The modeling module works with a subset of the shipping data base and the rates record keeping capabilities and allows "What if" questions to be addressed by modeling on real transportation costs. Sensitivity analysis can be performed on various transportation factors such as rates, carriers, shipping or destination points, shipment weights etc. The module provides for changes to be made and generates the revised shipping costs based on model specifications. Detail or summary reports can be produced to view the changes generated by the model. Extract files can be generated from the modeling data for access by spreadsheets such as EXCEL or for integration with corporate modeling systems.
The FAIS production data base provides the source for extraction of the data to be utilized in modelingA facility is included to generate extract text files that may be exported to desktop facilities such as spreadsheets or to corporate systems
Extensive training is required in the extract and analytical methodologies employed by FAIS Modeling
