Masters

Masters are the foundational data records used across LogixFlow. They reduce repetitive data entry and ensure your operational and finance teams work from the same source of truth. Once a Master is created, it can be reused in shipments, documents, automation rules, and invoices.

Why Masters Matter

  • Faster operations: Select pre-defined records instead of typing the same details repeatedly.
  • Clean invoicing: Charges, services, and parties stay consistent across invoices and currencies.
  • Better automation: Rules can trigger based on specific customers, services, airlines, or vendors.
  • Reliable reporting: Dashboards and reports remain accurate when Master data is standardized.

Common Actions Across All Masters

  • Create: Add a new record with required identifiers, contacts, and operational details.
  • Edit: Update details when changes occur (contacts, addresses, rates, compliance details).
  • Activate / Deactivate: Disable old or unused records without deleting historical references.
  • Search & Filter: Quickly find records using codes, names, categories, or status.

Tips for Maintaining Clean Masters

  • Use consistent naming conventions (codes, abbreviations, branch prefixes) to avoid duplicates.
  • Deactivate records instead of deleting them to preserve shipment and invoice history.
  • Review Charge and Service Masters periodically to ensure rates and billing rules remain correct.
