Once a load is tendered and the carrier is not set up for auto-booking, what is the next activity for the load?

When a load is tendered and the carrier is not set up for auto-booking, the next activity for the load is to book it manually. In this scenario, the process requires a human intervention to confirm and arrange the transport of the load, as the carrier's system isn't automated to handle bookings automatically.

In the context of logistics and supply chain management, booking typically involves confirming that a carrier will accept and transport the load as specified in the tender. This step is crucial to ensure that the load will be picked up and transported as planned, thereby maintaining the timeline for delivery and fulfillment of shipping obligations.

The other options relate to different stages or actions in the logistics process. Auditing an invoice happens after delivery and completion of the transaction, while rejecting the tender implies that the load will not be transported, which is not applicable once the load is already tendered. Marking the load as delivered takes place after the completion of the transportation process, which is not relevant at this stage.
