Interacting with the report

The report displays 50-day returns information for each trade lane, which, for the purposes of this report, simply refers to the parcel route from an origin warehouse to a destination market:

In addition to the global filters previously described, the report allows you to select whether to display data by Weight Group or Volume Group. These switches work in conjunction with the bands within the Parcel Weight and Parcel Volume filters.

The values in each 'trade lane' are as follows:

  • The Outbound Count is the total number of shipments despatched during the selected Manifest Date Range.

  • For the same dataset, the Printed Count is the total number of returns labels printed.

  • The Printed/Outbound value is the number of returns printed as a percentage of the Outbound Count.

  • The Activated Count is the total number of returns with tracking information. It indicates the number of returns shipments that have been actively entered into the carrier network.

  • The Activated/Printed value is the Activated Count as a percentage of the Printed Count.

  • The Activated/Outbound is the Activated Count as a percentage of the Outbound Count, telling you what percentage of your shipments are actively being returned to you.
