    It means we set the appointment for 0900 today but will tell you to be there by 0700... True story...

    Actually the "A" means that the driver that commits to load must take it to final and deliver on-time. Driver is not allowed to t-call the load for any reason. Got this info fron my FM (Fleet Manager).

    Then this would be nice to know, like in the comments section before a driver commits. I have also seen where the A is in the PU section, in fact just had one the other day, unless the A in the PU section also means no t-call.

    Actually, its a heads up about what kind of customer we will be dealing with and we all know what A stands for. And that's the truth!
