Revenue Management was a newly designed department for resolving data issues on pended waybills in the KCS rate engine system called MCS. All inbound customer billing was manually matched by rail clerks between a rate authority document and corresponding price to send out customer billing. The new team of 8 individuals absorbed the work of 20+ manual entry clerks using the electronic Revenue Management System.The key was to determine root problems in the worklist waybills and established long-term solutions so waybills would rate automatically in the new system. Worked with the KCS Marketing team, foreign line carriers, and direct KCS customers to correct Electronic Data Interchange transmissions.
