Can I use this to generate a daily delayed shipment exception report from a tracker?

Yes. Set the column to your status field, choose 'equals', and enter your delayed status value. Run it each day on the latest export to produce a consistent exception extract.

How do I pull all shipments above a weight threshold for a surcharge review?

Set the column to your weight field, choose 'greater than', and enter your threshold. Rows with non-numeric weight values are skipped automatically, keeping the output clean.

Does this work on shipment files with separate tabs per region or week?

Yes. Each worksheet containing the specified column is filtered independently. All matching rows appear in the output, organized by their original sheet.

Can I filter by a partial carrier name to catch all variants of a carrier's entries?

Yes. Use the 'contains' condition with the carrier name or abbreviation. Any row where the carrier column includes that text will be included in the output, covering name variants and code suffixes.

Filter Shipment and Carrier Excel Data Down to the Rows That Need Action

Logistics coordinators manage shipment trackers, carrier reports, and freight exports in Excel that combine hundreds or thousands of rows across lanes, carriers, and statuses. Every exception review, carrier audit, or overweight shipment check requires filtering down to the relevant rows — and doing it repeatedly in the source file creates version control and visibility risks. Deliteful applies the filter and returns a separate clean file.

Practical logistics filtering tasks include: extracting all rows where Status equals 'Delayed' for an exception report, pulling shipments where Carrier contains a specific carrier name for a performance review, or isolating freight rows where Weight > 500 for an oversize surcharge audit. These are daily and weekly recurring tasks in any coordinating role managing more than a handful of lanes or carriers.

Deliteful processes each worksheet independently, so multi-tab shipment workbooks — common when tracking is split by region, lane, or week — are each filtered in one pass. The output is a new .xlsx file with data values only. Because the source file is never modified, the filtered extract can be shared with a carrier, a warehouse team, or a finance partner without any risk of the master tracker being altered.

How it works

1
Upload your shipment tracker or carrier export
Upload the .xlsx or .xls file containing your logistics or freight data.
2
Enter the column to filter on
Type the exact column header — 'Status', 'Carrier', 'Weight', 'Origin', or your equivalent field.
3
Set your condition
Choose equals, contains, greater than, or less than and enter your filter value — a status string, carrier name, or numeric threshold.
4
Download the exception or audit extract
Receive a filtered Excel file with only the matching shipment rows — ready to share or escalate.
