What Routex TMS does
- Order and load management — receive shipments from your ERP or by EDI 204; consolidate into efficient loads
- Route planning and optimisation — plan multi-stop routes by distance, time windows, vehicle capacity and cost
- Carrier management and tendering — tender loads to carriers, compare rates and track acceptance
- Dispatch and driver app — assign trips, share documents and capture proof of delivery on mobile
- Real-time tracking — GPS and status updates, shared with customers by EDI 214 or API
- Freight audit and settlement — rate calculation, accessorials, carrier invoices and EDI 210
- Reports and dashboards — on-time performance, cost per km, utilisation and exceptions
Built for integration
Because Routex is built by an EDI company, it speaks your partners’ language out of the box:
| Document | Purpose |
|---|---|
| 204 | Motor carrier load tender |
| 990 | Response to load tender |
| 214 | Shipment status |
| 210 | Freight invoice |
| 856 / DESADV | Ship notices from shipper systems |
It integrates with SAP, ERPNext, Dynamics and other ERPs, our WMS, and accounting systems through APIs.
Who it’s for
- Carriers and fleet operators who need dispatch, tracking and billing in one place
- 3PLs and freight brokers managing many shippers and carriers
- Manufacturers and distributors running their own outbound transport
Project example: TMS with EDI integration
A US trucking company replaced spreadsheets and phone calls with Routex TMS. Load tenders now arrive by EDI 204, dispatch happens in the TMS, status updates go back to shippers automatically as 214s, and invoices go out as 210s the day of delivery — shortening the billing cycle and removing manual status calls.
