Make sure you are ready to respond with a confident “Yes” when asked if you meet a shipper or broker’s Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) requirements. You don’t have to become a data expert or invest in an expensive software solution that is just too much for your size business.
Now there is an easy way to receive and accept load tenders—even send status updates and invoices. FreightLaunch is an easy-to-use web or mobile application that won’t interfere with the way you work today, and will help you get into the preferred carrier pool pick up lanes that will keep your trucks on the road.
One of the common challenges in the logistics industry has been the delay in carrier billing due to lost or delayed handoff of proof of delivery (POD) and backup documents that detail authorized accessorial charges.
Now you can request photos of these documents via text, directly through FreightLaunch. The driver simply replies to that text and uploads the photos—there’s no special app for them to install.
When you access the photos within the load details in FreightLaunch, you have the backup that you need to verify any extra charges and avoid invoicing delays. So now FreightLaunch helps you satisfy the shipper requirements for EDI and makes it possible for you to complete billing as soon as the same day!
