IFTMIN transport orders enter the planning board, IFTSTA status can follow connected vehicle events, and INVOIC keeps the invoice tied to the delivered load.
Inbound EDI Transport Order
UNB · Trading partner
EDIFACT Envelope
Planners spend hours each day navigating trading partner portals, re-typing load data, and fielding check calls that a machine should handle.
Each trading partner demands a separate login, a separate interface, and a separate workflow. Planners navigate unfamiliar portals just to accept an order, update a status, or submit an invoice. Every portal has different fields, different quirks, and different failure modes.
Without EDI, load details arrive by email, PDF, or portal download. Someone re-keys the origin, destination, pickup windows, rate, and special instructions into your TMS by hand. One transposed postcode or missed field means a missed pickup or a rejected invoice.
Trading partners call for status because they have no visibility into your operation. Each call pulls a planner away from planning. IFTSTA can send agreed milestones directly to the trading partner system.
IFTMIN delivers every transport order directly to your board, pre-filled. No portal logins. No re-keying.
Enter your carrier details and select your trading partners from our trading partner network. QTMS handles all EDIFACT mapping, UNB/UNH envelope configuration, and certification testing automatically. No separate messaging service is required.
Inbound IFTMIN transport orders appear on your planning board. Configure review rules based on lane preferences, rate minimums, and equipment availability. QTMS sends the approved IFTMBC response back to the trading partner.
IFTSTA shipment status messages transmit automatically as drivers hit milestones. Pickup, in-transit, and delivery events flow from your tachograph or GPS geofence triggers directly to trading partner systems. No check calls needed.
INVOIC freight invoices use delivered load data and submit electronically with line haul, fuel surcharges, and accessorials connected to the same record.
Every load touches the same three EDIFACT messages. QTMS automates all of them, so the trading partner, the driver, and your accounting team stay in sync without a single phone call.
Receive transport orders electronically from trading partners. Auto-accept based on your rules (lane preferences, rate minimums, equipment availability) or review and respond in one click.
Automated shipment status messages flow to trading partner systems as your drivers hit milestones. No more check-call interruptions. Trading partners see pickup, in-transit, and delivery events in real time.
Submit freight invoices electronically the moment a load delivers. No portals, no PDFs, no email attachments. Your invoice lands directly in the trading partner's accounting system.
IFTSTA fires the moment your driver hits a geofence. No call needed. Both sides move on.
