Illustrative only. Connection method, availability and data scope are subject to technical review and agreement.

  • Less manual re-entry
  • Connected workflows
  • Clearer information flow
  • Security in the discussion

Two approaches. One conversation.

API or EDI: what is the difference?

The right approach depends on your system, the information being exchanged and the way your team works.

API

Application programming interface

An API lets software request or exchange specific information through a defined interface. It can suit workflows where an application needs a targeted interaction with another system.

Discuss the required interactions, fields and update frequency.

EDI

Electronic data interchange

EDI exchanges structured business messages between organisations using agreed formats and mappings. It can suit repeatable document and transaction flows between trading partners.

Discuss message formats, mapping rules and exchange schedules.

Neither method guarantees real-time updates. Supported methods, message formats, data fields and exchange frequency are agreed only after technical review.

Potential integration workflows

Start with the handoff you want to improve.

These are discussion areas, not a catalogue of ready-to-activate connections. We first assess what is practical for your systems and shipment scope.

Quote requests

Explore sharing shipment requirements from your system to support a quotation workflow, with required fields and response handling defined together.

Shipment milestones

Discuss which shipment events could support your operations, how references are matched and when updates would be available.

Shipping documents

Review document types, permissions and exchange requirements so the right records can reach the right team.

ERP, TMS & WMS workflows

Map the handoffs between your enterprise, transport or warehouse systems and the shipping processes you want to connect.

From discussion to validation

A considered path to integration.

  1. Discuss the workflow

    Tell us about your systems, shipment activity and the manual steps you want to reduce.

  2. Review technical fit

    Together, review feasibility, data availability, formats, access controls and implementation responsibilities.

  3. Map & validate

    For an agreed scope, validate field mappings, sample exchanges, exception handling and acceptance criteria.

  4. Plan the handover

    Agree readiness checks, operational ownership and support arrangements before any production use.

Tell us what needs to connect.

Include your system or platform, the workflow you have in mind, the data you need and your preferred timeline. Our team can discuss the requirements and next steps with you.
