What is TForce Freight EDI?

TForce Freight EDI is the structured electronic exchange of warehouse shipping orders, shipping advices, purchase orders, and invoices between TForce Freight and its trading partners across the Logistics & Transportation industry. It replaces manual freight documentation with validated, standards-based transactions, synchronizing shipment instructions and confirmations directly with ERP and warehouse systems for accurate, compliant freight operations.

Operational Focus

Warehouse shipping accuracy and freight compliance readiness focus

  • Validate every 940 warehouse shipping order and 945 advice against TForce Freight routing and compliance requirements before release.

  • Synchronize shipment instructions, tracking milestones, and billing data directly with ERP and warehouse management systems.

  • Maintain stable AS2 and VAN connections so time-sensitive freight documents transmit without delays or retransmissions.

CLOUD EDI PLATFORM

TForce Freight EDI Integration
& Compliance

When TFI International rebranded UPS Freight as TForce Freight in 2021, it preserved a routing guide famous for its discipline — and its unforgiving chargeback policy. Operating from Richmond, Virginia, this less-than-truckload powerhouse expects every EDI 940 warehouse shipping order and EDI 945 shipping advice to arrive flawless over AS2 or VAN, backed by GS1-128 barcode data and branded DSV packing slips. One malformed segment, and the penalty lands squarely on your P&L. Cogential IT's fully managed Cloud EDI platform absorbs that risk for you — pre-configured segment mapping, a real-time Validation Engine, and a Zero-Chargeback Guarantee, with zero demands on your IT team.

  • 940 → 945, Orchestrated End-to-End
    Inbound EDI 940 warehouse shipping orders and outbound EDI 945 shipping advices arrive pre-mapped to TForce Freight's exact specifications — segment by segment, element by element — so releases and confirmations flow with no manual rekeying.
  • AS2 & VAN, Pre-Connected
    Whether your TForce Freight traffic rides direct AS2 or a VAN, our cloud platform manages transport, certificates, and 997/999 acknowledgments behind the scenes — no middleware to license, no servers to babysit.
  • GS1-128 Labels, Print-Ready
    Carton labels are generated to TForce Freight's GS1-128 standard with correct application identifiers and SSCC serialization, so your freight clears their terminals without compliance holds or relabel fees.
  • Zero-Chargeback Guarantee
    Our Validation Engine screens every 940 and 945 against TForce Freight's business rules before transmission. If a validated document still draws a chargeback, we absorb it — that's the Cogential IT promise.

Compliance Intelligence

Where does TForce Freight compliance usually get stuck?

Most freight compliance issues happen when warehouse operations and EDI mapping are managed by disconnected teams.

01
Do your 940 shipping orders match TForce Freight routing guides?

Mismatched ship-to locations, service levels, or handling instructions trigger document rejections and delayed freight pickups daily.

Resolve ?
02
Is your 945 shipping advice aligned with physical cartons?

Barcode labels and packing slips must match 945 carton details or freight moves with reconciliation errors.

Resolve ?
03
Can your ERP handle warehouse documents without manual re-entry?

Disconnected systems force teams to rekey shipping orders, causing errors that surface later as billing disputes.

VALIDATION ENGINE

Validate TForce Freight
EDI in Minutes

TForce Freight doesn't grade on a curve, and neither does our Validation Engine. Before a single 940 or 945 leaves your system, it is tested against TForce Freight's live routing guide — segment sequencing, GS1-128 barcode data integrity, branded DSV packing slip requirements, and AS2/VAN acknowledgment rules. Failures surface in plain English with the exact segment and element flagged, so your team corrects a field instead of absorbing a fine. The outcome: 99.9% data accuracy, first-pass document acceptance, and chargebacks that simply stop occurring.

  • Errors Caught Before Transmission
    Real-time validation parses each 940 and 945 against TForce Freight's unique rules — mandatory segments, qualifiers, date formats — and quarantines flawed documents before they ever touch their gateway.
  • Plain-English Error Insight
    No cryptic EDI jargon. You see the failing segment, the offending element, and the exact fix — whether it's a missing mark-for location on a 940 or a carton-level detail gap on a 945.
  • Barcode & Packing Slip Assurance
    Compliance checks extend past the document: GS1-128 label data and branded DSV packing slips are verified for format and completeness, so physical and digital compliance match at every TForce Freight dock.
  • Total Visibility, Zero IT Load
    One dashboard tracks every transmission, acknowledgment, and exception in real time — while our fully managed team monitors the pipeline around the clock so your staff never touch the plumbing.
