What is TNT Logistics EDI?

Operational Focus
Where TNT Logistics compliance usually gets stuck?
Most disruptions occur when warehouse execution data and carrier visibility are not unified with EDI documents.
01
Are barcode labels incorrectly mapped to the ASN?
Mismatched label data triggers carton rejections and delays in shipment handoff to TNT's carriers.
02
Does your EDI 945 advice fail warehouse reconciliation?
Inaccurate warehouse shipping advice disrupts inventory alignment and causes billing discrepancies with TNT.
03
Is real-time 214 status data missing from your TMS?
Without live shipment tracking, you lose visibility to service-level penalties and last-mile delivery failures.
