Shipper TMS - Creating a Direct Load-offer

Table of Contents

    Introduction

    In Shipper TMS, you can send a load directly to a specific carrier with a direct load offer, instead of posting it to the Super Loadboard. The carrier receives the offer and can accept it from their end.

    How to Send a Direct Load Offer

    Step 1: Log In to Shipper TMS

    • Log in to your Shipper TMS account.

    Step 2: Create or Open the Order

    • Create a new order and enter the details, including vehicles, pickup, delivery, and carrier payment.
    • If the order already exists, open it from the Orders page.

    Step 3: Click Send Offer

    • At the top of the order, click Send Offer. It's next to the Post to SLB button.

    Step 4: Find the Carrier

    • In the Send offer window, use Search Carrier to find the carrier by Name & USDOT. Enter at least 3 characters to start searching.
    • Or, pick a carrier from the Suggested tab (carriers who often move loads in this lane) or the Previously Dispatched tab.
    • To set dates and payment for the offer, click Show Dates & Payment.
    Send offer window in Shipper TMS with a Search Carrier field set to Name & USDOT, a Show Dates & Payment option, Suggested and Previously Dispatched tabs, and a Send Offer button
    Tip: Search by USDOT number to make sure you select the right carrier, since several carriers can have similar names.

    Step 5: Send the Offer

    • Once you've selected the correct carrier, click Send Offer.
    • The load offer is sent to the carrier, and they can accept it from their end.
