Logistics challenges without an integrated DB Schenker connector

  • Archaic and time-consuming reservation processes

Booking freight transport by email or telephone is a slow process, lacking traceability and prone to communication errors. The time spent by your teams confirming the details of each shipment is a hidden cost that weighs on your profitability.

  • Time-consuming manual generation of consignment notes (CMR)

Manually filling in a CMR for each pallet is a repetitive task with low added value, but high risk. An error in address, number of parcels or weight can lead to disputes, delays and significant additional costs when invoicing.

  • Lack of visibility on current shipments

Without direct integration, tracking your freight shipments requires you to log on to the DB Schenker portal or contact customer service. This reactive approach prevents you from anticipating delays and proactively informing your own customers.

  • Heterogeneous processes hamper growth

If you use DB Schenker for freight and other carriers for courier services, your teams have to master several tools and working methods. This complexity slows down the integration of new employees, and makes it difficult to apply uniform shipping rules to optimize all your transport flows.

FAQ - Frequently asked questions

Yes, absolutely. Our platform is designed to handle the complexity of freight transport. The DB Schenker connector has been specifically developed to automate palletized courier and charter flows. It manages the generation of pallet labels, the issue of consignment notes (CMR) and the transmission of transport orders for shipments weighing several hundred kilos.

Yes, always. The connector uses your own DB Schenker contract information. You enter your identifiers (API keys) so that the connection is made directly between your environment and their system. This means you retain 100% of your pricing conditions and commercial relationship.

The process is automated. Once your shipments are ready and the transport documents generated in our system, you can transmit the transport order (ASN – Advance Shipping Notice) to DB Schenker via the API. This electronic transmission triggers the scheduling of pick-up at your warehouse according to the agreed terms, without the need for a confirmation call or email.

Yes. One of the major benefits of integration is unified traceability. The tracking status of your freight shipments (picked up, in transit, in delivery, delivered) is automatically transferred to our platform. This means you can manage all your flows, whatever the carrier or type of shipment (parcel, pallet), from a single dashboard.
