Order Entry

Do you receive a large number of orders by email every day?

With AI Order Entry, e-Lips TMS automatically recognises order details from incoming documents and converts them directly into transport orders. Container numbers, loading and unloading addresses, cargo, references and other order information are automatically recognised and converted into a complete transport order in e-Lips TMS. This eliminates the need for manual data entry and reduces the risk of errors.

With e-Lips TMS, transport orders are automatically imported based on pre-defined settings. Files in CSV or XML format are imported directly and accurately, without the need for manual processing.

Thanks to the web-based nature of e-Lips TMS and the available API integrations, you can easily connect external systems and customer environments. APIs ensure fast, reliable communication between your organisation and your customers.

With API order entry, shipments are automatically booked and processed. The order process runs more efficiently, manual work is reduced and errors are prevented. Redundant tasks are eliminated, giving teams more time for day-to-day operations.

In addition, APIs provide real-time insight into data. Both you and your customers always have access to up-to-date information, such as order statuses and updates. This increases transparency, strengthens collaboration and ensures a professional customer experience.

Frequently recurring orders can be saved as templates. For each template, you can define fixed details, such as the customer, route, order type and journey details.

In the planning module, you can easily specify on which days and at what frequency these orders recur. e-Lips TMS then automatically creates the corresponding orders and journeys based on the selected template.

Multiple templates can be used simultaneously, meaning that recurring transport is created and scheduled entirely automatically. This saves time, prevents errors and ensures consistent planning.

e-Lips TMS supports a wide range of order entry methods, from simple point-to-point orders to complex logistics routes.

For container transport, orders can be configured with multiple stops, fixed instructions per location and detailed order data, such as closing times, vessel information, humidity and other specific requirements.

Intermodal transport is also fully supported. Multiple transport modes can be specified per order, such as road, barge and rail. The number of stops is unlimited, enabling complex logistics chains to be recorded automatically and clearly.

With EDI order entry in e-Lips TMS, you communicate directly and digitally with your customers. Orders are exchanged automatically and securely via Electronic Data Interchange (EDI), without manual entry. Our specialized team assists with setting up and managing EDI connections, ensuring everything aligns seamlessly with your processes.

EDI works with fixed data standards, which ensures consistent and reliable data in e-Lips TMS. Orders are processed in real time, making information immediately available and allowing processes to run faster and more efficiently.

Additionally, e-Lips TMS supports various EDI documents widely used within the transport sector. This ensures that order entry aligns perfectly with the systems of customers and partners, providing complete overview and control.
