Document Management

📌 Overview

Why Document Management Matters in Trucking

In trucking, getting paid often comes down to documentation. A missing signature, unreadable POD, incorrect invoice number, or RC mismatch can delay payment or trigger chargebacks. Our dispatch paperwork support helps carriers keep a clean record of every load from booking to delivery.

Best fit

  • Owner-operators who want faster billing and fewer delays
  • Small fleets that need consistent paperwork workflow
  • Carriers using factoring or broker quick pay

What we organize by load

  • Rate Confirmation (RC) + updated terms
  • BOL and POD (clean scans)
  • Invoice + required backup
  • Detention / TONU and accessorial evidence

  • Broker packet assistance (as needed)
  • Document refresh reminders when updated

Load documentation

  • RC storage & change tracking
  • BOL/POD upload + legibility check
  • Load notes for proof timelines

Billing & claims

  • Invoice prep + backup packet
  • Factoring/quick-pay readiness
  • Detention/TONU documentation support
🧠 Workflow

How the Paperwork Workflow Works

Our goal is simple: every load ends with a clean packet. That means RC verified, POD readable, accessorial proof documented, and invoice backups complete.

1) Collect

We gather required docs and confirm what the broker (or factoring partner) requires for billing.

2) Organize

Docs are linked to the load record so nothing is floating in email chains or text threads.

3) Submit & Archive

We package invoice backups, submit per your instructions, and keep everything retrievable for disputes/audits.

🎯 Best Practices

Paperwork That Protects Your Rate

  • RC accuracy: accessorial language and detention rules must match what’s submitted
  • POD speed: faster POD = faster invoice submission = faster pay cycle
  • Proof matters: timestamps, notes, and communication help get detention/TONU approved
  • Anti-fraud hygiene: consistent paperwork helps spot mismatched broker/shipper details

Document Matrix (What We Store & How It’s Used)

This is the “why” behind each document. When carriers know what matters, they submit cleaner paperwork and get paid faster.

Document Primary use Common issues prevented
W-9 / COI / Authority (MC/DOT) Broker setup, compliance, factoring Carrier packet rejection, compliance holds
Rate Confirmation (RC) Rate/terms, appointments, accessorial rules Rate mismatch disputes, denied detention
BOL / POD Proof of delivery for invoicing/factoring Unreadable scans, missing signatures
Invoice + Backup Broker payment, quick pay, factor submission Missing docs, wrong invoice numbers
Detention / TONU / Accessorials Evidence for approval and payment Denied claims due to missing proof
