Module connection with External Systems
Link your TMS with third-party systems using the APIs of EasyTrans Software

EasyTrans Software offers various possibilities to connect external software with the Transport Management System (TMS) EasyTrans. As an example, EasyTrans Software works with a large number of partners to provide specific functionalities. Ready-made connections are available with accounting software, systems of logistics service providers and various other branch-specific software. However, there are so many software packages available that it is impossible to offer a turnkey solution for all of them. That is why we offer the module Connection with External Systems which gives access to the APIs and EDI of EasyTrans Software.

API’s EasyTrans Software
To give you (or your client/carrier/other external party) the possibility to develop your own connection – between your TMS EasyTrans and another system – EasyTrans Software developed an API. The API of EasyTrans Software makes it possible to exchange information with systems of external parties in a structured and uniform manner. This allows you to connect your Transport Management System with third party systems, such as your customer’s system. The required documentation of the APIs – for the programming work – can be downloaded from our website: Documentation APIs.
EasyTrans also supports APIs and links from third parties. The possibilities and requirements for such connections will always be discussed in advance so that we can offer you a perfectly fitting solution.
EDI EasyTrans Software
EasyTrans Software has developed a standard EDI basis in order to be able to establish connections via EDI between the Transport Management System EasyTrans and an external system. From this (EDI) basic platform we will be able to help you develop a tailor-made connection. In consultation with you, we determine the requirements and possibilities of a connection between both systems. Of course, we will help you with finding the best solution. Based on this consultation, our developers will make an estimate of the time and costs involved. After which – in consultation with you, of course – the connection will be developed.

Examples of connections with external systems

By using the APIs and/or EDI of EasyTrans Software, a direct connection can be set-up between EasyTrans and other software. Examples of connections with external systems are:
