What is a AGX CARRIERS EDI 204 Motor Carrier Load Tender?
A AGX CARRIERS EDI 204 is an electronic request from a shipper or broker to a carrier to transport a load.

How do carriers respond to a AGX CARRIERS EDI 204 Load Tender?
Carriers respond to a AGX CARRIERS 204 Load Tender with an EDI 990 (Response to a Load Tender). The 990 includes an acceptance or rejection code — carriers can accept the load as tendered, accept with modifications, or decline. AGX CARRIERS typically expects a 990 response within a specific timeframe (often 30 minutes to 2 hours). Failure to respond may result in the load being retendered to another carrier. Stacksync automates 990 responses based on your fleet capacity and dispatch rules, ensuring timely acceptance of profitable loads and automatic declination when capacity is full.

What is a SCAC code and why does AGX CARRIERS require it for EDI 204?
A SCAC (Standard Carrier Alpha Code) is a unique 2-to-4 letter identifier assigned by the National Motor Freight Traffic Association (NMFTA) to transportation carriers. AGX CARRIERS uses SCAC codes in EDI 204 tenders to identify the carrier being tendered the load, and carriers must include their SCAC in the 990 response and subsequent status updates (214). Without a valid SCAC, AGX CARRIERS's system cannot route the tender or track the shipment. Stacksync stores your SCAC code and automatically includes it in all outbound EDI documents, ensuring proper carrier identification across all AGX CARRIERS transactions.

Can AGX CARRIERS EDI 204 handle multi-stop shipments?
Yes, AGX CARRIERS EDI 204 supports multi-stop shipments through multiple S5 (Stop Off Details) segments.
