How do carriers respond to a Integrity Express EDI 204 Load Tender?

Carriers respond to a Integrity Express 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. Integrity Express 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 Integrity Express 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. Integrity Express 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, Integrity Express'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 Integrity Express transactions.

Can Integrity Express EDI 204 handle multi-stop shipments?

Yes, Integrity Express EDI 204 supports multi-stop shipments through multiple S5 (Stop Off Details) segments.
