DAT Integrated Into Transportation Workflows
DAT helps transportation teams find capacity. FTM helps teams manage everything that happens next, from carrier selection and dispatch through billing, visibility, and reporting.
Finding Capacity Is Only The Beginning
DAT helps identify freight opportunities and carrier capacity. FTM connects those activities to operational workflows, customer records, financial processes, and reporting inside Salesforce.

The moment capacity is found is the moment the operational work begins. FTM is where that work happens.
One Transportation Record
DAT may help find capacity, but the load, customer, carrier, dispatch, invoice, and reporting records all live inside Salesforce through FTM.
Sourcing a load in DAT is one event. Everything that happens after, assigning a carrier, dispatching the load, updating the customer, generating the invoice, reporting on the lane, happens on a single record inside Salesforce.
Nothing gets re-entered between systems. The same load record that started with a DAT-sourced carrier is the record dispatch works from, finance bills from, and leadership reports from.
What Changes Operationally
Connecting DAT to FTM does not just move data. It changes how the operational day runs after capacity is found.

These workflow visuals show how broker, shipper, and carrier activity connects to the transportation record after capacity is found.

Built For More Than Freight Matching
Once a load is booked, FTM manages the operational, financial, and customer-facing work that follows.
AutoFill Can Continue The Workflow
Once a load is booked, the rate confirmation and other documents that follow can populate the rest of the record automatically.
What This Actually Changes For Your Team
Capacity Is Only Valuable When Carrier Data Is Managed
A carrier sourced through DAT still needs onboarding, compliance tracking, dispatch coordination, and settlement. FTM manages that carrier record for as long as the relationship lasts, not just for one load.
Onboarding, compliance documents, dispatch history, and settlement all attach to the same carrier record. A carrier found once in DAT does not have to be re-evaluated from scratch on the next load.
