R+L Carriers LTL Rates, BOL, Pickup, Shipment Tracking, Documents, and Notifications – Available for Integration with FTM in Salesforce.
R+L Carriers documents a broad API suite across the LTL shipment lifecycle – ten named API tools covering rate quote, BOL, pickup, tracking, documents, notifications, claim status, and more, plus EDI. FTM can integrate each so the R+L carrier workflow lives on the Salesforce transportation record, based on your account configuration and integration scope.
Customer-Specific R+L Rates and Transit ETAs, Returned to the FTM Lane Quote in Salesforce.
R+L’s Rate Quote API returns customer-specific LTL rates based on freight class, weight, origin, destination, and accessorials. The Transit Times API returns ZIP-to-ZIP ETAs. FTM can integrate both so rate and ETA are returned together on the Lane Quote without leaving Salesforce.
All values are illustrative. Actual rates and transit times are returned by R+L at time of request based on your account and freight profile. Rates are not guaranteed; a new request may be needed to confirm pricing before tendering. ETAs are estimates, not guaranteed delivery dates.
BOL Creation, Shipping Labels, and Pickup Scheduling – All Available via R+L’s eBOL and Pickup APIs.
R+L’s eBOL API creates the Bill of Lading, generates the PDF, and produces shipping labels in 13 available styles. The Pickup Request API schedules the pickup and links a quote number. As of April 2026, a Pickup Request History endpoint provides chronological pickup event history.
R+L’s eBOL API creates, prints, and edits Bills of Lading. FTM can integrate BOL creation from the shipment record, generating the BOL document and shipping labels without navigating to MyRLC separately.
R+L’s Pickup Request API schedules pickups directly with the terminal that services the origin location. FTM can integrate pickup scheduling from the shipment record, linking the quote number and tracking the pickup lifecycle.
R+L Shipment Status, Estimated Delivery Dates, and Real-Time Push Notifications – Available on the FTM Record.
R+L’s Shipment Tracing API returns up-to-date statuses and estimated delivery dates. Their Notification API delivers real-time push notifications for shipment events. FTM can integrate both so R+L carrier status is visible on the transportation record in Salesforce without logging into MyRLC separately.
R+L describes this API as returning “up to date statuses, Estimated Delivery Dates” on shipments. FTM can integrate tracing to surface R+L carrier status on the FTM transportation record.
R+L describes their Notification API as “a robust system for creating and managing push notifications.” R+L explicitly confirms real-time push notifications. FTM can integrate this to trigger notifications on shipment events without polling the Tracing API continuously.
Illustrative only. R+L’s Shipment Tracing API returns “up to date statuses and Estimated Delivery Dates” – not a guaranteed delivery window. Pickup Number tracing is in beta (Jan 2026) and may not always return fully accurate results.
Shipment Documents, Claim Status, and Activity Reports – Retrievable via API and Available on the FTM Record.
R+L’s Document Retrieval API retrieves shipment-related documents. The Claim Status API returns claim status by PRO or claim number. The Activity History API returns a shipment activity report. FTM can integrate each so this data surfaces on the Salesforce transportation record rather than requiring a MyRLC portal login.
R+L’s Document Retrieval API retrieves documents related to a shipment, including BOL, delivery receipt, and other shipping documents. FTM can integrate document retrieval so documents are accessible from the FTM record without navigating to MyRLC.
R+L’s Claim Status API returns the status of a cargo claim by PRO or claim number. FTM can integrate claim status retrieval to surface claim information on the FTM record – not to file or resolve claims, but to surface status.
R+L’s Activity History API returns a report of shipment activity. FTM can integrate activity history retrieval to surface shipment event records on the FTM transportation record, supporting audit and operations review.
R+L’s Service Center API locates R+L service centers and service points based on ZIP code. FTM can integrate this to surface the servicing terminal for a given shipment origin or destination.
R+L Manages the LTL Network. FTM Manages the Transportation Record in Salesforce.
R+L provides the LTL infrastructure – rates, BOL, pickup, tracking, documents, and claims. FTM provides the Salesforce-native layer where all that carrier data connects to the transportation record that drives quoting, dispatch, and operations.
R+L Documents a Broad REST API Suite Across the LTL Shipment Lifecycle. FTM Brings Every Layer into Salesforce.
R+L officially documents APIs for Rate Quote, Transit Times, Bill of Lading, Pickup Request, Shipment Tracing, Document Retrieval, Service Center, Notification, Claim Status, and Activity History – ten named API tools covering the shipment lifecycle from quote to claim, plus a documented EDI suite. FTM can integrate each layer so R+L is fully managed from the Salesforce transportation record.
What Changes When R+L is Connected to FTM in Salesforce
Without FTM integration, R+L data lives in MyRLC – looked up separately from Salesforce. With FTM, R+L rate, status, documents, and notifications connect to the transportation record where operations run.
