TMS | Setup

TMS | Setup is the central setup page for N24 TMS. Use it to manage modules, transport costs, address data, and number series.

Note

To open the configuration page, type TMS | Setup in the search bar.

🛠️ Page Actions

  • Verify Configuration checks the data required to create transport orders.
  • The TMS group contains setup pages available in the product.

🚀 Transport Order Settings

Use these settings when creating transport orders.

  • Update Customer/Vendor Cards — Enabled by default. After you manually change non-blank address data that differs from the related card, the wizard asks whether to update it. The setting applies to the shared TMS/Apaczka wizard and the GFL and Raben wizards. When disabled, the wizard does not compare data with the related card or display the question.

⚙️ Enable Modules

  1. Open TMS | Setup.
  2. In the pane on the right, open TMS | Modules.
  3. Select a module and choose Enable Module or Disable Module.
  4. Refresh TMS | Setup to see fields and actions related to the new module state.

Selecting a module name opens the relevant documentation page explaining its setup and functions.

Some fields and actions are available only after you enable a module. See Transport Order Details Sent to Carriers for an overview of what TMS sends to each carrier.

🖨️ Label and Confirmation Printing

In the Label Printing section, select how transport-order labels should be handled:

  • Manual downloads the PDF when you select Print Label.
  • PrintNode sends the label directly to the selected PrintNode printer. Enter PrintNode Printer ID; the printer name is filled in automatically.

In the Turn-In Confirmation Printing section, select how collective Apaczka turn-in confirmations should be handled. Manual downloads the PDF, while PrintNode sends the document to the selected printer. For PrintNode, enter Turn-In PrintNode Printer ID.

After a successful PrintNode print, the transport-order card shows the print date and time. Manual downloads are not counted as printed.

🔄 Automatic Status Updates

The status update queue retrieves current information for orders handled by Apaczka, GFL, and Raben.

  1. Open TMS | Setup.
  2. In the TMS | Queues panel, find the TMS status update queue.
  3. Select Create, then confirm starting the queue or select Start.
  4. To run the update immediately, select Run Now.

The queue runs every 15 minutes. The panel shows its status, the last completed run, and the next scheduled run. Use Stop and Start to control the queue.
