The challenge

Why this breaks without a TMS

Polling TMS status endpoints burns capacity and still leaves CRM, WMS, and notification tools minutes behind reality.

The ZingTMS approach

How we solve it

ZingTMS emits signed outbound webhooks when operational events occur, enabling event-driven automation across your stack.

What you can do

Outbound Webhooks is designed for daily freight operations - not slideware checklists.

Configurable endpoint URLs per tenant or integration

Retry policies for transient delivery failures

Signed payloads for receiver verification

Event filtering to reduce noise

Delivery logs for integration troubleshooting

Business benefits

Frequently asked questions

Straight answers for operations, IT, and finance evaluators.

Can webhook endpoints be tenant-specific?+

Yes. White-label and multi-tenant setups can route events to the correct subscriber endpoints.

What happens if a receiver is down?+

Retry policies attempt redelivery for transient failures, with logs for operators to investigate.

Do webhooks replace EDI status messages?+

No. Webhooks complement EDI and API channels - use the pattern that each trading partner requires.
