IT Integration

Integrate the shipping and tracking features of our website into your system with a robust suite of tools. From transit data files and traditional EDI to web services, you can choose how integration with Dayton Freight helps you track and keep shipments moving smoothly.

Transit / Zip Code Data Files

Import transit information into your system by using the transit data files found at the link below, given in four configurations: Instruction File (PDF), Zip Code Listing file (text/csv), Service Center Transit Matrix file (text/csv), and Service Center Information file (text/csv). Contact customerservice@daytonfreight.com if these configurations do not suit your needs.

EDI – Electronic Data Interchange

Traditional EDI is also an option. Submit one or more of the request forms below to our EDI department. We currently support the following ANSI/X12 EDI transaction sets:

If you have questions or concerns about EDI transactions, please email them to customerintegration@daytonfreight.com or call the Dayton Freight IT Department at 800.860.5102.

API / Web Services

A suite of web services will allow you to integrate and utilize nearly all functions available on our website in your applications/systems. All services require the use of login credentials.

Before you can use our web services you will need to activate Web Services for your account. From the My Accounts page, select “Update Web Account Information,” select “Yes” for Enable Web Services and enter contact information.

Examples of some of the services provided are:

All of our earlier web services have been obsoleted and will be phased out over time.
