You get your rate con PDF from a broker or shipper via email these days. So why should you have to copy/paste – or worse, TYPE! – that data into your trucking management software? It’s the 21st Century! Where’s the automatic load entry into my trucking management software?
Let’s face it. Copy and paste with a PDF isn’t hard, but it’s… easy to mess up. Who hasn’t gone back to a form and realized they’ve put the info in the wrong place? We’ve all done it. But worse is when we have to retype everything.
We’ve heard truckers over the years say it’s the #1 reason that switching to an online trucking management software was too challenging. Pretty much everyone is using some kind of software now, whether it’s a system like TruckingOffice PRO or a hodge-podge of Google Docs, Sheets, and Maps.

Automatic Load Entry?
Nobody likes load entry. It’s one of those things that has to be done for the invoices, but that doesn’t mean we love it. It’s a task that takes a bit too much time, you know?
TruckingOffice PRO just rolled out a new feature this week – automatic load entry. Import the PDF into TruckingOffice PRO and the data is filled in for you. All you have to do it make sure the system did the work correctly and press submit. Then all the features you love in TruckingOffice PRO’s complete trucking management system start –
- dispatch and routing
- expense records management
- BOL image
- invoice creation
all go to work so you don’t have to.
Import the rate con PDF? That’s it?
That’s it.
Automatically entered into TruckingOffice PRO?
Yep.
How much does it cost?
It’s free with TruckingOffice PRO. No extra charge if you’re already using it.

This is good but it is creating new customers and address for ones that we already have in there. This causes issues when exporting to quickbooks, etc. It thinks they are all new because how we have it entered isn’t exactly as the AI is reading it on the pdf.
Try merging the new address with old one by replacing the old one. After that, update Quickbooks to match the new one. Then when using the auto import it will not create new ones. For more help send us an email support@truckingoffice.com
