    The Transport Management System (TMS) allows companies to efficiently manage the transportation of goods. Key processes include creating shipping orders and documents, allocating costs, and paying vendors. The system provides advantages like automatic freight cost calculation and verification, delivery performance reporting, and avoidance of manual data collection. While it requires creating additional shipping documents, the TMS overall improves visibility into freight liability, supports better transporter assessment, and streamlines reporting.
