Dock scheduling

Integrate LoadingCalendar with your existing tools

The API gives your existing tools direct access to your dock schedule — reading and writing in both directions.

Gate access control

When a truck arrives at your gate, your access system checks the registration plate against the day's confirmed bookings. Entry is approved automatically for expected trucks — no manual verification needed.

No more unauthorised arrivals

Real-time slot availability

Your TMS or carrier portal queries live dock availability before a booking is made. Carriers see only genuinely open slots, respecting lead times, reservations, and business hours.

Carriers book into correct slots from day one

Automated booking creation

When an order is confirmed in your WMS or ERP, a dock appointment is created in LoadingCalendar automatically. No coordinator re-enters data from one system into another.

Zero manual data entry between systems

Loading status tracking

Your operations software receives live updates as a truck moves from New through Arrived, In Progress, to Done. Trigger invoicing, dispatch notifications, or shipment tracking automatically.

Downstream systems always reflect reality

Document exchange

Attach delivery notes, invoices, CMRs, and photos to a loading from your document management system. All paperwork is linked to the appointment and visible to warehouse staff and carriers.

All shipment paperwork in one place

Multi-site reporting

Pull loading data across all your warehouse locations into your BI tools or central dashboard. Filter by site, date range, direction, or carrier to track dock utilisation and identify bottlenecks.

Full visibility across all locations in one place
