### Improve freight order management.
The finance director at a shipping company wanted to further streamline their freight payment processes. Initially, new orders were submitted using a batch process, but any order updates or cancellations were handled manually. Because many orders change after they were initiated, the finance director selected to use the Freight Payment Transactions API to submit new orders, make updates to existing orders and cancel orders to save time. Any status changes, including updates to specific order details or cancellations, are now sent to U.S. Bank Freight Payment directly and no longer require manual data entry.

### Search for transaction details.
The transportation manager at a carrier company wants to streamline their receivables process. By subscribing to the Freight Payment Transactions API, the company can pull in electronic order details to create invoices that are aligned with the orders and more likely to match the line-item details. Once the invoice is within U.S. Bank Freight Payment, the API also enables carriers and shippers to resolve exceptions, validate statuses and confirm payment processing details,  so trading partners can close their respective end-to-end financial reporting, payment and billing cycles.
### Exchange and automate the supporting documents.
The receivables manager at a trucking company and a retail transportation manager want their respective accounts receivable and accounts payable teams focused on more valuable tasks instead of spending so much time resolving invoice exceptions. Both managers can use the Freight Payment Transactions API to automate the exchange of supporting documents such as invoices, bills of lading, weight certificates and delivery receipts. Now, the trucking company can send these documents to U.S. Bank Freight Payment in real time, so they are immediately available for retrieval by the shipper for their company's retention policies.

### Manage invoices.
The receivables manager at a trucking company wants to further streamline their billing processes. While creating invoices was not problematic, the team was challenged by managing updates. With the Freight Payment Transactions API, new invoices and adjustments to existing invoices can be submitted in real time, saving time and reducing exceptions for their shippers, too.
