DynamoDocs automates Acumatica document entry for logistics and 3PL providers. For logistics and 3PL providers, carrier and freight invoices with accessorial charges plus customer orders arrive in every format and get reconciled by hand. DynamoDocs captures each document, AI reads and classifies it, suggests GL coding, validates it, and posts approved records into Acumatica through the Acumatica contract-based REST API, so hours go to moving freight instead of reconciling accessorials by hand. Acumatica is a fast-growing cloud ERP for distribution, manufacturing, and services businesses, sold in Australia and New Zealand as MYOB Acumatica.

A worked example
Acumatica for logistics and 3PL providers, from inbox to posted record
Imagine a 3PL provider running Acumatica that receives a carrier invoice carrying detention and lumper accessorials, it has to reconcile against the original rate quote. DynamoDocs picks it up from the monitored inbox (or a drag-and-drop upload), and AI reads every field and line, no template required. Each line gets a suggested GL account from your rules and coding history, then the document is validated against totals, required fields, and your own checks. Anything that fails is flagged field-by-field for a quick review; everything clean posts straight into Acumatica as an AP bill through the Acumatica contract-based REST API. Connects through the Default contract-based endpoint, with the endpoint version set per instance. Your logistics & 3pl team reviews the occasional exception instead of retyping the whole document, so hours go to moving freight instead of reconciling accessorials by hand.

Acumatica for Logistics & 3PL FAQ
How does DynamoDocs handle logistics & 3pl documents on Acumatica?
For logistics and 3PL providers, carrier and freight invoices with accessorial charges plus customer orders arrive in every format and get reconciled by hand. DynamoDocs captures each of those documents from a monitored mailbox or upload, reads every field with AI (no per-vendor template), suggests a GL account for each line, and posts it into Acumatica through the Acumatica contract-based REST API. Connects through the Default contract-based endpoint, with the endpoint version set per instance. Clean documents post automatically; only exceptions reach a person, so hours go to moving freight instead of reconciling accessorials by hand.
How does a carrier or freight invoice with accessorial line items post into Acumatica?
It becomes an AP bill in Acumatica, with header and line-item fields validated before anything posts. Posts AP Bills, sales orders (order type SO), and sales quotes (order type QT). A visual field-mapping engine shapes the record into exactly what Acumatica expects, so nothing is retyped and nothing posts half-filled.
Does it assign cost center and customer or load on Acumatica records?
DynamoDocs suggests a GL account for each line from your keyword rules and from how the same part or description was coded before, and a person confirms it. It does not assign cost center and customer or load. The Acumatica connector posts a fixed set of fields (party, dates, currency, and each line's account or item, quantity, and amount), so those codes are added in Acumatica after the record lands. Anything that fails a validation rule is flagged field-by-field for a quick fix before it posts.
How do purchase orders and RFQs from logistics and 3PL providers post into Acumatica?
Purchase orders become a sales order and RFQs become a sales quote in Acumatica, with every line, carrier and freight invoices included, read and validated first. Signs in to the company and branch you name, and maps vendors, customers, GL accounts, and inventory IDs to yours.
How much time and money does this save logistics and 3PL providers on Acumatica?
Keying one document into Acumatica typically takes 5–10 minutes and costs $2–$6 in labor, before the cost of fixing a mis-keyed line. DynamoDocs does it in seconds and only flags exceptions, so the labor left is the review time on those, while hours go to moving freight instead of reconciling accessorials by hand.
