How does freight invoice auditing work?

Carrier invoices are uploaded or received via EDI. The system compares each line item against the contracted rate card. Discrepancies above a threshold are flagged for dispute before payment.

How does the customer visibility portal work?

Customers get a self-service portal where they search their orders or enter a tracking number to see the current shipment status, location, and estimated delivery date using real-time carrier tracking data.

How are exceptions managed?

The system monitors all active shipments. When a carrier event indicates a delay, damage, or exception, an alert is created and assigned to the operations team. A claim workflow is triggered for damage events.

The Challenge

Why building a Logistics from scratch is hard

Building a Logistics Management Platform from scratch requires months of development time and significant engineering resources. Teams struggle to coordinate frontend, backend, database, and authentication while managing logistics-specific business logic, integrations, and role-based access rules.

What's Included

Everything your Logistics needs

ProjectCode generates a production-ready Logistics with all the modules your team needs from day one.

Shipment creation with multi-carrier rate comparison

Real-time shipment tracking with milestone events

Carrier contract management and rate card upload

Freight invoice audit against carrier rate cards

Customs documentation generation (commercial invoice, packing list)

Customer-facing shipment visibility portal

Exception management: delays, damages, claims

Analytics: on-time delivery, cost per unit shipped, carrier performance

Architecture

How it's built

The generated Logistics follows production-grade architecture patterns.

React 18 + TypeScript frontend with role-based dashboards tailored for logistics workflows

NestJS REST API with dedicated logistics modules, DTOs, validators, and service layer

PostgreSQL relational schema with normalized tables for all logistics entities

JWT + Google OAuth authentication with granular permission gates per role

Real-time Socket.IO events for live logistics status updates and notifications

Managed hosting with one-click deploy, custom domain, and auto-SSL

Database

PostgreSQL schema designed for Logistics

ProjectCode generates a normalized, indexed PostgreSQL schema with the right tables and relationships for your use case. You own the schema and can evolve it freely.

shipments (id, shipper_id, origin, destination, service, weight, dimensions jsonb, carrier_id, tracking_number, status, cost, created_at)
tracking_events (id, shipment_id, carrier_event_code, description, location, timestamp, is_exception)
carriers (id, name, code, api_type, credentials jsonb, service_levels jsonb, is_active)
freight_invoices (id, carrier_id, invoice_number, period, line_items jsonb, total, audited_total, variance, status, received_at)

FAQ

Common questions about building a Logistics

On shipment creation, the platform queries each configured carrier's rate API with the shipment parameters (origin, destination, weight, service level). Results are displayed side by side ranked by cost or transit time.
