The TMS for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
Owlery is a transportation management system (TMS) that connects to Business Central in both directions. It pulls in your open orders, builds optimized loads and books the right carrier, then writes the results back, so nobody re-keys anything.
Owlery does the freight work. Business Central stays current.
From the moment an order exists to the moment the carrier is paid, Owlery plans, books and checks the freight, and keeps Business Central up to date at every step.
Every update to Business Central is optional, can be previewed, and is logged. You choose which ones run and which fields they land in, including your own custom fields. See this run on your own orders
Built for multi-company Business Central accounts
Run more than one company, or more than one environment? Owlery connects to all of them and keeps freight accounting where it belongs.
Sync a sales order from the company that sold it and create the freight PO in the company that pays the carrier. No intercompany re-keying.
Connect separate Business Central environments, such as one per region or country, and plan freight across all of them from Owlery.
Give each company its own organization in Owlery and share carrier contracts, rates and settings across the group. You configure how it’s set up, and Owlery runs it that way.

Carriers book their own appointments around the clock, so your docks run to plan.
Ask questions in plain language and get carrier, cost and lane reports in seconds.

Parcel, LTL, FTL and international. Owlery plans and books every mode on your Business Central orders from one place, with your contracted and market rates side by side, so each shipment goes out on the right service.
Yes. Owlery generates every document a shipment needs, including parcel labels, BOLs, packing slips, commercial invoices and other customs paperwork, built automatically from the order data in Business Central. Use our standard formats or your own custom templates.
Yes. Owlery has hundreds of prebuilt integrations with other WMS, AP systems, visibility platforms, and carriers, plus an open API and an MCP server, so you can connect anything else your team runs, including AI agents.
Only what it needs to plan and manage your freight. You stay in control of what Owlery updates in Business Central, and you can turn access off at any time. Every update can be previewed and is logged on the order, so you can always see what changed and when.
No. Freight POs are for teams that pay carriers through Business Central. Every update is optional, so you can keep order status, carrier and dates current without them.
Owlery checks every carrier invoice against the agreed rate and accessorials before you pay. In Business Central, the freight PO carries the cost split across the orders on the load, and it's only released for payment once the invoice checks out, so your margins reflect what shipping really cost.
Near real time. Owlery syncs updated orders in the background on a cadence you choose, typically every 15 to 30 minutes, and refreshes an order the moment you open it, so you're always working with the latest version.
Yes. Sandbox and production companies are kept separate, so test orders never overwrite live ones.
Everything relevant to your freight: sales, purchase and transfer orders, plus the items, locations, customers and vendors on them. Owlery also keeps the dimensions and weights it needs for load building, so your loads are right from the start.
