Control the PO. Lock the landed cost.
Validate supplier and order data the moment a PO is created, then apply your contract rates, duties, and compliance automatically. Freightgate confirms true landed cost before the goods ship — so the invoice holds no surprises.
The PO is dirty, and landed cost is a surprise.
Supplier records, part data, and terms arrive incomplete and inconsistent. Rates and duties get added later, by hand, in another system. By the time the invoice lands, the true cost of the order is already settled — and it rarely matches what anyone expected.
Validate the PO, price it at creation.
Freightgate checks supplier and order data the moment the PO is created, then applies your contract rates, duties, and compliance as policy. Landed cost is calculated and confirmed up front — so the order ships against a number you already agreed to.
From PO to release, in four steps.
The same logic runs on every order, automatically, so landed cost is confirmed before the goods move — not reconstructed at audit.
Validate PO
Supplier records, part data, and order terms are checked the moment the PO is created, so it starts clean.
Apply rates & rules
Contract rates, duties, surcharges, and compliance rules apply to the order automatically as policy.
Confirm landed cost
Freight, duties, and accessorials roll into one landed-cost figure, confirmed before the goods ship.
Release to execution
The validated, priced PO is released to booking and visibility, carrying its landed cost downstream.
What PO management automates.
PO & supplier validation
Supplier records, part data, and order terms are checked at creation, so the PO is clean before a single rate is applied.
Contract rates at the PO
Negotiated ocean, air, land, and rail rates apply to the order automatically, so the PO is priced against your contracts, not guesswork.
True landed cost
Freight, duties, and accessorials roll into one landed-cost figure at creation, so the cost of the order is known before it ships.
Compliance check
Denied-party screening runs in the workflow, so a flagged party is caught at the PO — not after the order is on the water.
Supplier collaboration
Suppliers confirm, update, and acknowledge orders against the same record, so the PO stays clean as it moves between parties.
Milestone tracking
Each order step is tracked against its plan, so a missed milestone is flagged by exception rather than found after the fact.
See the PO validated, before it's released.
Freightgate runs each line through validation, contract rates, duties, and denied-party screening, then rolls it into one landed-cost number — confirmed before the order ships, so nothing changes at invoice time.
How automated rate decisions price the POThe same order, run two ways.
- Supplier and part data arrive incomplete and inconsistent.
- Rates and duties get added later, by hand, in another system.
- True landed cost only appears when the invoice lands.
- A flagged party is caught after the order is on the water.
- Supplier and order data validated the moment the PO is created.
- Contract rates and duties applied to the order automatically.
- True landed cost confirmed before the goods ship.
- Denied-party screening runs at the PO, not after departure.
Built for the scale global supply chains run at.
Supplier and order data are checked the moment the PO is created, before anything ships.
Rates, duties, and accessorials roll into one figure, locked before the goods move.
The same PO logic applies no matter how the order is sourced or how the freight moves.
Integrates, it doesn't replace.
Freightgate sits above the ERP, TMS, and carriers you already run and governs your POs across them. Two decades of integrations mean most of your suppliers and carriers are already live on day one.
Live in weeks, not quarters.
Bring the PO and supplier formats you already keep, or connect by EDI and API. Suppliers and carriers pay nothing to serve you, and delivery is collaborative from kickoff to go-live.

What buyers ask first.
What gets validated when a PO is created?
Supplier records, part data, and order terms are checked the moment the PO is created, so the order starts clean. Rates, duties, and compliance are then applied as policy before anything ships.
How is true landed cost calculated at the PO?
Contract freight rates, duties, and accessorials roll into a single landed-cost figure at creation, so the cost of the order is confirmed up front rather than reconstructed when the invoice arrives.
Does it replace our ERP or TMS?
No. Freightgate sits above the systems you already run and governs your POs across them. It integrates through EDI, API, and web services; it does not rip and replace.
How does compliance screening fit into the PO?
Denied-party screening runs inside the PO workflow, so a flagged party is caught at creation — not after the order is on the water.
How does the PO connect to rates and invoice audit?
The PO carries its applied rate and landed cost into Rate Management and Audit & Payment, where every invoice is matched to the PO before it is paid.
