Automate Power Traffic with a workflow

A workflow runs your methods as one process, with nobody at the screen. A schedule or a call from your own system starts it, the steps run in order, and the result arrives in your inbox or in the systems you already use.

  • New web bids, before they expire

    Build this
    Starts
    Every 30 minutes on weekdays
    Step 1
    Get the loads for bid from the Loads for Bid list in Web Tendering.
    Step 2
    Keep the bids that were not there on the last run.
    Step 3
    Email you each new bid with its expiration, client, origin, destination, distance and weight.

  • Available loads, posted to your dispatch system

    Build this
    Starts
    Every weekday at 6:00
    Step 1
    Get the loads in the Available view of the Load list in Web Tendering.
    Step 2
    Keep the loads that were not there on the last run.
    Step 3
    Post each one, with its load details and comments, to your dispatch webhook.

  • Open appointment times for a planned delivery

    Build this
    Starts
    When your system calls the workflow's webhook with a delivery company and PO numbers
    Step 1
    Find the open appointment times for those POs on Request an Appointment, without reserving one.
    Step 2
    When an order is rejected, post its PO number and rejection reason to your webhook and stop.
    Step 3
    Post the order statuses and available dates and times back to your webhook.

You can run a workflow by hand on every plan, Free included. Schedules and webhook triggers come with the paid plans, from $29 a month.

Once built, one call from your code

Once you have built a method, it is one POST to /v1/runs from your backend, or a tool an AI agent calls over MCP. This is what “Get loads for bid” would look like.

Example request
curl https://api.fous.com/v1/runs \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $FOUS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "method": "ncrpowertraffic.com/get_loads_for_bid",
    "input": {}
  }'
Example response
{
  "status": "completed",
  "data": {
    "bids": [
      {
        "bid_id": "88214",
        "expires_at": "2026-11-12T15:00:00-06:00",
        "client": "Northwind Foods",
        "distance_miles": 412,
        "stops": 2,
        "cube": 2350,
        "weight_lb": 38600,
        "origin": "Joliet, IL",
        "destination": "Indianapolis, IN"
      }
    ],
    "count": 1
  }
}

An example with invented data, not a ready-made endpoint. The method exists in your organization once you build it, and its name, inputs and fields follow your request.

Power Traffic’s own options

NCR's instructions for carriers and vendors describe the site itself and document no API, EDI or file export for carriers. Web Scheduling books appointments or sends appointment requests, and Web Tendering shows load tenders, web bids and, where the client allows it, freight invoices. Appointment details and confirmation numbers also arrive by email.

OptionWhat it coversWhat it takes
Appointment emailsAn email with all the appointment details and a confirmation number after each appointment is accepted.A Power Traffic account approved for web scheduling by the customer, and NoReply@ncr.com on your safe senders list.
Web bid emailsAn email notification when a client sends you a web bid. The bid itself is read and answered on the site.A client that sends web bids to selected carriers, including you.

Signing in to Power Traffic

Power Traffic signs you in with your Email/Username and a case-sensitive password of 8 to 20 characters. A forgotten password is reset by email, and a forgotten username comes from your customer or vendor. With Fous you sign in once through the site's own sign-in with your own account: the login is sealed with AES-256, and an expired session is signed back in.

Worth knowing

Each customer approves you first
You request web scheduling from each customer under Add scheduling for a company, then wait for it to approve. Without approval in 24 to 48 hours, NCR's guide says to contact the customer's scheduling department.
Some orders cannot be scheduled on the web
An order is rejected when its number is not found, has several unscheduled instances, belongs to another delivery customer or is already scheduled. Then you call the delivery company.
A live appointment or a request
Make a live appointment now can be used only when it is not grayed out. Otherwise you submit a request with a date and a window (Anytime, Before Noon, Noon -6PM, after 6PM), and the Dock Scheduling user tells you the time.
Web Invoicing needs the client's approval
Freight invoices can be sent from an accepted load only if your client approved you for web invoicing. You can send one before delivery, but the client cannot process it until the load is delivered and received.

Frequently asked questions

Not one for carriers and vendors that NCR documents. Its instructions cover the site itself: Web Scheduling for appointments and requests, and Web Tendering for loads, bids and invoices, plus emails with appointment confirmations and web bid notices. With Fous you can build your own methods on your account.

Web scheduling rejects an order when the number is not found, has several unscheduled instances, does not match the delivery customer you chose or is already scheduled. In those cases NCR's guide says to call the delivery company to make the appointment.

In the Appointment Summary after you reserve, and in the email Power Traffic sends with all the appointment details. For a request for review, the Dock Scheduling user tells you the date and time once the appointment is made.

Power Traffic emails you when a client sends you a web bid. With Fous, a workflow can read Loads for Bid on a schedule, keep the bids that are new since the last run and email you each one with its expiration, origin, destination and weight.

No. Fous is an independent product. You use it with your own Power Traffic account, and a method reads and does only what that account can.
