Customer portal DACHSER platform
The DACHSER platform brings together key digital logistics services in a modern user interface. As the successor product, the DACHSER platform builds on the proven functions of eLogistics, develops them further and will gradually replace eLogistics. You gain a consistent view of your logistics processes and can centrally manage price enquiries, bookings, shipment tracking, documents and invoices. The DACHSER platform is being developed into the central access point for DACHSER’s digital logistics services.
Customer portal eLogistics
eLogistics supports the operational management of logistics processes. This includes digital shipment tracking, access to documents and the management of relevant information. The current status of shipments is presented clearly and transparently. This creates visibility across the supply chain without information from different sources having to be compiled manually. eLogistics is gradually being replaced by its successor product, the DACHSER platform.

Key questions about digital logistics solutions
What does DACHSER mean by information logistics?
Information logistics refers to the intelligent connection of information with physical logistics processes. Relevant data is made available throughout the supply chain wherever it is needed for planning, management and decision-making. This includes shipment status information, documents and process data from transport and warehousing. Connecting flows of goods and information creates visibility, predictability and a reliable data basis.
What are the benefits of digital logistics solutions?
Digital logistics solutions provide visibility of shipments, movements of goods and processes. Information can be used promptly for operational decisions, allowing deviations to be identified earlier. At the same time, recurring processes can be automated, manual steps reduced and data quality improved. This makes collaboration between customers, partners and logistics providers easier.
What role does logistics data play?
Logistics data provides information about shipments, inventories, transport processes, documents and status updates. Its availability and quality help determine how effectively processes can be analysed, managed and automated. As a reliable data basis, it supports visibility, predictability and data-driven decisions, and provides the foundation for platforms, analyses and automated data exchange processes.
What is the difference between API and EDI?
EDI is based on standardised message formats and is frequently used for the automated exchange of structured business documents such as transport orders, status updates or invoice data. APIs enable more flexible, direct communication between applications and can provide specific information in near real time. The choice depends on technical requirements, existing systems and integration objectives.
How does DACHSER support the digitalisation of logistics processes?
DACHSER connects digital technologies with operational logistics processes. The DACHSER platform, eLogistics, API and EDI connections, and secure IT systems support the capture, processing and use of logistics information. The aim is an end-to-end flow of information across system boundaries that improves visibility, efficiency and planning certainty throughout the supply chain.
Why is data so important for modern supply chains?
Modern supply chains continuously generate large volumes of information. Only by capturing and using this information in a structured way can processes be made transparent and a reliable basis for decision-making be established. Data helps companies monitor supply chains, identify deviations at an early stage, deploy resources effectively and improve collaboration between everyone involved.
