ARK TMS × Truckstop
ARK TMS connects freight brokers to Truckstop load posting and RMIS carrier onboarding in one operating workflow. Post and manage Truckstop loads, review synced RMIS carrier compliance, then dispatch covered freight, track shipments, invoice customers, and sync supported accounting records to QuickBooks Online from ARK.
Connected workflow
Truckstop and RMIS handle different decisions while ARK keeps the load and carrier workflow connected.
Publish an Available load to Truckstop with supported lane, equipment, note, and organization-enabled posting fields.
Invite a carrier to RMIS or sync an existing record, then review provider-supplied certification and compliance evidence in ARK.
Assign the selected carrier and move the covered load into ARK dispatch operations.
Manage shipment visibility with ARK Tracking or another configured tracking connection.
Complete billing in ARK and sync supported accounting records when QuickBooks Online is configured.
Live connections
Truckstop manages load-board distribution. RMIS supplies carrier onboarding and monitoring data.
| Capability | Truckstop load posting | RMIS |
|---|---|---|
| Primary job | Publish and manage Available loads | Onboard and monitor carriers |
| Create | Post a load from ARK | Invite a carrier or sync an existing RMIS record |
| Ongoing actions | Update, manually refresh, and remove a posting | Manual carrier sync and automatic background Delta sync |
| Data in ARK | Lane, equipment, rate when enabled, notes, visibility, and posting status | Certification, safety, authority, insurance, agreements, W-9, contacts, and documents when supplied |
| Operational status | Posting, posted, refreshing, updating, removal requested, removed, and failures | Certification, sync recency, compliance findings, and provider evidence |
| Access required | Organization connection plus OAuth for every posting user | RMIS Client ID, API password, and administrator enablement |
Connection 01 · Truckstop
Create a Truckstop posting from an Available load, then return to the same ARK load to update, manually refresh, or remove it. Posting status and separate expiration context keep the provider lifecycle visible to operations.
Public posting is the default. Private-posting and posted-rate controls appear only when enabled for the organization. If a posted load leaves Available status, ARK queues provider removal and shows the removal state while it completes.
Connection 02 · RMIS
Preview an RMIS invitation by DOT or MC/MX, or manually sync an existing carrier by RMIS ID, DOT, or MC/MX number. ARK stores the provider record with carrier certification, compliance, insurance, safety, authority, contact, agreement, W-9, and document details when RMIS supplies them.
Manual sync supports an immediate review. Enabling RMIS onboarding also enables automatic Delta sync for monitored carrier updates. ARK can retrieve supported files when RMIS supplies valid references and document retrieval is enabled for the organization.
After coverage
After carrier selection, ARK supports dispatch and invoicing on the same load record. Shipment tracking requires ARK Tracking or another configured tracking connection. QuickBooks Online sync requires a configured QuickBooks integration and applies to supported accounting records.

The provider lifecycle is now visible from the ARK load.
Example data illustrates the workflow. No provider action is sent.
Requirements
Provider accounts and credentials are required; ARK does not replace those agreements.
An administrator configures and activates the organization-level Truckstop connection.
Each person who posts must connect their own Truckstop account with user OAuth.
An administrator saves the RMIS Client ID and API password, then enables RMIS onboarding.
Review the organization’s private-posting and rate-field access before testing.
Verify a normal posting lifecycle and a known RMIS carrier before broad team use.
