Toyota Shipping Confirmation System TSCS
Streamline Compliance with the Toyota Shipping Confirmation System
The Toyota Shipping Confirmation System (TSCS) is a critical compliance mandate for Toyota suppliers, designed to enhance packaging and shipping efficiency in the supply chain. TSCS verifies skid or pallet information in real time and validates shipment contents—including destination, driver name, trailer number, and SCAC—before the truck leaves the dock. By implementing TSCS, suppliers can reduce labor hours, minimize human errors, and improve the speed and reliability of their shipping operations.
How Does the Toyota Shipping Confirmation System Work?
AIM Computer Solutions simplifies TSCS compliance with two manufacturing productivity apps:
- AIM Mobility – Toyota Skid Build App
- AIM Mobility – Toyota Freight Load App
These Android-based apps leverage Toyota’s shipping confirmation API platform to automate scanning, validation, and confirmation processes.
A Step-By-Step Overview
1. Build Skid Manifests with the Toyota Skid Build App
The AIM Mobility – Toyota Skid Build App captures Kanban box labels and links them to the skid manifest. Once the skid is confirmed by the Toyota Shipping Confirmation System, it becomes available for processing in the Freight Load App.
- Kanban and Skid Labels: Suppliers generate these labels through the Toyota Supplier Portal.
- Handle Exceptions: The app allows suppliers to input pallet build exceptions such as:
- Revised Quantities (e.g., Toyota quantity reduction or supplier short shipment)
- Non-Standard Packaging
2. Verify Shipments with the Toyota Freight Load App
When the carrier arrives at the dock, the Freight Load App enables users to:
- Scan the trailer number, seal number, and other key shipment details.
- Validate each unique skid label and confirm shipment data in real time through TSCS.
- Receive a confirmation number displayed directly in the app, which is provided to the driver before departure.
3. Complete the Shipping Process
After verification, suppliers finalize the shipper update and send the Advanced Shipping Notice (ASN), completing the shipping process with Toyota’s compliance standards.
