- Toggle Use Factoring Company to Yes.
- In the Factoring Company field, search for and select the entity created in Step 1.

Step 3: Tariff Wizard
In this step, you will be creating a tariff integration to establish credentials, lanes, and integration source parameters.
- Go to Rates > Tariff Wizard
- Select the target Carrier
- Complete the setup parameters based on your API source documentation
- Enter the company address you created in Step 1 into the Bill To Address field
Special Note for Coyote Logistics: you'll need to create two separate tariff links — one for LTL and one for TL (Truckload).
Step 4: Tariff Lanes & Routing Rules
In this step, you will be confirming that rating logic triggers correctly across all active lanes.
- Open the newly configured tariff and go to the Tariff Lanes tab
- If no lanes are present, manually generate the required lanes for this carrier
- Confirm the SCAC matches the SCAC you assigned in Step 2
- Set the Service Type for each Tariff Lane to All to prevent rating failures
Step 5: Final Validation
In this step, you will be confirming the setup is complete and ready for live order processing.
- Run a quick rate test in Tai to confirm live rates return successfully
- Save all active tariff configurations
Once these checks pass, the setup is complete and ready for live order processing.
