Logistics Data Studio.
The missing layer inside OTM. Built by the people who know it best.
The bespoke layer inside your Oracle OTM environment — accessed through the OTM menu, secured by Oracle Cloud, engineered by KSAP. Mass-load interlinked tables, build custom screens past OTM’s config ceiling, and map any source into OTM’s native schema. Use one capability or all four.
Your TMS was built to execute freight. Not to create the data that fuels it.
The same gaps appear in every OTM deployment — and the manual workarounds follow.
The interlinked data model
OTM rate loading alone touches seven linked tables. Master data spans locations, items, equipment, and corporations that all reference each other. Getting any single load right means getting them all right — in sequence, with referential integrity preserved.
The simplification ceiling
OTM’s screens can be configured — but only so far. A 12-field bid-cycle screen, a one-click bulk action for a yard flow, an entry form tuned to how your planners actually work. Past that ceiling, customers are stuck with native complexity.
Source-to-OTM translation
Carrier rate files, legacy system exports, ERP feeds, partner spreadsheets — every source has its own structure and quirks. OTM doesn’t transform any of it. That work falls to IT, middleware, or the person with the cleanup spreadsheet.
Validation too late
When bad data hits OTM, the cleanup is an IT project. Errors surface in production. Exception handling becomes a technical task. Business users who created the data can’t fix it without escalation.
Four capabilities. Mixed and matched to your operation.
Mass loading, custom screens, the data mapper, and pre-OTM validation. Use one, or blend them.
Mass loading across interlinked data models
One upload, every dependent OTM table. Studio resolves cross-table sequencing and referential integrity before commit — so a single rate contract or master-data build lands clean, in one pass.
- Multi-table loads — all 7 OTM rate tables (RATE_OFFERING, RATE_GEO, RATE_GEO_COST…) in one upload
- Referential integrity — cross-table dependencies resolved before commit
- Volume — hundreds to millions of records per session
- Excel & CSV in, OTM writes out — correctly sequenced, no scripts
Custom screens, engineered past OTM’s configuration ceiling
When your team needs a simpler entry experience than OTM’s native screens allow, KSAP engineers build it on the Studio platform — a 12-field bid screen, a one-click yard action, a planner form tuned to your workflow.
- Built to spec — describe the workflow, we deliver the screen
- Past the config ceiling — 12 fields where OTM native tops out at 40
- Stand-alone or blended — use screens only, spreadsheets only, or both
- Platform, not one-off code — configurable, supportable, upgrade-safe
The data mapper — any source, any format, into OTM
The engine underneath every Studio deployment. Carrier spreadsheets, legacy exports, partner APIs, custom-screen fields — the mapper transforms each one into OTM’s exact schema.
- Any source — Excel, CSV, JSON, XML, flat files, APIs
- Full transformations — lookups, unit/currency conversion, conditional logic, aggregation
- Native OTM schema — RATE_OFFERING, ORDER_RELEASE, SHIPMENT, master data
- Stand-alone or embedded — behind screens, or against spreadsheets
Validation before OTM — in plain language
Catches errors before data ever reaches production OTM. Business users fix exceptions inline — in plain language, without IT tickets or rollbacks.
- Pre-OTM checks — errors caught in Studio, not production
- Plain-language errors — “effective date missing for Lane 4423” — not stack traces
- Inline fixes — resolved in the same screen or spreadsheet
- Full audit trail — every validation, fix, and approval logged
One Studio. For the people who live in the data.
Built for the teams that wrangle freight data by hand every day — planners, procurement, accounting, and data ops. Four role configurations, one platform.
Logistics Data Studio — Planner
Plan faster. Execute cleaner. Handle complexity without spreadsheets.
Planning screens engineered for how your planners actually work — built by KSAP, mapped natively into OTM’s Order Release and Shipment schema. Create orders in volumes no standard OTM screen was built for, manage ship units across complex shipments, and capture tracking events from carriers without digital feeds. Exceptions surface and resolve inline.
Logistics Data Studio — Procurement
Compress bid cycles. Standardize contracts. Eliminate manual setup.
Rate-loading and contract-management screens built to match your bid process — engineered by KSAP, mapped directly into OTM’s Rate Offering, Rate Geo, and Service Provider schema. Every mode, every carrier, every region, every rate format. Bid cycles compressed from weeks to days. No Oracle consultant required to load a new lane.
Logistics Data Studio — Accounting
Reconcile faster. Reduce errors. Remove IT dependency.
Invoice and settlement screens engineered for your accounting team’s reconciliation flow — built by KSAP, mapped into OTM’s Freight Payment schema. Bulk ingestion of non-electronic freight invoices, validation and reconciliation before settlement, and exception handling resolved inline by accounting — not IT.
Logistics Data Studio — Data Ops
Control master data. Prevent errors. Own the lifecycle.
Master-data screens engineered for how your data teams govern the foundation of every shipment. Every client-defined field mapped into OTM’s master-data schema by KSAP. Validation catches errors before they propagate. Data teams own the lifecycle without developer cycles.
Manual invoice creation, handled inside Studio.
Watch how accounting and procurement teams capture non-electronic freight invoices directly in Logistics Data Studio — validated and reconciled before they hit OTM’s settlement engine.
You describe the need. We engineer it into OTM.
Every deployment is bespoke — built on 25 years of Oracle Transportation Management expertise.
Describe the need
Walk us through the workflow and the data. What screen your team needs, what sources arrive, what transformations are required, what a clean outcome looks like.
Configure the capabilities
Our engineers configure whichever capabilities your operation actually needs — mass-load only, screens only, mapper only, or any combination. Every field coded to OTM schema by OTM experts.
Map to Oracle schema
Every transformed field is mapped and coded directly into OTM’s native schema — Rate Offerings, Order Releases, Shipment Events, Master Data. No middleware. No data sync gap.
Deployed, seamlessly
Studio goes live, integrated into OTM as if Oracle built it. Your team uses only the capabilities they actually need. Validation catches errors before they reach production.
Built inside OTM — not beside it.
Accessed through the OTM menu. Secured by Oracle Cloud.
Logistics Data Studio isn’t a separate application bolted onto OTM through middleware. It’s integrated directly into the OTM menu structure and inherits Oracle Cloud user security. Your team signs into OTM, opens Studio from the same menu, and operates with the same permissions their OTM role already grants. One platform. One security model. No parallel login, no data sync gap, no vendor-lock.
Logistics Data Studio isn’t another tool.
It’s the layer that makes your TMS work the way your business actually runs.
