- **Type:** Task
- **Module:** Logistics
- **Menu path:** Lojistik Yönetimi › Ana Veriler › Taşıyıcılar (Logistics Management › Master Data › Carriers)
- **Screen route:** `/erp/logistics/carriers`
- **Required permission:** `erp-logistics-carriers.create`
- **Prerequisites:**
  - The company has been created as an **active supplier** card in Business Partners.
  - No carrier profile has been added to the card yet (a card can have only one profile).

A carrier is not a separate card but the logistics profile of a supplier card: freight is purchased, and the carrier's
invoice arrives as a supplier invoice.

## Steps

1. Open the **Lojistik Yönetimi › Ana Veriler › Taşıyıcılar** (Logistics Management › Master Data › Carriers) screen.
   <!-- action: navigate · target: "/erp/logistics/carriers" -->

   ![Carriers list](https://erpdocs.corexlogic.com/en/en/img/screens/lojistik/tasiyicilar.png)
   1. Carrier profile for a supplier card
   2. Authorization certificate and expiry
   3. Priority in carrier selection
   4. Carrier's vehicle and driver count

2. Click **Taşıyıcı Ekle** (Add Carrier).
   <!-- action: click · target: "Taşıyıcı Ekle" · expect: "The Yeni Taşıyıcı (New Carrier) window opens" -->
3. Click the magnifier of the **Tedarikçi Kartı** (Supplier Card) field, then find and select the card in the **Tedarikçi Seç** (Select Supplier) window. A card that is already a carrier appears with the warning "Zaten taşıyıcı olarak kayıtlı" (Already registered as a carrier).
   <!-- action: choose · target: "Tedarikçi Kartı" · value: "T-0018 — Hızlı Hat Nakliyat ve Lojistik Ltd. Şti." -->
4. Enter the **Yetki Belgesi** (Operating License) type (e.g. K1) and number, and the **Geçerlilik Bitişi** (Valid Until) date.
   <!-- action: fill · target: "Yetki Belgesi" · value: "K1 · DEMO-K1-0018 · 30.06.2027" -->
5. Enter the **Öncelik** (Priority) for its rank in carrier selection (1 is the highest priority, empty = last in the ranking).
   <!-- action: fill · target: "Öncelik" · value: "1" -->
6. Leave **Aktif** (Active) selected; enter a **Not** (Note) if necessary, and click **Oluştur** (Create).
   <!-- action: click · target: "Oluştur" · expect: "The carrier appears in the list as Aktif (Active)" -->

   ![New Carrier dialog](https://erpdocs.corexlogic.com/en/en/img/screens/lojistik/tasiyici-ekle.png)
   1. Supplier card — required
   2. Authorization type and number
   3. Priority — 1 is highest
   4. Create

**Result:** The supplier card becomes a carrier: it can be selected as the **Taşıyıcı** (Carrier) on a shipment, linked to vehicle and driver cards, and a [freight agreement](https://erpdocs.corexlogic.com/en/lojistik/islemler/navlun-anlasmasi-olusturma) can be created for it.

## What you need to know

- After the profile is created, the linked supplier card cannot be changed; the company name and tax ID are refreshed
  from the card.
- The operating license type has up to 8 letters/digits (e.g. K1, L2, R1); the priority is an integer between 1 and
  99.
- A carrier cannot be deleted; if it will no longer be used, clear the **Aktif** (Active) check box with **İşlemler ›
  Düzenle** (Actions › Edit). An inactive carrier cannot be selected on a shipment.
- Tender e-mails go to the e-mail address of the contact on the supplier card.
