Aptean Ship support for YRC allows you direct access to your YRC negotiated rates. You can generate a PRO#, tender the shipment, and request a pick-up. You can also print YRC-generated labels and BOLs.
YRC Contract
If you don’t already have a contract, you will need to go to my.yrc.com to register. This process can take 2-3 business days. Registered MyYellow.com users do not need to re-register for my.yrc. If you forgot your Username and Password, you can call 1-800-548-0435 to request the information.
Enable Account for Rate Quote API Access
You will need to complete and fax a Non-Disclosure Agreement form before implementing Rate Quote API. You can download that form here:
Rate Quote API Non-Disclosure Agreement
If you do not fax this completed form back to YRC, you will receive errors when attempting to rate shipments.
