Create or update load
Create a load, or replace an existing load matched by loadNumber.
The whole payload is validated on every request. Which fields are required depends on the load's status: stop appointment windows are optional while the load is a DRAFT and required on every route stop once the load reaches CUSTOMER_CONFIRMED or later. See Load Status Validation for the full status-by-status breakdown.
