Introduction
Track and Trace allows your customers to track shipments and get detailed information about them, regardless of carrier. You do not need the carriers’ shipment and parcel numbers since you use your own order number or reference as search parameters.
After a shipment is created, that is, is assigned a shipment and/or parcel number, it is immediately trackable through the Track and Trace page.
Track and Trace works best for carriers and transport services that offer status and event reporting. Status availability may therefore vary.
Branded Track and Trace allows you to add your company's logo or other images to your tracking page, and also add links from these images.
Activate Track and Trace
- Go to Maintenance > My Account.
- Click Integrity settings. Read the disclaimer before activating the service.
- Check the Active check box.
You can activate or deactivate the service at any time.
