Shipment tracking
You can track shipments in real time and locate exactly where they are after pickup.
With shipment tracking, you can track 2 things:
- Customer shipment (CS): The full end-to-end shipment customers see.
- Transport shipment (TS): Each transport leg a logistics service provider (LSP) handles.
Shipment states
Both CS and TS pages show 1 of 4 states:
- Not started:
- We haven't received a qualifying progress event yet.
- Started:
- The shipment's in progress, typically after pickup. It can also turn to start after events like departed, en route, or arrived (when a separate proof of delivery is used).
- Delivered:
- The shipment arrived and completed. We register delivery by actual arrival or proof of delivery, depending on the carrier's update.
- Delayed:
- Before ETA: The carrier sent a delay status for the last leg
- After ETA: The shipment hasn't been delivered after its ETA
How we determine CS status
The CS aggregates progress primarily from the first and last legs:
- Moves toStartedafter the first leg picks up or progresses (for example, departed, en route, arrived)
- Moves toDeliveredwhen the last leg delivers (based on arrival or proof of delivery updates, depending on how the carrier reports)
- BecomesDelayedif the carrier reports a delay for the last leg before ETA, or if the CS still hasn't delivered after the ETA passes
