How To Use Shipment Status and Document Notification

This tool sends an e-mail update based on your selected notification and/or document request options to four or fewer e-mail addresses. We send status messages four times a day after 8 a.m., noon, 4 p.m. and 8 p.m.
Note: The process for sending the notifications begins at the specified times above, but you may receive your requested notifications any time in the four-hour period.

Set up E-Tracking:

  1. Enter 50 or fewer PRO numbers.
  2. Select a status notification option and or document type.
  3. Choose whether you want documents to arrive as links in emails, PDF email attachments or both.
  4. Enter the e-mail address(es).
  5. Choose your delivery options:
    • Receive notifications and documents as soon as they become available in our system.
      Note: This option could generate many emails.
    • Bundle notifications and documents to receive periodically (after 8 a.m., noon, 4 p.m. and 8 p.m.).
      Note: If you choose the bundled option, you must further select how you want to have your documents sent (options pertain only to documents):
      • One document per email. This option generates an email on the above schedule that will contain your notification and one document.
        Note: This option could generate many emails.
      • One PRO per email; include all available documents. This option generates an email on the above schedule that will contain your notification and all documents for a single PRO that are available in our system at the time the email is sent.
      • One PRO per email; hold until all requested document types are available. This option generates an email on the above schedule that will contain your notification and a complete set of your requested documents for a single PRO after they are all available in our system.
        Note: Weight and Inspection certificates are not included in hold requests, so you may receive those separately after you've received a set of documents for a PRO.
      • All available documents for all PROs in one email. This option generates an email on the above schedule that will contain your notifications and all documents available for all PROs.
        Note: If the email file size becomes too large because of the number of attachments, you may receive more than one email.
  6. Click Submit; you will receive a confirmation page, and your request will be stored in our database.
