In this article let's go through the Shipment Tracking dashboard together and have a better understanding of what insights you can get out of it.

 

To open the dashboard, follow the steps below.

This dashboard offers hourly updates on carrier status, split into different stages from shipment creation to delivery, to help you further discover the potential for lost or delayed packages and deep dive into specific shipments created over the past 30 days.

You can select the Start Date and End Date to filter the shipments based on their Created Date.

Now you can track the status of shipments created within the last 30 days.

Key numbers

Here you can find the total numbers (created over the last 30 days) of:

• TOTAL CREATED: # of labels that were printed.
• NOT SCANNED: % of labels that were printed but are not scanned by the carrier(s) yet.
• IN TRANSIT: % of shipments on their way for delivery, scanned but not yet delivered.
• DELIVERED: % of shipments delivered (e.g. @home, @neighbours, @ pickup point).
• MEDIAN DURATION: median duration from shipments scanned to delivered. 

Table – Not Scanned

This table contains details on shipments created but not yet scanned.

 

In the Nominated Date column, you can find the Nominated Date and how many days are left/delayed compared with the current date.

• Red: Nominated Date-Current Date<0 day. (The Nominated Delivery Date has passed)

 

You can use the color buttons in the bottom right corner to filter the Table.
