Click on the button, Add tracking number .

Select the type of reference depending on the service provided, such as Container Number, MAWB Number, Truck Number, or any Other tracking Number, and Save the information:

Once the tracking references are updated, the Shipper will also receive these updates as messages on the communication window on the right side of the screen.

  • You can add more than one tracking reference when necessary, just select Add tracking number to do so.

  • Click on the Edit button if the reference number need to be updated.

How to identify a duplicate reference added to the same shipment?

A validation check is in place to detect any duplicated container number, MAWB number, or tracking number that has been previously entered. If a duplicate is found, the following error message will be displayed:

  • Container number - “Container number already added.”

  • MAWB number - “MAWB number already added.”

  • Tracking number/Other tracking - “Tracking number already added.”

You will see that the ¨Save¨button will be grayed out when an error is displayed.

Shippers with tracking subscriptions such as Container/ MAWB trackings, tracking events are displayed automatically once a tracking reference is provided. Contact Cargobase Support for more information about paid tracking subscriptions.

For Providers with a direct integration with Cargobase, the tracking events are displayed automatically once a tracking reference is provided. Contact Cargobase Support for more information about integration.
