Managing Tracking Exceptions

We recognize that exceptions can occur during shipment tracking. This article will guide you in checking the exception messages you may encounter on Cargobase.

Identifying a tracking exception on the Tracking Page

Exception labels

An exception label or a subtag will be available on the tracking milestone if a tracking exception is present. 

The exception label should look like below. If an exception message is available, hover to the Screenshot 2025-04-11 at 3.00.35 PM icon next to the exception label for more information. 

If a new estimated time of arrival (ETA) is provided, you will see both the original and the revised ETA displayed, along with the reason for the delay.

A warning icon will be displayed next to the shipment status in Overview in Tracking page.
