How to Monitor Shipment and Package Tracking
Why Automate Shipment Tracking
Manually checking tracking pages for multiple shipments is time-consuming and unreliable. Automated monitoring ensures you're immediately aware of delays, customs holds, and delivery confirmations — especially important for business-critical shipments.
Key Events to Track
Monitor for status changes like 'in transit', 'out for delivery', 'delivered', and critically — 'exception' or 'delay'. Early awareness of shipping exceptions gives you time to arrange alternatives or proactively notify your customers.
Setting Up Alerts
Add your tracking numbers and AlertPulse will monitor the carrier's tracking page for status changes. You'll get notified when the shipment status updates, with details about the new status and location.
Business Applications
E-commerce businesses can use shipment monitoring to proactively update customers about delivery status. Supply chain managers can track inbound shipments and adjust production schedules when delays are detected.
