The public tracking page

Recipients don't need an account. They type a waybill number and see where their goods are.

What they see

One box: Enter waybill number. Submitting shows that consignment's tracking timeline — the same chain of events you see beside the waybill details.

The page is titled "<Your company> Delivery Tracking — Powered by Alpha Cargo", carrying your organization's name and logo.

Three ways to open it

RouteNotes
The general addressThe default tracking page
With your organization's slugShows your name and logo
Your own domainFully your brand — see below

The address takes a waybill number as a parameter, so a link opens straight onto the result without anyone typing anything. That's the easiest thing to put in a customer notification.

Using your own domain

Custom Domain Settings lets the tracking page run on a domain of yours, keeping your branding consistent.

  1. Enter the domain you want to use.
  2. Add the records it shows you at your DNS provider — each value has a copy button.
  3. Come back and verify; success reports "Domain verified successfully!"

The same page configures the tracking page's title and description.

Quoting and ordering

Quoting, ordering and taking payment from customers happens through the API — there is no customer-facing ordering screen in the TMS back office. To connect that flow, see the quoting and ordering chapters in the Developer Guide.
