Feature |
Issue |
Mitigation |
---|---|---|
Carrier List |
Network Directory shows the same carrier and connection information, duplicated. |
Evaluating fix but for now you must de-duplicate in MS Excel. |
Updates to carrier lists are not real-time and don’t include NMC invites. |
Carrier list must be uploaded by your project44 rep and can take up to 30 hours to update. |
|
Carrier name might be different than what’s displayed in the NMC. |
The carrier’s name can be changed. Reach out to carrierservices@project44.com if the carrier name should be adjusted. |
|
Connection Information |
Carriers from a different region do not show their connection information. |
Must view EU carriers in the customers' EU Network Directory and vice versa for NA carriers. |
Different statuses between the multiple places we reference connection information (RCA, ND, CAT). |
Please inform support@project44.com if you experience this. |
|
Invited a carrier today but it did not update the tracking information. |
Can take up to 30 hours to update connection information. Check the updated date. |
|
Network Directory shows a carrier, but the NMC does not show a carrier in the carrier list to invite them. |
Carrier is private in the NMC, and the setting is at the carrier’s desire. This setting cannot be changed in the NMC. |
|
Assets show as unavailable in the NMC though the carrier has an ELD configured and was successfully invited. |
We don't show asset statuses on Network Directory and Asset statuses in the NMC are not always accurate. |
|
Discrepancy between the NMC invite status and the actual invite status in Network Directory. |
Check NMC for source of truth if need to double check. |
