Why Is My Shipment Not Tracking? Troubleshooting Guide
Introduction
At project44, we understand how important real-time shipment tracking is for efficient supply chain management. This guide is designed to help you troubleshoot why your shipment may not be tracking as expected and provide actionable steps to resolve common issues.
Issue description
Sometimes shipments do not show tracking information due to incomplete registration processes or integration issues. This can happen if GPS integration hasn't been properly configured, or if no shipment has been assigned to a vehicle in our system.
Signs your shipment is not tracking
- No tracking updates or location data available for your shipment.
- Shipment status remains in an initial or pending state without progress.
- Vehicles associated with your shipments appear inactive or unassigned in the dashboard.
Basic troubleshooting steps
- Verify that your GPS provider has provided the necessary API credentials for integration.
- Ensure your GPS devices are properly connected to your project44 account.
- Check that shipments have been assigned to vehicles or assets in the system.
Advanced troubleshooting for Motive connections
For customers using Motive connections, assets only become active and start reporting once a shipment is assigned. If your assets appear inactive, confirm that shipments are correctly assigned to them.
When to contact support
If you have completed the checks above and your shipment is still not tracking, please contact your GPS provider or reach out to the project44 support team. Confirm with them that your vehicles are correctly shared and active within the system to receive further assistance.
