Add EVRi tracking account

A tracking account is a dedicated account that helps users, businesses, or customers to monitor and manage the status of shipments in real-time. This account provides access to tracking information for parcels and freight moving through logistics network or with specific carriers.

In SAPIENT, you can add tracking accounts for EVRi to enhance visibility, improving customer interactions, and streamlining logistics operations for EVRi.

Before adding an EVRi tracking account, you need to send a corresponding request to EVRi via email with your EVRi client account manager cc'd in your request. In the email, make sure to add the following information:

  • Client ID
  • Client name
  • Tracking type you want
  • Schedule for receiving tracking files

It can take up to 5 working days for EVRi to set up the tracking and provide the relevant credentials.
