Enabling Automated Container Tracking (ACT)
Purchase containers in a bundle (from an Account Manager or Account Exec)
Tell Logixboard which Orgs to enable enrichment for ongoing
Send a list of Org Code(s) directly to an Account Manager or file a ticket with Support via [email protected]
Tell Logixboard if you want to enable “writeback” to CargoWise for these milestones
Existing containers with an In Transit status and any new containers will be enriched as long as we have the minimum required fields for enrichment (see below: Minimum Necessary Information needed to enable ACT)
Within the first week, we will support ACT rollout and help you keep an eye out for containers that were not enriched because of “bad data”.
"Bad data" is defined as:
Missing Master Bill of Lading (MBL), SCAC, or Container Numbers
MBL does not match the carrier's MBL (internal MBLs are not supported)
SCAC is not supported
Typo in the MBL, SCAC or Container Numbers
Once identified, 'bad data' can be rectified by updating missing/inaccurate fields in CW1. We will attempt again to enrich these containers with new information.
Purchasing More Containers for ACT
Reach out to your CSM or Account Manager to inquire about bundle pricing for more containers.
Disabling ACT
If you no longer want new shipments enrolled in ACT enrichment, submit a ticket to [email protected] with the org code(s) to stop enriching moving forward.
