Business Process Automation

View Events

For the selected shipment/container, the View Event History action displays all the shipment/container events that have been received, all the active milestone monitors, and the relationship between the two.

Shipment/container events describe activity that occurs during the life cycle of shipments. For example, events can indicate that a shipment is late arriving at a location and why. Shipment events associated with milestone monitors are displayed.

Note: Not all fields displayed for a shipment are used for displaying information about a container.
