What do the different types of notifications tell me about my shipments?
An e-mail notification is sent when a shipment event occurs as the shipment moves through the UPS system. There are three shipment events that trigger a notification:

  • Ship: A Ship notification tells you when shipment information has been received by UPS.  
  • Exception: An Exception notification informs you about the unforeseen events resulting in a change to the expected delivery day and includes the rescheduled delivery date.
  • Delivery: A Delivery notification tells you when the shipment has been delivered.

What information do I receive from a ship notification?
The ship notification informs customers that UPS has received information about the shipment electronically from the shipper. This does not always indicate that the shipper has given the shipment to UPS. It is possible for the shipper to process the shipment and upload the shipping information to the UPS data network before the shipment is picked up or delivered to UPS.

Can I use my own references or UPS InfoNotice numbers with Quantum View Notify?

I selected Exception notification but never received an e-mail. Is something wrong?
Exception notifications let you know ahead of time if your shipment is not going to arrive on the scheduled date of delivery. If your shipment is delivered on schedule, you will not receive an Exception notification.
