  1. Determine which of your freight carriers provide track and trace functionality on their websites.

  4. Navigate to 'Settings' --> 'Settings'.
  5. Select the Freight tab. 
  6. Update the 'Carrier Codes for Track and Trace' field. Enter all trackable PRONTO carrier codes in a semicolon-separated format (e.g. "TNT;TOLL;POST;IPEC").
     
  7. Define the Track & Trace URL for each carrier:
    1. On the Freight tab of the Settings page, select a trackable carrier from the Standard Freight table.
    2. Click 'Modify'.
    3. In the 'Track and Trace URL' field, enter the carrier's URL with the placeholder {0} for the Consignment Note string.
      (For example, Australia Post would be 'http://auspost.com.au/track/track.html?id={0}'. Once the user clicks the tracking link, the {0} will be replaced by the consignment note number for that particular sales order).
