Tracking not linked to a transaction

Error message: ShipHawk Shipment Tracking Number is not linked to any existing iPaaS.com Transaction

Error message: Shipping Method {Carrier} needs to be created manually in iPaaS.com first

  • Description: the shipment's carrier does not match a Shipping Method configured in iPaaS.com. The carrier comparison is case-sensitive.

  • Resolution: create the Shipping Method in iPaaS.com with the exact carrier name (including letter casing), then re-run the sync.

Unable to link tracking number

Error message: Unable to dynamically link to existing iPaaS Transaction Tracking using Tracking Number of iPaaS matching with Tracking Number of ShipHawk. This may result in duplicate transaction tracking records.

  • Description: a matching tracking record could not be resolved on the transaction, which can lead to duplicate tracking records.

  • Resolution: confirm the order and its existing tracking are correct in iPaaS.com. If duplicate tracking records appear, contact iPaaS.com Support.
