A “tracer” refers to a request made on a transportation line to track a shipment’s progress with the aim of expediting its movement or confirming its delivery. It is a common practice to use the term “tracer” to refer to any inquiry made to obtain the status of a shipment. When a tracer is initiated, the transportation provider investigates the whereabouts of the shipment, identifies any delays or issues, and provides updates to the requesting party. Tracers are essential for monitoring the movement of goods, ensuring timely delivery, and resolving any potential disruptions or concerns that may arise during transportation. They serve as a means to maintain visibility and accountability throughout the logistics process.
