What tracking options are available? (Order-Based Tracking)
At DRIP, vehicle visibility can be achieved using two different methods: Manual Vehicle Sharing and Order-Based Tracking.
Order-Based Tracking:
Order-based tracking works fully automatically via a tour or transport order:
The forwarder transmits a tour to DRIP, including the assigned truck.
DRIP checks whether the vehicle exists in the connected carrier account and automatically links the license plate to the tour.
Tracking starts automatically when the truck reaches the first stop within the defined time window.
Tracking ends automatically once the last stop is completed.
The carrier can use the https://d3eif.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/DPKB/pages/2252341249 in his DRIP account, to see exactly what the forwarder sees, as it displays all tours that are being tracked or are scheduled for tracking, including their current status.
Prerequisites for Order-Based Tracking:
Both the forwarder and the carrier must have a DRIP account (Registration).
Both the carrier and the forwarder must be set up as trusted partners. (How to accept an invitaton? How to invite Companies to DRIP ).

If you no longer want another company to track your vehicles, you can disable order-based tracking by disconnecting the “trusted partner” connection.
