Pre-assigned Tracking Numbers
This article will teach you how to enter pre-assigned tracking numbers into AfterShip Shipping system for your shipper account. Tracking number will be automatically used whenever a label is created successfully.
Some couriers (e.g. DPD NL, SF Express, Asendia HK) pre-assign tracking numbers to your shipper accounts so that you can generate labels with those tracking numbers. Couriers like DHL, UPS, FedEx that assign tracking numbers automatically when creating the labels do not require this setup.
You can then add the tracking numbers at the Shipper Accounts tab by clicking +Tracking Numbers button after you setup the shipper account.
Some couriers just randomly provide you a list of tracking numbers to you. Enter the tracking numbers one per line.
Some couriers provide you a tracking number range with a beginning number and ending number, which you can enter in the tracking number settings.
