Live Delivery Status Sync in Real Time
In last mile delivery, timing isn’t just important—it’s everything. Customers expect live tracking. Retailers demand visibility. Dispatchers need real-time updates to manage exceptions. That’s why TrackOps by Mondo Cloud Solutions delivers a fully integrated, real-time Status Update system, specifically tailored for last mile carriers and logistics providers in London, Ontario, Canada and across North America.
Whether you’re working with DispatchTrack, OnTime360, or your own in-house TMS, TrackOps bridges the gap between TMS platforms and retailers like Home Depot, Floor & Decor, and others. The result? Status transparency that builds trust, reduces delays, and eliminates blind spots across the delivery chain.
What Are Real-Time Status Updates?
Real-Time Status Updates allow TrackOps to continuously sync order statuses between:
TMS ↔️ TrackOps ↔️ Retailers
This includes:
Order received
Out for delivery
Delivered successfully
Failed delivery (with reason codes)
Returned to depot
Reattempt scheduled
TrackOps uses custom mapping to match each TMS status with its retailer equivalent and vice versa.
Supported Formats:
TrackOps supports a wide range of formats for status syncing, including:
JSON (via REST API)
XML (via HTTP or SFTP)
CSV (manual or batch upload)
EDI 214 (Transportation Carrier Shipment Status)
This flexibility makes it easy to connect with virtually any retailer system or TMS.
Why Status Syncing Is Critical in Last Mile
Without accurate and timely status updates:
Retailers get blind-spotted
Customers flood support lines
Disputes increase due to missing records
Invoicing is delayed
Delivery performance is unclear
TrackOps solves this with automated, auditable, and real-time updates that flow both ways.
How TrackOps Status Update Works:
1. TMS to TrackOps
Once a delivery action occurs in the TMS (e.g., “Delivered” or “Failed”), TrackOps pulls that status via API or file listener and stores it with full context.
2. Custom Status Mapping
Each status is matched to the equivalent retailer code, including failure reason codes (e.g., customer not home, refused delivery, etc.).
3. TrackOps to Retailer
TrackOps sends the updated status to the retailer using the required format (XML, API, EDI 214), along with metadata like timestamp, proof of delivery, notes, etc.
4. Retailer to TrackOps (Optional)
Retailers can also send status requests or changes back to TrackOps (e.g., hold, cancel, reschedule), which are routed to the TMS as needed.
Deep Connection with Other TrackOps Modules
Real-Time Status Updates don’t function in isolation—they are tightly woven into the TrackOps ecosystem:
Order Integration: Status tracking begins the moment an order is imported
TMS Integration: Updates are pulled directly from TMS
Billing Automation: Statuses trigger invoice creation (e.g., delivered = billable)
Business Analytics: Status data feeds into KPIs like on-time rate, failure rate, reattempt rate
Inventory Tracking: Returned items are flagged via status codes
