During the lifetime of an order, order items and their belonging shipment(s), the order/ order item / shipment passes through different statuses and a various number of events occur. These statuses and events are either set by the shop, by Seven Senders or triggered due to incoming tracking updates from carriers. In addition, the events are displayed on Seven Senders tracking pages and used to trigger notifications, if configured.
The Seven Senders Portal receives hundreds of different carrier messages and we map them onto our standard events and statuses. Due to this 'harmonisation' of carrier messages, the performance of carriers is comparable and can be monitored in Analytics. This makes it simple and easy to understand what is happen with an order/order item/shipment as it's always the same, regardless of carrier.
TABLE OF CONTENTS
Explanation
A status describes the stage in the delivery journey the order / order item / shipment is in e.g. Out for Delivery. Events are the things that happen while an order/ order item / shipment moves through the stages of the delivery journey e.g. shipment delayed. Events provide the granular details of what is happening. Multiple events can happen while an order / order item / shipment is in one particular status. Some events can only happen once while others can happen multiple times and some events come with a status change while others do not.
Statuses and events are visible on the tracking page and events are also used to trigger notifications and analyse the lifetime of a shipment.
Example 1
A shipment is in status "New". The carrier informs that it is aware of the shipment and has received the data for the upcoming shipment. The carrier message initiates a switch of the shipment from status "New" to status "Info" and the event "Delivery requested at the carrier's" is created.
Example 2
A shipment is in "Pickup". The carrier informs that the shipment has been scanned in the distribution center. The carrier message initiates a switch of the shipment from status "Pickup" to status "Hub Scan at LMC" and the event "(First) hub scan" is created. The carrier later informs that the shipment is delayed due to operational problems. To generalize this Carrier message then creates an event "Delayed", but the status of the shipment does not change and is still in "Hub Scan at LMC". The event can trigger a notification informing the customer about the delay. It can also be used to analyse the performance of the carrier.
Overview Status
The statuses are listed per level - order, outbound and return shipment. Each level has dedicated status.

Non-Trackable Shipment Events
Shipments can be marked as non-trackable shipments, when sending the shipment via API (shipment POST). Non-trackable shipments do not receive real-time tracking updates from the carrier. This can be for example bulky goods shipped with a special freight forwarder or a carrier delivering small letters.
Still we offer the possibility to display tracking updates on the tracking page - more details here.
| Event Type | Description | Trigger Type | Max Occurrences Per Non Tackable Shipment | Availability to Trigger Notifications for Non Trackable Shipments |
| Non-trackable shipment created | Will be created/displayed when the shipment has been created in Seven Senders Portal (sent via API). | Logic | Once | Yes |
| On its way | As soon as the 'planned pickup date' sent via API for the non-trackable shipment is in the past, the shipment is marked as 'On its way'. | Logic | Once | Yes |
Expected to be delivered | The expected delivery date is calculated by summing up the planned pickup date + the SLA days set-up in the setting for the carrier. If this date is in the past, the event is created. | Logic | Once | Yes ❗Please make sure the SLA settings are complete. [more details here] |
