What events are recorded about packages?
Package movement information is captured each time a tracking label is scanned in the UPS delivery system. Common scans include the following: • Billing Information Received: UPS has received the electronic transmission of package detail from the shipper. It does not necessarily mean that UPS has taken possession of the package. • Origin: The package has been scanned at the origin UPS location. • Departure: The package has left its present location and is on its way towards the destination address. • Arrival: The package has arrived at an intermediate sort facility or the destination facility. • Out for Delivery: The package has reached the facility that is responsible for delivering the package. This is a package’s last stop before delivery. • Delivery: The package has been delivered. The date and time of delivery is recorded. • Exception: If the package cannot be delivered or is delayed, the reason is noted.
