Delivery — You now have the option to collect carrier information in both Delivery (Simple) and Delivery with Integrated Order Sync. This option was previously only available in TrackAbout Mobile 6.
When this option is enabled, select Common Carrier from the options menu (

To enable Carrier selection, contact TrackAbout Support.

If a new EG is not immediately available from your provisioning system, you can enter a contingency (temporary) number to use so the delivery can be completed.
