Fill in these fields to build your own carrier integration and allow that data to flow through Supply Chain Cloud.

Manage PRO Number

A PRO number is used to track LTL shipment progress. Supply Chain Cloud assigns a number from the number range allocated by the carrier.

Note

If a shipment has multiple pallets, there may be multiple PRO numbers to generate.

Important

Most carriers have a range of PRO numbers assigned to their account. Contact your carrier for this numbered range.

Click Manage PRO Number on a carrier line.

Create or edit the PRO number sequence.

FIELD	DESCRIPTION
Check Digit	Select the check digit that matches the carrier requirements: Mod7 Mod10
Prefix	Enter a prefix if required by the carrier.
Start Sequence	Select the first assigned number of the sequence.
End Sequence	Select the last assigned number of the sequence.
Threshold Sequence	Select a threshold for the sequence. This number drives alert logic for when you need to contact the carrier to assign another PRO number range to your account. Example If the sequence is 1000-9999 and you want to know 100 shipments before you hit your limit, the threshold sequence is 9899.
Length	Select the length of the sequence according to carrier specifications. Default is 8. Important This length does include the prefix or the check digit at the end of the PRO number.
Weighing Factor	Select the weighing factor to apply to Mod10 check digit calculations. Note This field is only enabled for Mod10 check digits.
