Pricing for Notifications
...
Users must be signed up to Subscribed Track & Trace which is a monthly charge of $118 excl. GST.
Notifications cost $0.20 per Notification. Users can sign up for as many or as few Notification event types (called Notification Defaults) as they like and based on this multiple Notification events could be sent for a single container.

Access Notification DefaultsBefore you can start requesting notification you need to set up the different types of notifications that you want to be able to receive. These are called Notification Defaults. Hover your mouse over the PortConnect tab and and select Manage Notification Defaults.  This will take you for the Notification Defaults page. On this page you can set up the Notification Types you want to be able to receive. Note – you only need to do this once and the defaults will display on the Container Notifications page.  |
| Info |
|---|
Create a Notification Default To set up a Notification Type first select the type of notification you would like to receive. There are currently 17 different notification types.  Next you must enter the email address you would like the notifications to be sent to. You can add multiple Notification Defaults and also add multiple email addresses for a single Notification Type. Click the Save button once you have entered the email address. By clicking Save you agree to accept all charges for these notifications. Once you have clicked Save, the Notification Default will display under Current Notification Defaults. Once you have finished setting up your Notification Defaults you can start requesting notifications against containers. |

Delete a Notification DefaultIf you wish to delete a notification type, you can do so by clicking in the circle on the left hand side of the Notification Default and then clicking Delete. The Notification Default will then be removed from your list.  |

Viewing Notifications via PortConnect website
...
Business to Business (B2B) Registration Of Interest (ROI) is a way to register interest in containers so that you can automatically receive Notifications. A ROI message can be generated by your system and sent to PortConnect in a XML format. PortConnect will then register your interest in the requested container(s) and begin sending Notifications based on the defaults you have set up. This is an alternative to manual Registration of Interest through the PortConnect website.
You can read more in the B2B Notifications ROI On-Boarding Guide.

Requesting Notifications via API
PortConnect has an API (Application Programme Interface) version of the notifications functionality providing a new, more modern way of sending and retrieving data from PortConnect. You can read more about this on our API Documentation.
