Most notably, they can be key to disputing costly claims and in making product release decisions at delivery. Tive’s reports offer the following: - **Centralized Data**: All relevant shipment information in one file to share with key stakeholders. - **Flexible Export Options**: Choose between PDF, PDF with raw data, or CSV formats. - **Detailed Logs**: Timestamps and geolocation data ensure full traceability. - **Automated Sharing**: Send reports directly to internal users or external[collaborators](https://support.tive.com/sharing-shipments?hsLang=en-us)upon shipment completion (Plus tier). ### **Accessing Shipment Reports** Reports can be both accessed and generated from two areas in the platform, the reports tab or an individual shipment’s details. If you want to create a report with data from multiple shipments, you must go to the reports tab. To access reports via: **Reports Tab**: View, download, or generate reports across multiple shipments. - Select **Shipments \> Reports** from the navigation menu. Select **Generate New Report** in the upper right corner. **Shipment View**: Generate a report for a specific shipment. - Select **Shipments \> All Shipments** and then select an individual shipment. Go to the Reports tab and then select **Generate New Report**. ### **Generating Reports** Once you access the report generation page using either of the methods mentioned above, you will be able to configure the report. You’ll be prompted to select: **Shipments** (via reports tab only)**:** - Select one or multiple shipments to include in the report **Type**: - PDF - PDF with raw sensor data - CSV ***Note**: PDF with raw sensor data is supported for shipment reports up to 500 pages in length.* **Date Range** (single shipment report only): Set a custom date and time range to include specific shipment activity, or select the full shipment duration. - The start date is either the shipment’s scheduled departure time OR the time the shipment was manually started by a user (whichever occurs first). - The end date is the time the shipment was completed. By default, a shipment is completed 24 hours after it arrives at the destination. However, a custom**[shipment completion delay](https://new.support.tive.com/shipment-auto-complete-delay?hsLang=en-us)** can be configured in account settings. A shipment may also be completed manually at any time. - If the shipment is not yet completed, selecting “full duration” will use the current time as the end date. ***Note**: If you select multiple shipments, the reports will be generated for the whole shipment duration.* **Sensor Data** (select any combination): - Temperature - Humidity - Light - Acceleration - Battery - Probe **Format** (multiple shipment report only)**:**  - All shipments in a single file - One file for each shipment **Generation Settings:** Determine when you want the report to generate - now or in the future. - Immediately - When Shipment Completes - A shipment completes when it reaches the destination geofence, unless the[shipment auto-complete delay](https://new.support.tive.com/shipment-auto-complete-delay?hsLang=en-us) is turned on. A shipment may also be completed manually by a user. - When the shipment is X miles from the Destination - The report will be generated when the shipment is X miles from the destination address - it does not take into account the location geofence. **Visibility Settings:** - Visible to me only - Visible to all users in my account - Visible to all users in my account and shipment collaborators **Other Settings**: - Timezone - Language (English or Spanish) ![](https://support.tive.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Rich%20Text%20Pasting/google-1744982145211.gif?width=569&height=426&name=google-1744982145211.gif) ### **What’s in the Report** Each report includes: - Timestamp of report generation - Shipment ID, route, departure, and arrival times - Carrier and mode of transport - Alert summary: types, counts, durations - If an alert triggers multiple times, the duration is the cumulative duration of the alert - Sensor metric summaries (if a sensor metric option other than location was selected) - A chart with the selected sensor metric over the duration selected in the report configuration - The min, max, and average value of the selected sensor metric by leg - MKT (Mean Kinetic Temperature)  - MKT is most often used by the pharmaceutical industry to understand the impact of temperature on the stability of a drug. It is a weighted average temperature that gives more weight to longer durations at higher temperatures. - Tive includes the data from the date range selected in the report configuration for its MKT calculation. ### **Best Practices** - Use automation to schedule recurring reports - Share reports efficiently using the "Send to Users" option - Set the correct timezone and language for clarity of the report reader For any additional questions, contact [support@tive.com.](mailto:support@tive.com) - [Getting Started](https://support.tive.com/en-us/getting-started?hsLang=en-us#main-content) - [Platform](https://support.tive.com/en-us/getting-started?hsLang=en-us#platform) - [Trackers](https://support.tive.com/en-us/getting-started?hsLang=en-us#trackers) - [Tive Mobile App](https://support.tive.com/en-us/getting-started?hsLang=en-us#tive-mobile-app) - [Tive Devices](https://support.tive.com/en-us/tive-devices?hsLang=en-us#main-content) - [Devices](https://support.tive.com/en-us/tive-devices?hsLang=en-us#devices) - [Tive Tag](https://support.tive.com/en-us/tive-devices?hsLang=en-us#tive-tag) - [Functionality](https://support.tive.com/en-us/tive-devices?hsLang=en-us#functionality) - [Your Organization](https://support.tive.com/en-us/your-organization?hsLang=en-us#main-content) - [Software](https://support.tive.com/en-us/your-organization?hsLang=en-us#software) - [Hardware](https://support.tive.com/en-us/your-organization?hsLang=en-us#hardware) - [Shipments](https://support.tive.com/en-us/shipments?hsLang=en-us#main-content) - [Shipment Alerts](https://support.tive.com/en-us/shipments?hsLang=en-us#shipment-alerts) - [Shipment Creation](https://support.tive.com/en-us/shipments?hsLang=en-us#shipment-creation) - [Shipment Data](https://support.tive.com/en-us/shipments?hsLang=en-us#shipment-data) - [Settings](https://support.tive.com/en-us/shipments?hsLang=en-us#settings) - [Shipment Collaboration](https://support.tive.com/en-us/shipments?hsLang=en-us#shipment-collaboration) - [Tive Reveal](https://support.tive.com/en-us/tive-reveal?hsLang=en-us#main-content) - [Tive Reveal Overview](https://support.tive.com/en-us/tive-reveal?hsLang=en-us#tive-reveal-overview) - [Data Processing and Freshness](https://support.tive.com/en-us/tive-reveal?hsLang=en-us#data-processing-and-freshness) - [Carrier Insights](https://support.tive.com/en-us/tive-reveal?hsLang=en-us#carrier-insights) - [Lane Insights](https://support.tive.com/en-us/tive-reveal?hsLang=en-us#lane-insights) - [Sharing Data](https://support.tive.com/en-us/sharing-data?hsLang=en-us#main-content) - [Shipments](https://support.tive.com/en-us/sharing-data?hsLang=en-us#shipments) - [Analytics](https://support.tive.com/en-us/analytics?hsLang=en-us#main-content) - [Platform](https://support.tive.com/en-us/analytics?hsLang=en-us#platform) - [Dashboards](https://support.tive.com/en-us/analytics?hsLang=en-us#dashboards) - [Workflow Automations](https://support.tive.com/en-us/workflow-automations?hsLang=en-us#main-content) - [Workflow Automations Overview](https://support.tive.com/en-us/workflow-automations?hsLang=en-us#workflow-automations-overview) - [Workflow Automation Templates](https://support.tive.com/en-us/workflow-automations?hsLang=en-us#workflow-automation-templates) [![tive logo white](https://support.tive.com/hubfs/tive%20logo%20white.svg "tive logo white")](http://tive.com) © 2026 Tive is a registered trademark of Tive, Inc.
