The Visibility Control Center (VCC) is your central hub for data transparency. It lets you control access to your visibility data, monitor your carrier network’s performance, and verify vehicle availability—all in one place.

High-quality, real-time visibility depends on a well-managed network. Whether you are a Shipper or a Logistic Service Provider (LSP), the VCC provides tools to keep your ecosystem connected and secure.

​

Key Capabilities

  • Outgoing Visibility (Carriers & LSPs): Manage which customers receive your tracking updates.

  • Incoming Visibility: Track the onboarding progress of your carrier network.

  • Verify Assets: Use the License Plate Lookup to check vehicle status before allocation.

1. Customers Tab: Outgoing Visibility

Shippers will not see this tab as they do not provide visibility data to others.
​
If you are a Carrier or an LSP, this section shows you exactly which data subscribers (Shippers or Forwarders) have access to your real-time visibility data.
​

  • View Consent: See to whom you have accepted to share data and the specific date the agreement began.

  • Manage Access: An ADMIN user can cancel—and later undo the cancellation of—a data-sharing agreement directly from the side panel.

  • Declining Consent: If you cancel, you will remain in the customer’s network table, but your consent status will change from Accepted to Declined until you opt-in on data sharing again

  • Data Flow: Once declined, no data is shared with that customer unless an ADMIN user manually turns the data-sharing consent back on.
