Senders (15) ship products (21) in packages (13) to receivers (17) via a carrier (19).

As the packages (13) progress through the carrier's transport and storage network (18), they pass through one or more portals (9) and are scanned to generate event data (31) transmitted to the computer system (2) for storage with the linked data to provide status information regarding the products (21) in the carrier's network (18).
