As a trading partner of a TraceLink customer, you can register for TraceLink portal access. Once you're set up on your TraceLink portal, you'll be able to view transaction history data from your partner.
Follow the steps below to get started with TraceLink's Product Track for portal access:
1. If you don't already have TraceLink portal access:
Request TraceLink portal access >
You'll complete a registration form. TraceLink uses the registration information to create your portal, set up your Company Administrator, and send an activation email.
2. Activate your TraceLink account.
Click the link in the activation email that TraceLink sends. Next, click the Activate My Account button on the page that displays. You'll receive a "Set TraceLink Account Password" email. Click the link. On the Activate Your Account page, enter your profile information and create a password.
3. Join the Product Track service.
To access your TraceLink portal, you must be a member of your partner's Product Track service. As a Company Administrator, you'll add yourself as an administrator of the Product Track service. Then you'll have access to Product Track and you'll be able to invite other members of your organization to join the Product Track service.
You'll then be able to view transaction histories from your trading partner.

| I am the first user at my company. How do I activate my TraceLink account? |
Watch the Activating Your Account as a Company's First User training video.
|
| Why don't I see Product Track US in the Modules menu? |
In order to see the Product Track tab, you first need to be assigned as a Service Administrator or a Service Member by a Company Administrator at your organization. If you are a Company Administrator, you can add yourself as a Service Member or a Service Administrator to a Service. If you are not the Company Administrator, please partner with the Company Administrator at your organization. Watch the Don't See What You Expect in the Modules Menu? training video for further direction.
|
| Why don't I see a certain partner in my Service Publisher drop-down menu in Product Track? |
If you are not a TraceLink customer, you will see in your Service Publisher drop-down menu only those partners that are TraceLink customers. However, for you to see your partners that are TraceLink customers, you or your organization's Company Administrator must first assign you as a Service Administrator or a Service Member for the partner's service.
|
| How do I view the regulatory data that my partners have sent? |
If you are not a TraceLink customer, you will see in your Services tab only those partners that are TraceLink customers.
