Shipping Notification E-mail
If you provide your e-mail address when submitting your order, you will receive an e-mail from Tech Data when your order has been received and again when it has been shipped. If your order is being shipped from more than one warehouse, you will receive a separate e-mail from each warehouse.
The Shipping Notification E-mail is divided into three sections: general information about the entire order, a listing of all containers and their contents, and summary financial information.
