Tracertrak | What are the differences between Fixed, Flexible and All Broadcast check-ins? (NGC)
Each check-in type has a different check-in schedule expectation, each type has its own pros and cons.
There are three types of Check-ins:
Fixed Check-ins Regulated, mandatory check-ins suited when control is more important than flexibility.
Flexible Check-ins User controlled check-ins which provide flexibility and reduces management dependency.
All Transmissions Check-ins Activity based check-ins which provide flexibility and early warning alarms of potential issue.
