[[File:ACIShipmentSearchPage.jpg|400px|thumb|right|Viewing the '''~~Search~~ ACI Shipment''' page]]The ACI Shipment Search Page is a page in BorderConnect [https://www.borderconnect.com/aci-e-manifest/index.htm ACI eManifest software] where the user can look up an ACI Shipment or group of shipments for the purpose of tracking or to make changes. There are many search options available. By default the search will display shipments for the last week so that only the most current shipments are displayed.

This ~~section of the~~ page allows the user to search for shipments using a number of different options. By default it will display shipments with a Date Created Between one week ago and the present day. By altering the search options though the user can search any shipment ever created on the system, filtering by whatever criteria desired. e.g. the user could search for all shipments of a particular [[Shipment_Types_For_ACE_and_ACI_eManifest|Shipment Type]] last month, or all shipments ever to cross at the port of Sarnia, etc. Another common use is to simply search for an individual shipment by ~~Cargo Control Number~~.
