# Overquota

Overquota for shipments refers to exceeding the allowed or allotted quantity of shipments, whether it be for a specific carrier or destination country. This can occur due to a variety of reasons, such as increased demand or unexpected delays. It's crucial for businesses to proactively monitor their shipment quotas and take necessary actions to avoid exceeding them, as it may result in additional charges, delays, or other operational challenges

## Problems

* Disruption of order fulfillment process
* Delayed shipping and delivery times
* Potential negative impact on customer satisfaction and brand reputation

## Solutions

You will be alerted about exceeding your shipment quota through email or in-app notifications on the shipment list or order details page.
