I have a Generic Inquiry that displays shipment information based on the tracking number that is input into a parameter. We have EasyPost integrated into our Acumatica, and we have the Tracking URL as one of the fields in the Generic Inquiry. 

Is there a way to make the Tracking URL link active in the Generic Inquiry so the user can simply click on the URL and view the tracking information on the EasyPost tracking page? 

Thank you

Tip: If the external link is a fully formed URL, use triple (3) parentheses. Ex: (((TrackingURL)))

If you need URL encoding, use double (2) parentheses: Ex: https://www.google.com/search?q=((TrackingNbr))

The former is useful if you use multiple carriers (e.g. UPS, FedEx, USPS) where the URL convention is different depending on the carrier.

Thank you. This is exactly what I was missing. I needed another parentheses. The links needed are not to a standard marketplace and the double parentheses was not the right solution for our scenario. This resolved the issue of all forward slashes appearing as %2F .
