Prevent delivery scanning if the resource is not stated on the last shipment

The scanning done upon delivery to the receiver on the order is called delivery scanning. This sets the POD type to Delivered (if you have not renamed it). The delivery scan is therefore the scan that is carried out when unloading the last shipment on the order, and sets the entire order to the status Delivered.

It can also be configured so that only the resource stated on the last shipment can do a delivery scan in Opter Driver. The resource stated on the last shipment must therefore be logged in to Opter Driver in order to be able to scan it for delivery. This is to prevent the order from being delivery scanned by mistake if the various shipments are assigned to different resources.

Click on Settings > Offices > Scanning tab and select Block delivery scan if the shipment is not allocated to the resource.

Example

If an order has two shipments with different resources, the resource on the first shipment cannot delivery scan when unloading that shipment at the terminal, even though the resource has "finished" its part of the order.

The setting does not prevent incorrect use of delivery scanning. In our example above, if the two shipments are assigned to the same resource, this resource can scan the first shipment when arriving at the terminal, when the goods should have been arrival scanned.
