POD for partial deliveries
If multiple partial deliveries are made for a single order, a final, complete proof of delivery can be created automatically when all the packages have been delivered. Partial delivery cannot be combined with automatic POD copies, in the sense that no new order is created, neither for the part of the order that has been delivered nor for the part that has not yet been delivered.
It is also possible to use automatically created orders to manage partial deliveries. For more information, seeCreating new orders automatically based on POD.
Creating a POD type for a partial delivery
Click on Settings > Proof of delivery (POD) > Proof of delivery types and select a POD type from the list on the left or create a new one.
Select Partial delivery of packages under Partial delivery. For more information about the individual settings, see Proof of delivery types (window).
Creating a POD type for instances where all the packages on an order have been delivered
When all the packages on an order have been delivered, the POD type for all the constituent packages is automatically changed to, for example Delivered.
Click on Settings > Proof of delivery (POD) > Proof of delivery types and select a POD type from the list on the left or create a new one.
TipThis setting is usually applied for the Delivered POD type.
Select the following checkboxes:
Completed: This signals that no more proof of deliveries will be registered on the order.
Create POD of this type when all packages are partially delivered under Partial delivery.
Note:If this checkbox is selected for more than one POD type, it will be random as to which of the POD types is registered.
