POD view in Opter Driver
Applies to Opter Driver for iOS and Opter Driver Labs for Android.
In this article
The proof of delivery (POD view) is displayed in Opter Driver at the following times:
-
When the driver changes the status of a shipment and has to register a proof of delivery.
-
When the driver presses the menu item Proof of delivery or the POD-type name, for example Kedagi pole kodus, in the detail view. For more information, see Setting the POD-type as a quick selection in the Opter Driver menu.
The fields and buttons that are displayed and those that are mandatory to fill in can be defined. Drivers who are logged in to Opter Driver when the settings are saved will need to log out and back in to see the changes. For example, the POD view might look like this.
In the image above, the driver selects the proof of delivery type (1), enters the consignee's name (2), adds the signature (3), remark (4), possible comment (5), image (6), deviation (7), possible Price items (8) and loose items (9) and then saves the proof of delivery (10). For more information, see Pods (POD) in Opter Driver.
-
All POD-types to be used in Opter Driver must be enabled. Go to Seaded > Veokiri (POD) > Veokirja tüüp and select Saadaval mobiilseadmes.
-
If there is a checklist on the order, if the driver should check the waybill number or if the order is delayed and it is mandatory to enter a delay comment, those blocks are displayed in this view.
Preparation
Many of the settings below will be made in the same window in Opter. So you can choose to do in one of the following ways:
-
Follow the instructions below, thereby making the settings for one field at a time (and jumping between the windows).
-
Open one window at a time and make all the settings there, then move on to the next window. Follow the instructions below to find out which settings can be made. The following window contains various settings for the POD view:
-
Seaded > Mobiilne andmeside > Mobiilse andmeside seaded. For more information, see Mobiilse andmeside seaded (window) and below.
-
Seaded > Veokiri (POD) > Veokirja tüüp. For more information, see Veokirja tüüp (window) and below.
-
Register > Kliendid, Veokiri (POD) tab. (To make exceptions for certain customers).
-
Options on the menu in the detail view
The option Proof of delivery is always displayed by default on the menu in the detail view (1). If you want to hide it, set the Mobile data settings ProofOfDeliveryPermission to "false". You can also add shortcuts to common POD-types directly on the menu by selecting Display on the menu in Opter Driver on that POD-type (2).
Shortcuts are affected if you set any of the Mobile data settings ManualStatusChangePickUpPermission and ManualStatusChangeDeliveryPermission to "false". They are there so that the status can only be changed by scanning, not manually via the menu. Therefore, shortcuts to PODs associated with the status change Määra olekuks korje/laetud and Määra olekuks tarnitud/mahalaaditud will be hidden if you set the Mobile data settings to "false". For more information, see Mobiilse andmeside seaded (window) and Veokirja tüüp (window).

In the Comment field, the driver can enter a comment manually or scan a barcode or QR code containing the comment. Proceed as follows:

The field Number of packages
This feature can be useful if you are not scanning. The driver indicates the number of packages for which the pod is valid. Once the pod has been registered, the specified number of packages will be displayed in the Kinnitatud pakkeüksused column under Veokiri (POD) in the Order reception.
The field Number of packages is displayed by default. If you want to hide it, set the Mobile data settings PodPackageCountEnabled to "false".
The field is not displayed when drivers have scanned a parcel or a Freight bill, and then enter the POD view. If the driver has scanned one or more parcels, the pod is registered for the scanned parcels. If the driver has scanned a Freight bill, the delivery pod for all packages is recorded on the Freight bill.
If the column Kinnitatud pakkeüksused is not displayed in the Order reception, you can find it in the order settings. Go to the Kontroll tab (1), click on next to the Veokiri (POD) drop-down menu (2) and move Kinnitatud kogus to Kaasas (3).
The field Add image
This feature allows drivers to add a picture to the pod. You can also make it compulsory.

The Mobile data settings GetPictureFromGalleryPermission do not only apply to the POD view. It applies to all places in the app where the driver can add images, such as in the detail view and when recording deviations. For more information, see Mobiilse andmeside seaded (window).
Information for drivers is available at Adding images to Opter Driver.
The button Loose items
Choose whether drivers should indicate the number of loose items when recording pods, and whether it should be mandatory. It is done with two Mobile data settings.
|
Desired features of the app |
What settings need to be made? |
|---|---|
|
|
LooseItemsPermission = "true". LooseItemForceSetValue = "true". The driver must indicate the number of loose items he is taking back after delivery. It will only be mandatory if there are already loose items on the order. In theory, there could be an end value, but no start value. In such cases, the driver must indicate Starting quantity when collecting from the sender. |
|
|
LooseItemsPermission = "true". |
|
|
No settings need to be made, this is the default setting. |
LooseItemsPermission displays the Loose items button both in the POD view and on the menu in the detail view. It cannot be displayed in just one place.
Information for drivers is available at Pods (POD) in Opter Driver.
The Deviation button
If you have ticked Saadaval mobiilseadmes for at least one deviation type, the option Deviation will appear in the POD view and on the menu in the detail view. You can hide it by setting the Mobile data settings DamagesPermission to "false". You can also make it mandatory for the driver to add a deviation when a POD of a certain type is registered.

Call one of them "Broken packaging - Order reception" and the other "Broken packaging - Apps". |
|
|
AddNewDamagePermission = "false". |
|
|
DamagesPermission = "false". This is actually the default setting as Saadaval mobiilseadmes = |
Set a preset deviation type, and possibly deviation event and deviation reason, on the POD-types to which it is mandatory to add a deviation, so drivers do not have to manually select it in the app.
See also Require deviation for POD registration in Opter Driver.
It is also possible to claim deviation in case of late delivery, see Managing delays in Opter Driver.
The button Price item
If you have selected Saadaval mobiilseadmes for at least one Price item in the price list, the button Price item will appear in the POD view and Price items in the menu in the detail view. You can hide them by setting the Mobile data settings ArticlesPermission to "false". You can also make it mandatory for the driver to add a Price item when a POD of a certain type is registered. This approach cannot be overridden for individual customers.
For more information on how to set up the item view, see The price item view in Opter Driver.

The button Changes
The menu item Changes is displayed by default in the POD view and on the menu in the detail view. If you do not want drivers to be able to make changes to shipments, set the Mobile data settings ChangesPermission to "false". For more information, see Changes to orders in Opter Driver.
If you need to make at least one change to the shipment/order in order to change the status to Korjatud (for example), select Nõua muudatusi for the status Korjatud in the window Elutsüklid. For more information, see Require changes when changing status in Opter Driver.
By default, changes made in Opter Driver must be manually approved in dispatch for the change to be saved, but it can be set so that no changes at all need to be approved, or only certain changes need to be approved. For more information, see Setting how changes made in Opter Driver are approved.
The SMS signature button
Choose whether drivers should be able to send SMS with a link directly to the order on Track & Trace where the recipient can sign the pod on their own device. For more information, see Activating SMS with a link to Track & Trace.
Warning for early collection
You can set the driver to receive a warning displayed in the POD view if they manually set the status of a shipment to Korjatud earlier than the earliest pick-up time specified on the order. Instructions and more details are available at Warning in case of premature collection, Opter Driver.
