iPad app
Manage couriers
Keep your location's courier list up to date, and ban couriers you no longer accept packages from.
A courier is the person who drops off or picks up a package. Your location keeps a list of couriers with their photo, company, and ID number. Managers and Associates can add, edit, ban, and unban couriers in the iPad app.
View couriers
- In the iPad app, go to Settings > Courier management.
- Tap Active or Banned.
- (Optional) Pull down on the list to refresh it.
- Tap a courier to see their company, total visits, and activity history: incoming packages, outgoing packages, and escort visits, grouped by month.
Add a courier
- On the Couriers screen, tap the add button (+) at the top right.
- (Optional) Tap Scan ID and take a photo of the courier's ID. The app fills in First name, Last name, and ID number from it. Check them before you continue.
- Enter the First name and Last name.
- Tap Photo, then tap Take Photo or Choose from Library.
- Tap Company and tap the courier's company.
- (Optional) Enter the ID number.
- Tap Save courier.
The courier appears on the Active tab. You can also add a courier while you log a package. See Log an incoming package.
Edit a courier
- Go to Settings > Courier management and tap the courier.
- Tap the edit icon at the top right.
- Tap a field to change it: First Name, Last Name, ID Number, or Comments. Enter the new value and tap Done.
- (Optional) Tap Company and tap a different company.
- Tap Save Changes.
Ban or unban a courier
- Go to Settings > Courier management and tap the courier.
- Tap Ban. For a banned courier, tap Unban.
- In the confirmation dialog, tap Ban or Unban.
A banned courier moves to the Banned tab. Banned couriers can't be chosen when you log a package or mark an outgoing package as picked up: if you tap one, the app shows Courier Banned. Unbanning moves the courier back to Active.
You can also ban or unban from the edit screen: tap Ban Courier or Unban Courier at the bottom.
Important: Banning affects everyone who logs packages at your location.
Troubleshooting
- Save courier is grayed out: First name, Last name, Photo, and Company are required.
- Save Changes is grayed out: ID Number is required when you edit a courier. Enter it to save other changes.
- Permission Required: allow camera or photo library access for the app in the iPad's Settings.
