The Marlin Mobile App enables proof of delivery (POD) information to be captured and recorded against finalised invoices, transfers and credit notes.
Captured details include receiver information, signature, photos, time and location data.
Submitted proof of delivery records are stored in Marlin GTX and are accessible from the related customer transaction for review and auditing purposes.
Delivery barcodes can also be printed on invoice documents to support fast transaction lookup during delivery.
Proof of delivery details can be taken for any finalised invoice, transfer or credit note.
Can select transfer type in app, but I had an error trying to print the transfer document, so could not check for barcode.
Printing POD Dockets
If POD functionality is enabled, a delivery barcode will be added to the delivery section of all Invoice documents.
Simply print (or send) the invoice document during finalisation and scan it when delivering the documents.
You do not need a barcode to take POD information, since you can also enter the invoice number.
Taking Proof Of Delivery
To access the Proof of Delivery module in the Marlin mobile app:
- Tap on the menu icon (three lines) at the top-right
- Then tap Proof of Delivery
In the Proof of Delivery window that opens:
- Select the Transaction Type (Invoice, Transfer or Credit Note)
- Either:
- Enter the Reference Number
- Or tap the
icon to scan the barcode (on the printed invoice)
- Tap Search
The delivery details will be shown below.
To enter the POD details, tap Deliver.
Device location tracking must be enabled to enter POD details.
The next app update will enable you to see the product detail lines within the app as well.
To take delivery:
- Enter the Customer Name at the top
- Have them Sign in the field below
- Tap Submit Proof of Delivery
Scroll down to:
- Enter Comments
- Take Photos
The signature and any attachments will be recorded and are viewable in GTX.
Some systems will not accept delivery unless a photo is attached.
Viewing POD in GTX
Once submitted, proof of delivery information can be viewed in GTX's Customer Maintenance module (Main > Customers > Customer Maintenance).
To view POD submissions:
- Open the relevant customer
- Click on the Transactions tab
- Select the relevant transaction
- Click on the Show Details icon at the top of the list
In the details panel that opens on the right:
- Click on the > (right arrow) button at the top-right to reveal more tabs
- Click on the Proof of Delivery tab
To view signatures and photos:
- Click on the Attachments tab to the left
- Double-click an attachment to open it
A quick way to see if POD information exists for transactions is to check the number in the Attachments (paperclip) column.
If the Attachments column contains a number there will likely be POD information attached.
