Expedient will load pdf Proof of Delivery (POD) from a designated folder that an external party has sent the documents to. Expedient will process the documents according to the filename and send the POD pdf to the Public Documents folder for the relevant job. Please contact Expedient Software if you would like to use this facility.
The filename for the POD pdf file must conform to the following format
JobPOD_<order number>-<containerkey>_<Container Number>_<Expedient Job Number>_<timestamp>
The format for the timestamp must be YYYYMMDDHHMMSS
On receipt of the pdf file to the specified folder the system will check that a job exists matching the job number and the container number in the filename. If the job number and container number are found the file will be saved to the Public Documents folder for the Job and a POD event is created in the Job for the container.
If there is problem matching either the job number or container number Expedient will send a message to designated recipients to advise of the problem allocating the file. The file will be placed in a designated ‘Rejected’ folder so that the file can be checked and attached to the correct Expedient Job Documents folder manually.
