Scan Packages
Step 1
From your property's staff app, select Packages.

This will open a camera feature. Focus in on the recipient of the package, and take the picture.
Note: If the photo is blurry, you will need to retake the picture or enter the information on the right-hand side.
The recipient information will populate after a clear picture is taken. You are also able to update/edit that information.

Mark Packages as Picked Up

Under Packages, you will see the records of packages that have been scanned and are awaiting pickup.
Step 2
Click the checkboxes next to the packages you would like to mark as picked up. Select Marked as Picked Up. This will send a notification to the recipient that it has been picked up.

Marking Packages as Awaiting Pickup
