Create a delivery note manually

Follow this guide to create a secure POD request for a job. The guide then takes you through the correct route, the checks to complete before making changes, the workflow in order, and the evidence to review afterwards.

What you’ll accomplish

Create a secure POD request for a job. The instructions below follow the supplied module’s controller, form and model rules, including server-side validation and downstream effects.

Follow these steps

1. Go to Delivery Notes.
2. Select the job.
3. Verify recipient name and valid recipient email.
4. Set package quantity to at least 1.
5. Create the note.
6. Copy or send the generated public URL through the module.

Fields and options to review

Rules the system enforces

• The model defaults recipient/delivery data from the job.
• A job normally reuses its existing delivery note instead of creating duplicates.

How to confirm it worked

• The source record, status/history and any downstream notification, provider, POD or finance record should agree after the action.

Security, audit and operational checks

• Use the exact record and least-privilege role before changing any state.
• Verify the saved record after every action; a browser message alone is not evidence that every downstream step completed.
• Use protected document and image routes rather than exposing server filesystem paths.
• Keep customer, driver, provider, financial and credential data within the authorised workflow.
• For provider, finance, employment, transport and compliance decisions, follow the organisation’s authorised professional process.
