Today we’re excited to announce the release of our most highly voted ideas portal idea, Photos and Documents on Purchase Orders!

We’re progressively rolling this out across all CartonCloud accounts this week. To ensure you’re able to access this, please update your mobile app to version 6.4.0 or higher.

Photos and Documents on Purchase Orders allows you to provide photographic and video evidence of the way in which stock was received into your warehouse, and (optionally) share this with your customers. Additionally, you can store information for internal-only purposes, such as photographs of Chep dockets, receival paperwork, or other files.

Within Purchase Orders, you’ll find a new Documents tab. Each Purchase Order can contain multiple Documents, and each document can contain up to 100* attachments (Photos, Videos**, PDFs etc).

Documents can be configured to be either visible to customers, or only visible to internal users and can be created from either the mobile app or the web app.

Documents which are shared with customers are visible to them via the web portal, and also mentioned in Purchase Order Verified and Allocated email notifications.
