How to access Parcel Management from the Home Screen Configuring Parcel Management settings

In order to use Parcel Management, you first need to add a "Mail Room" point of interest on your desired map.

  1. Open the desired map in Map Editor.
  2. Under Objects --> Data, locate and click on the Mail Room.
  3. Click on your desired spot on the floor plan to drop the Mail Room point of interest.
  4. Once the Mail Room is dropped, you can rename the room and add any additional information.
  5. Once a Mail Room is added to your map, you will be able to start using Parcel Management.

How to access Parcel Management from the Home Screen

Parcel management is accessed on the mobile interface by selecting the hamburger menu at the top of the home page. 

Configuring Parcel Management settings

When first accessing Parcel Management, the settings must be configured. Once in Parcel Management, select the settings gear on the top right of the Parcel Management screen. The following settings should be addressed:

  • Current Active Mail Room: The Parcel Management is associated with the Mail Room Point of Interest within an environment. Multiple parcel managers may exist within an environment so the selection will be based on that occupant's location, but it can also be changed at any time based on the package receiving location.
  • New Parcel Defaults: The default carrier may be selected from a drop-down menu, otherwise, Postal Service is set as the environment default.
  • Notifications: Select/de-select options for email and/or SMS notifications for occupants receiving packages.
