📦 What This Article Covers

Once you’ve set up Package Delivery for your workspace, receptionists can easily manage incoming deliveries and ensure recipients are notified and accountable for pick-up.

This guide walks through the full process of handling a package—from arrival to user confirmation.


🛎️ Step 1: Log the Package on Mobile

Receptionists can log a package directly from the mobile app.

  1. Open the Gable app on your phone

  2. Click Profile

  3. Tap Package Delivery

  4. Select New Delivery

From there, upload a photo of the package label. Gable will scan the image and automatically fill in key details, when possible. Then, review or manually enter the following:

  • Recipient (select from the dropdown)

  • Delivery Area (where the package will be stored or picked up)

  • Carrier Name

  • Notes (e.g., “Fragile” or “Delivered to back desk”)

📷 Tip: Uploading a clear label photo helps Gable auto-detect the recipient and carrier faster.


🔔 Step 2: Recipient Gets Notified

Once the package is submitted, the recipient will receive:

  • 📧 An email notification

  • 💬 A Slack message (if connected)

These messages include the delivery location, optional notes, and a button to confirm once picked up.


✅ Step 3: Mark as Picked Up

When the user picks up the package, they can confirm via:

  • The Slack message or email link, or

  • A receptionist can mark it manually in the app


📋 View & Manage All Deliveries

Receptionists can also view all logged packages:

  • Pending Pickup – still awaiting recipient action

  • Picked Up – already confirmed by the user

They can take additional actions:

  • Edit package details

  • Mark as picked up

  • Change status back to pending

  • Delete (if needed)


💡 Tips for Smooth Delivery Tracking

  • 📍 Always specify the delivery area clearly

  • 🧾 Take clear photos of labels to assist with recognition
