Overview
Manifest statuses are designed to give visibility on where a manifest is in the process of transportation from stores to e-commerce.
This guide walks through how transportation teams can use Lister and Link to update manifests to “In Transit” or “Missing” and see where shipments are in the supply chain.

Lister and Link Overview
Lister and Link empower stores and e-commerce teams to sell products online. Transportation teams can use either Lister (the website) or Link (the iOS app) to update store and e-commerce teams that the products are on the way to e-commerce.
How to Log In to Lister and Link
After an e-commerce admin has created a user account for a driver, they can log in to Lister by entering their username and password on app.uprightlabs.com. The same username and password can be used to log in to Link, the iOS companion app to Lister.

Manifest Statuses
A manifest is a digital list of items from a store being sent to e-commerce to sell online. Each manifest has a status that represents where it is in the supply chain as it progresses from stores to being listed online.
Created: Represents a manifest that has been started but may not be ready for transfer to e-commerce
Ready for Pickup: Used by store teams to indicate that the manifest is ready to be shipped to e-commerce for processing
In Transit: Indicates the manifest has been collected by the transportation team and is on the way to e-commerce
Received: Used by e-commerce teams to indicate that the manifest has arrived at the facility
Missing: If a manifest can’t be found, stores, drivers, or e-commerce can mark the manifest as missing to help with loss prevention investigations
Partially Processed: A manifest received by e-commerce and being inspected
Processed: A manifest that has been fully inspected by e-commerce
Options for Scanning Manifests
When a store is ready to transfer manifests to e-commerce, they update the status to “Ready for Pickup” and can print either a manifest sheet, manifest barcode, or manifest scan form. These can be scanned with an iOS device to change manifest statuses to “In Transit.”
Manifest Sheets
Manifest sheets are a printed list of every item in a container being transferred to e-commerce
The top right corner of the manifest sheet has a Manifest barcode that transportation teams can scan to update the status of the manifest to “In Transit”
Manifest Barcodes
Stores with a label printer can print just the manifest barcode from the manifest sheet on a 1-1/8" x 3-1/2" label
Manifest Scan Forms
Manifest scan sheets are printed sheets that transportation teams can use to bulk update the status of multiple manifests from "Ready for Pickup" to "In Transit"
The top of a manifest scan form has a “Quick Scan” barcode that controls the status of all related manifests on the printout

How to Update Manifests to “In Transit” Using Link

Scanning (No Bluetooth Scanner):
Log in to the Link iOS app
Tap “Pick Up Manifests” to open the manifest scanner
Tap the blue “Scan icon” to open the camera app
