What PoD can contain

  • Delivery photo evidence.
  • Signature capture where required.
  • Timestamped upload records associated with the order flow.

How PoD is used

  • Support uses PoD during incident and dispute review.
  • Operations uses PoD to verify handover completion status.

If PoD appears incomplete, report it with order ID and expected handover context.
