Tip
If necessary, you can also add other rent objects requested by the customer during handover to a delivery protocol. To do so, click Add New Rent Object in the Functions FastTab in the protocol, then click the + button next to the relevant object to enter the desired quantity. You will be redirected to the preparation of the added object. How to carry out a preparation is described under Preparation. Now you can return to the handover and complete it as usual.
The handover of the delivery protocol is complete. Thanks to the real-time synchronization, the Delivery Status in the protocol card was set to Delivered in our rent solution. If you enabled postings during Mobile Rental setup, the protocol will also be posted automatically upon handover. Otherwise, this must be done manually in our rent solution. More information on this can be found in the documentation for Aptean Rental.
