On the customer detail, you can add contacts.


These contacts can be given certain roles, which will be auto-prefilled when sending out certain e-mails from Qargo.

  • The roles available to link to a contact:
    ​Billing
    ​Operations

  • CMR/POD Processing
    ​Other

Billing

  • This is used as default for tasks that have been configured for sending out invoices.


    The role can be assigned while creating a customer contact or to an already existing contact as shown below(both on customer and subcontractor page)


Operations

  • This is used as default for tasks for sending out transport orders to the subcontractors.


    The role can be assigned while creating a customer contact or to an already existing contact as shown below(both on customer and subcontractor page)-(Same way as descirbed in the visuals under Billing)


CMR/POD Processing

  • Direct all CMR/POD-related communications to the right contact and email.

  • Task configured to send CMRs/PODs after upload or trip completion, will use the contact(s) with this role as email recipients

    • If no contact has this role designated, email may go to a fallback contact, like Billing (depending on configuration).


Other

  • This can be configured for any other e-mail tasks that will be added in the system


The role can be assigned while creating a customer contact or to an already existing contact as shown below(both on customer and subcontractor page)-(Same way as described in the visuals under Billing)

‼️ If a contact does not have a role, then it will not be able to be targeted by certain automated or manual contact tasks.



To locate which task is using which contact role, navigate to Configuration -> Tasks and locate the related task:


Below Task example indicates that the invoices will be sent to the contacts that have "Billing" assigned as a role:


The full overview of contacts and roles assigned can also be found under Customers > Contacts tab which will also allow you to make adjustments in the full overview page:
