Field Controls

Custom fields for tracking numbers, PO references, Incoterms, and delivery instructions with validation to prevent missing or malformed shipping data before send.

In-app Signing

Touch or stylus signatures captured directly on the iPhone, with signer authentication options and signature placement controls for legal completeness.

Integrations: connect invoices to Google, CRM, and Dropbox

Connecting invoice creation to cloud tools and business systems reduces retyping and keeps shipping data synchronized across platforms.

Google Workspace

Push invoice PDFs to Google Drive, populate templates with Sheets data, and use Google Contacts to autofill recipient information so invoices and shipping records remain searchable and backed up in the same place your team uses daily.

CRM systems

Link customer records and order history to invoice fields, update billing statuses in the CRM automatically after signature, and pull saved shipping preferences to reduce manual entry and errors when preparing shipments.

Dropbox

Save signed invoices to a designated Dropbox folder, maintain folder-level retention policies, and provide carriers or accounting teams with shared access to completed shipping documentation for reconciliation.

Carrier APIs

Transmit invoice and shipment metadata to carrier platforms for label generation and tracking, reducing duplicate entry and accelerating pickup scheduling from the iPhone.

Sending and signing: web, mobile app, and in‑person flows

Different transmission and signing modes let teams finalize shipping invoices where it makes sense: remotely, on device, or in person at pickup.

  • Remote signing: Email or SMS link to external signers.
  • In‑app signing: Sign directly on the iPhone screen.
  • Embedded web: Open a browser signing experience from carrier portals.
  • In‑person kiosk: Offline capture with later sync.
