Parcel management software for apartment buildings

Online shopping has turned many building offices into mail rooms. MYBOS Parcel Management gives your team a proper system for logging deliveries, telling residents and recording who collected what.

Parcel Management is a named MYBOS module, available on the web and in the BM App.

What does parcel management software do?

It records every delivery that arrives for residents, tells them it is there, and records who collected it and when.

Paper parcel logs work until there is a dispute. A resident says a parcel never arrived, or someone else picked it up, and the building has no photo, no signature and no clear time. A digital system gives you the proof.

What does MYBOS Parcel Management include?

Everything a front desk needs, from arrival to collection, on the web or in the app.

  • Fast logging by apartment, parcel type and storage location
  • Automatic notifications by email or SMS as soon as the parcel is saved
  • Photos taken at logging as a record of condition and receipt
  • Digital signatures captured at collection on a touchscreen or USB signature pad
  • Overdue reminders for uncollected parcels, with notifications you can resend
  • Barcode scanning as an optional add-on for faster logging and collection

How does a parcel move through MYBOS?

Four simple steps, all recorded.

  1. Parcel arrivesSelect the apartment, parcel type and storage location, add a photo and scan the barcode if you have the add-on.
  2. Resident is notifiedAn email or SMS goes out automatically when the parcel is saved.
  3. Resident collectsFind the parcel in Pending Collection and capture a signature.
  4. Record is keptThe parcel moves to the collected archive, searchable and exportable.

Why does a building need a parcel system?

Because parcels are now one of the biggest daily tasks at the front desk, and one of the most common sources of complaints.

A proper system saves staff time, cuts down on residents asking whether something has arrived and protects the building when a parcel goes missing. Residents can also see their parcels in the MYBOS resident app if the building manager switches the feature on.

“My favourite work mate. Fully featured and very efficient. A perfect job companion for a building manager.”

Parcel management questions, answered

How are residents told a parcel has arrived?

MYBOS sends an email or SMS automatically when the parcel is saved. Default notification settings mean staff do not have to choose them every time, and notifications can be resent if needed.

Can we capture a signature at collection?

Yes. MYBOS can capture a digital signature at collection using a touchscreen or a USB signature pad, so there is a clear record of who collected each parcel.

What happens to parcels that are not collected?

You can set automatic overdue reminders for uncollected parcels. The parcel stays in the Pending Collection list until it is collected, so nothing gets forgotten in the parcel room.

Can staff manage parcels from a phone?

Yes. Parcel Management has full functionality in the MYBOS BM App, so staff can log, manage and collect parcels on mobile as well as on the web portal.

Do we need a barcode scanner?

No, but it helps in busy buildings. A barcode scanner is available as an optional add-on to scan parcel IDs at logging and to find parcels quickly at collection.
