For firms

Couriers (firm view)

Invite OBCs, manage pending connections, and edit courier records.

The Couriers tab

Lists every courier connected to your firm. Each row links to that courier's profile, schedule, and edit form.

Inviting a courier

  1. Go to Couriers → New.
  2. Enter the courier's name + email.
  3. Click Send invite.

An email goes out via OBC Calendar to that address with a one-click Accept link. When they click it:

  • If they have an OBC Calendar account already, the connection appears in their Connections tab as Pending Acceptance.
  • If they don't, they're routed to /signup; once they sign up with the same email, the connection is auto-linked.

Pending connections

Until the courier clicks Accept (or signs up), the connection sits in Couriers → Pending connections. From there you can:

  • Resend the invite if the original email got buried.
  • Cancel the invite if you no longer need it.

Once accepted, the courier moves to the main Couriers list.

Editing a courier

Click any name in the Couriers list. The edit form lets you:

  • Rename the courier (this is the name shown across your firm — they see their own name separately).
  • Update the email (re-invites if not yet accepted).
  • Add a per-courier nickname (the OBC sees this when interacting with your firm — useful when one courier works under multiple business names).

The 50-OBC limit

The Firm Standard tier (and the Firm Free trial) caps at 50 connected OBCs. Adding the 51st is blocked at the server — the "Send invite" form returns a clear error. If you're hitting the cap, talk to us about expanding it.

Disconnecting

Both sides can disconnect at any time. The firm initiates from the courier's profile page; the OBC initiates from their Connections tab. Disconnecting hides the relationship but keeps historical jobs visible for record-keeping.
