What this guide covers

Know which external CRM events update module records. The instructions below follow the supplied module’s controller, form and model rules, including server-side validation and downstream effects.

Exact step-by-step process

  1. Open Core CRM event → Courier hook.
  2. Review the source record and choose the supported action.
  3. Save or submit once, then reopen the record and verify the result.

Fields, choices and supported possibilities

after_client_addedSync core customer into Courier.
after_client_updatedRefresh linked courier customer.
invoice_status_changedReconcile linked job payment status.
after_payment_addedRecord/reconcile payment against linked job.
after_cron_runRun module automation.

Code-backed validations and workflow rules

  • Use the supported screen and permission; do not bypass validation or edit database records directly.

Expected result and verification

  • The source record, status/history and any downstream notification, provider, POD or finance record should agree after the action.

Security, audit and operational checks

  • Use the exact record and least-privilege role before changing any state.
  • Verify the saved record after every action; a browser message alone is not evidence that every downstream step completed.
  • Use protected document and image routes rather than exposing server filesystem paths.
  • Keep customer, driver, provider, financial and credential data within the authorised workflow.
  • For provider, finance, employment, transport and compliance decisions, follow the organisation’s authorised professional process.
Do not bypass the code flowDo not force database values, invent a status, mark a job completed without signed POD evidence, or expose encrypted credentials to make a screen appear successful.
