The following options are currently available:

Signature Options

If set to "Authority to Leave" and the recipient is unavailable the parcel will be left in a safe place at the premises. If no safe place is available a card will be left at the premises to advise the recipient to collect the parcel from a local post office.

If set to "Signature Required" the recipient of the parcel will need to sign for delivery. If the recipient is not available a card will be left at the premises to advise the recipient to collect the parcel from a local post office.

If set to "Authority to leave can be requested by receiver" the recipient of the parcel will need to sign for delivery unless they have authorised Australia Post to leave the parcel in a safe place.

Email Tracking Enabled

If set to "Enabled" customers will receive delivery updates from AusPost to their email address and/or mobile phone. For more information about delivery notifications see Australia Post's article at https://auspost.com.au/content/dam/auspost_corp/media/documents/tracking-notifications-for-parcel-post-and-express-post.pdf

Allow Partial Delivery

If set to Yes multiple packages in a consignment may be delivered separately.
