Yes. If a scheduled start time is set, routes can be auto‑assigned and dispatched to the selected driver when created.

See: Auto‑Dispatch

Select “Pending” orders when exporting to CSV. See: Squarespace Import Guide

How does EasyRoutes optimize my routes?

EasyRoutes optimizes deliveries using your selected orders, start & end locations, stop time intervals, time windows, and route limits. You can balance routes, respect capacities, and re‑optimize as plans change.

See: Route Options · EasyRoutes 101

Can proof of delivery be shared with customers?

See: Sharing Proof of Delivery · Order Tracking Pages

Is EasyRoutes good for same-day delivery?

Yes. Create routes in minutes, add last‑minute stops, and re‑optimize during the day. Dispatch instantly to drivers with live tracking and customer notifications.

See: Re‑optimize · Dispatch

What information can I see in real-time tracking as an admin?

The route’s Tracking tab shows live driver location, recent path, next/current stop, and real‑time stop status, completion times, and proof of delivery events.

Can I build multi-step Workflows with conditional logic?

Yes. Workflows can include multiple steps and conditions, such as only dispatching routes to certain drivers if the route exceeds a number of stops, or only adding particular stops if the corresponding order includes certain tags. There are no limits to how many Workflows route planners can create, offering maximum flexibility for businesses with varying delivery schedules.

See: Conditional Workflows

Can I combine BigCommerce orders with orders from other platforms?

Yes. EasyRoutes supports routing orders from multiple platforms together. See: BigCommerce Integration

Can I change when certain notifications are sent?

Yes. Choose which events trigger email/SMS — Ready, Out for Delivery, Driver is X Stops Away, Delivered, Missed Delivery — and optionally Scheduled/Rescheduled.

See: Delivery Notifications

Can I use the API to import external eCommerce orders?

Yes. Use the Routes API to import stops (orders) from any system that can send the required fields, then create or update routes with those stops.

See: API Import

Do I need coding skills to use Workflows?

No coding is required. EasyRoutes Workflows use a simple “if-this-then-that” style interface where you choose triggers and actions from a menu. This makes Workflows easy to set up without developer knowledge.

See: No-Code Automation

Can I re‑optimize a route after it’s created?

Yes. Re‑optimize at any time — after adding or removing stops, changing stop priorities, editing route options, or balancing loads. Drivers can also re-optimize routes delivered out of order, or re‑order stops if enabled from your EasyRoutes Settings.

See: Re‑optimize a route · Re‑ordering stops

Can drivers update order statuses from the app?

Yes. Drivers can mark stops as Out for Delivery, Delivered, or Attempted and attach proof of delivery from the mobile app.

See: Marking orders as Delivered

Does EasyRoutes work with wholesale orders?

Yes. Any Shopify order (including wholesale and/or B2B) can be added to routes as long as it contains a shipping address. You can also correct addresses - or add one to stops without - prior to routing.

See: Shopify Items & Fulfillments · Add a missing address

Can I test a Workflow before enabling it for my team?

Yes. You can create and save Workflows in a draft state, test them with sample data, and only enable them once you’re confident they work as intended.

See: Testing Workflows

Can EasyRoutes send notifications for Xero deliveries?

Yes. Customers can receive branded notifications and live tracking links. See: Xero Integration

Does EasyRoutes integrate with accounting software?

Indirectly, yes. Use CSV exports, the EasyRoutes API, or Zapier to push delivery data into your accounting system.

Does EasyRoutes offer training?

Yes. We provide step‑by‑step help docs, videos, and email support during business hours; Enterprise receives priority onboarding and dedicated support.

See: Getting Started · Support Portal

Can I balance stops evenly across several routes?

Yes. Enable Balance routes to distribute stops as evenly as possible across multiple routes/drivers while respecting other route constraints (like time windows, or item/weight limits).

See: Balance routes · How many routes?

How do driver seats work?

Driver seats are active licenses you assign to people in your driver roster. Activate a seat to let a driver receive routes in the EasyRoutes Delivery Driver app; deactivate a seat to pause access without deleting their profile. You can toggle seats anytime and only pay for the seats on your plan at that moment. Charges/credits are prorated automatically when you add or remove seats.

See: Manage driver seats · Activate/deactivate drivers

How does EasyRoutes optimize my delivery routes?

See: Route Options · EasyRoutes 101

Can I use EasyRoutes at multiple locations?

Yes. Manage deliveries for multiple depots/warehouses from one account. Create routes with different start/end locations and assign drivers per hub.
