How does EasyRoutes optimize delivery 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

How does EasyRoutes work with Shopify fulfillments?

When you update stop statuses in EasyRoutes (Ready/Out for Delivery, Delivered, Attempted), we create or update Shopify fulfillments and attach the tracking link; notifications follow your settings configuration.

See: Items & Fulfillments

Can I change label sizes?

Yes. Set label size (e.g., 4×6 thermal or A4/Letter) and font scale in EasyRoutes Settings → Packing Slips & Labels, then fine‑tune using your printer’s paper and scale settings.
