Orders without a delivery date or time window are still fully routable — EasyRoutes simply optimizes them for the shortest, most efficient path instead of constraining them to a window. You can mix dated and undated orders on the same route: those with windows are sequenced to honor them, while the rest fill the gaps. Use Order Filters to include or exclude undated orders, and add a window manually to any stop when you need one. This applies to both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.

Yes. You can operate from several depots in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web. For each route, define the start and end locations (a store, local warehouse, or driver’s home base). Filter orders by zone or location tags, build multiple routes, and monitor all drivers together via Route Groups. Printed documents and ETAs reflect different depot travel times automatically.
No, you don’t need to be a developer to take advantage of Workflows. The Workflows feature is designed to be accessible to non-technical users by using a visual, menu-based interface. You simply select a scheduling frequency, define any conditions (like “only include orders tagged Local Delivery”), and choose an action (for example, “create and dispatch a route”).
This no-code design makes Workflows similar to popular automation tools like Zapier or Shopify Flow, where anyone can build powerful automations just by clicking and selecting from available options. That said, more advanced users can extend Workflows with APIs or webhooks to create complex, custom integrations, giving both beginners and power users maximum flexibility.

Yes. You can try any plan — including Premium features like real‑time driver tracking and notifications — for 14 days at no cost. Trials are available on both products (Shopify and Web). During the trial you can invite drivers, dispatch routes, and send tracking/PoD to validate the full workflow before choosing a tier and seat count.
Yes. On Premium/Enterprise plans, you can send SMS notifications for key delivery events (e.g., Ready for Delivery, Out for Delivery, Driver is X stops away, Delivered, Missed Delivery, and optionally Scheduled/Rescheduled). Messages are billed per segment based on the recipient’s country. Customize content and variables in the template editor, and preview with example data before enabling. Pair SMS with email and customer tracking links for full visibility.
Yes. Drivers can add photos and notes for attempts (e.g., no answer, inaccessible). You can make PoD mandatory for Attempted stops, so drivers document the situation before moving on. Attempt proof appears with the stop’s history for admins and, if enabled, on customer tracking pages/notifications to explain what happened.
See: Proof of Delivery
Yes. To repeat a regular run, open the route and use the actions menu to duplicate/copy it, then set a new date/time, driver, and any updated options. Re‑optimize to account for traffic windows or new constraints. You can also copy only a subset of stops by selecting them and sending them to a new route. This approach works in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
See: How to Edit Routes
Yes. Proof of delivery (PoD) captured in the driver app — photos, signature confirmation, and driver notes — is attached to the stop and can be surfaced on the customer’s tracking page. Enable PoD display in EasyRoutes Settings → Order tracking, and use notifications to share links automatically when a stop is delivered or attempted. PoD is also visible to admins on the route and order records for auditing and support.
Yes. EasyRoutes supports BigCommerce orders in several ways. You can export orders from BigCommerce and import them into EasyRoutes via CSV, or use Zapier and our API for real-time automation. This lets you start quickly with spreadsheet imports and grow into fully automated workflows as your delivery operation scales.
Yes. You can generate packing slips for each stop from the route’s Print menu. Choose Packing slips to produce slips in route order, then print or save as PDF for digital handoff. Customize content (logo, variables, formatting) from EasyRoutes Settings → Packing Slips & Labels.
EasyRoutes for Shopify: Use the built-in Print Preview, or send orders to Shopify’s Order Printer/Order Printer Pro for custom templates (Order Printer Pro supports route order).
EasyRoutes for Web: Use the same Print Preview and Settings controls directly in the web app.
Yes. From any route, use the checkboxes to select one or more stops, then click the bulk actions bar and choose Send to another route. You can also open a Route Group and drag stops from one route to another within the group. After moving, click Save and (optionally) Re‑optimize to update the stop order and ETAs. This workflow works the same in EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
Use this to balance workloads mid‑day, handle late additions, or consolidate leftovers onto a cleanup route.
EasyRoutes helps protect perishable and temperature-sensitive goods by keeping product moving and time on the road to a minimum. Cap each route with Max route duration and Max stops per route so no run exceeds your safe window, assign delivery time windows to fragile stops, and let optimization sequence and split orders across drivers for faster dispatch. This works the same in EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.

Yes. In both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web you can enforce a start action. When a driver taps Start Delivery in the mobile app, EasyRoutes records the route start time and begins live location updates. This prevents drivers from completing stops out of context and ensures analytics include drive time from the route's start location. If a route must be paused, drivers can resume later to continue tracking.
Dispatchers manage routes from the browser interface. On Shopify, open the Shopify mobile app and launch EasyRoutes to view routes, assign drivers, and monitor progress from supported mobile devices. For EasyRoutes for Web, sign in from your phone’s browser for a responsive experience. Drivers should use the dedicated EasyRoutes Delivery Driver app for turn‑by‑turn and proof of delivery.
Workflows are closely integrated with EasyRoutes’ existing notification and dispatch systems. This means you can set up a Workflow that not only creates a route but also automatically assigns it to a driver and triggers delivery notifications to customers at the right moments. For example, you could design a Workflow that dispatches a route to a driver as soon as it’s created, ensuring they receive a push notification in the EasyRoutes Delivery Driver app. As soon as the driver starts their route, EasyRoutes can send customers an email or SMS letting them know their delivery is on the way. This seamless integration ensures your team doesn’t need to remember to click multiple buttons — communication and route management just happen automatically.
EasyRoutes factors expected traffic conditions into its route optimization and ETA calculations, using live map and traffic data to sequence stops and estimate arrival times. As conditions or your stops change, you can re-optimize at any time and EasyRoutes recalculates the most efficient order. This works alongside options like time windows, toll avoidance, and stop priorities. Available in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
See: Route Options
Yes. BigCommerce orders can be routed alongside orders from Shopify, WooCommerce, Squarespace, or other platforms. You can import or sync all orders into one EasyRoutes account, then generate optimized routes across them. This helps centralize multi-platform delivery operations. See: BigCommerce Integration
Yes. EasyRoutes supports multiple label sizes. Pick a base size and text scale in EasyRoutes Settings → Packing Slips & Labels, then confirm your printer uses the matching paper (e.g., 4×6) with an appropriate print scale.
Yes. The EasyRoutes Routes API accepts imported stops (customer details, address, items, notes) so you can bring orders from non‑Shopify sources into EasyRoutes. After importing, you can create new routes, add the stops to existing routes, assign drivers, and dispatch. This works for both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web and complements CSV import when you need automation.
Delivery Analytics provides a consolidated view of your operations across both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web. Key metrics include total stops and routes, completion rate, attempted/missed deliveries, average delivery time, and per‑driver performance summaries. Use it to compare activity over time, spot bottlenecks, and validate operational changes.
You can filter by time period and specific drivers to focus on a team or individual, then export results to CSV for reporting. For event‑level detail (e.g., when a stop changed status), open the route’s Activity Feed. Analytics refreshes as new delivery events are recorded, so the dashboard stays current throughout the day.
Yes. If you use Shopify’s native notifications, you can insert proof image URLs into the Delivered or Missed Delivery templates so customers see photo links in those emails. This is optional — EasyRoutes notifications can also include tracking links that show PoD on the hosted tracking page. Choose the path that best matches your communication setup.

Yes. With Premium or Enterprise plans, turn on live tracking from EasyRoutes Settings → Driver settings. You’ll see a live GPS pin, breadcrumb path, current/next stop, and real‑time status updates on each route’s Tracking tab. Ensure drivers grant Always/Precise location permissions in the Delivery Driver app. Route Groups let you monitor multiple drivers at once.
Yes. EasyRoutes reads Shopify Local Delivery details (including delivery instructions from checkout) and adds them to the stop for drivers. If you maintain Pickup orders and want them represented on a route — for example, to stage curbside handoff or transfer to another location — you can include them with your store or pickup address so the task appears in sequence and on printed documents.
