Yes. When location capture is enabled, EasyRoutes records the driver’s GPS location and a timestamp alongside each proof-of-delivery entry — photos, e-signature, notes, and barcode scans — so every completed stop has a location and time on record. You can review these details on the route’s stop entries and include driver location when exporting stop data for your files. Available in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
Invite drivers from the Drivers & Vehicles tab, then assign a driver seat to activate them. Deactivate drivers anytime to free a seat without deleting their profile or history. You can switch which people occupy seats as staffing changes — ideal for seasonal or on-call drivers. These controls are available in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
Yes. Use EasyRoutes Workflows to auto‑create routes daily, weekly, or monthly from saved filters or route templates. For fixed runs, copy an existing route (or selected stops) to a new date, then re‑optimize for current constraints. These options are available in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web and pair well with auto‑dispatch for hands‑off mornings.
Yes. You can add breaks before optimization (by setting the planned break time) or after creating a route (by inserting a break and positioning it between stops). Breaks appear to drivers as a stop in the sequence, and when a break is included in a route, EasyRoutes will recalculate remaining ETAs and the overall route duration. This is useful for lunch windows, mandatory rest periods, or overnight pauses. For multi‑day itineraries, consider splitting different days into separate routes, or using an overnight strategy so customer ETAs align with actual delivery periods.
EasyRoutes builds efficient routes by combining your inputs (orders/stops and addresses) with constraints and preferences. It accounts for start and end locations, optional time windows, per‑stop service times, speed factors, and limits such as maximum duration, stops, items, or weight. You can create multiple routes at once, balance stops evenly, or optimize for the fewest routes that still meet your limits. After reviewing the map and stop list, drag‑and‑drop stops to make manual adjustments, then re‑optimize to apply changes.
See: Route Options · EasyRoutes 101: Route Optimization & Route Options
When no one is available, the driver documents the drop instead of collecting a signature: up to four photos of where the order was left, an optional note (e.g., "left behind the side gate"), and the GPS location and timestamp captured automatically. All of it is saved to the stop's proof-of-delivery record.
You can make a photo and/or note mandatory to mark the stop delivered, and display these items on the customer's tracking page for confidence. Available in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
To sign in, add the driver to your EasyRoutes account (Shopify or Web) with their phone number. The driver installs the app and enters that number; we send a one‑time SMS code to complete sign‑in. Routes assigned to that number appear automatically. If a driver changes phone numbers, update their driver profile so dispatch and permissions match.
See: How do I sign in or sign up for EasyRoutes Delivery Driver?
Yes. Most teams ramp using our self‑serve resources: the Getting Started guide, topic‑specific articles, and short videos embedded throughout the Help Center. If questions arise, contact us via email from inside the app or the Support Portal; we aim to respond the same business day. Customers on the Enterprise plan receive priority responses and can coordinate onboarding help prior to go‑live.
Importing Wix orders is easy. From your Wix dashboard, export orders as a CSV file, then log into EasyRoutes and upload the file via the “Import new CSV” option. EasyRoutes automatically maps order fields like name, address, and quantity to ensure your orders are routed correctly. Once imported, your orders appear as pins on the EasyRoutes map for route planning. See: Importing Orders from Wix
No. The Activity Feed is an internal operations log available to EasyRoutes admins and dispatchers. Drivers use the EasyRoutes Delivery Driver app to view assigned routes, update stop statuses, and capture proof of delivery; these events will appear in the Activity Feed for admins, but drivers do not access the account‑wide feed. This separation keeps internal data and audit trails restricted to management.
See: Activity Feed
Zapier allows you to capture delivery events from EasyRoutes and log them automatically into a Google Sheet, Excel file, or database. For example, every time a driver completes a stop, Zapier can write details like stop ID, timestamp, and delivery outcome into a row. This creates a live delivery log that’s perfect for reporting, auditing, or customer service.
Yes. EasyRoutes keeps your order list synchronized with Shopify so recent orders, edits, and fulfillment changes are available for routing without manual imports. If an expected order isn’t visible, confirm the Show orders from the last… window, and other filters on the Orders page, then refresh. You can also import non‑Shopify orders alongside synced Shopify orders when needed.
On your EasyRoutes Orders page, click Configure table columns (below your active Route Options) and enable the Delivery Date and Time Window columns. Once enabled, EasyRoutes parses these values from your date picker app so you can sort, filter, and build routes by delivery date and window. The same columns are available in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
By default, CSV imports are static snapshots. To enable real-time updates, you can set up a Zapier workflow that pushes new or updated Wix orders into EasyRoutes automatically. Alternatively, use the API to sync live changes such as address edits or cancellations, ensuring drivers always have up-to-date information.
See: Zapier Guide
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.
Workflows also respects conditions that are applied via EasyRoutes' order automation rules, giving route planners additional tools and controls for automatically applying time windows, delivery dates, driver tasks, or stop priority status based on matching order tags or attributes.
See: Conditional Workflows · Order Automation Rules
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. Enable automatic dispatch so newly created routes with a scheduled start time are assigned and sent to the chosen driver immediately — no extra clicks. Use this for recurring daily runs or integrations that create routes programmatically. You can still edit or un-dispatch a route before start time if plans change.
Keep product moving and time on the road low. Cap Max route duration and Max stops/items per route so no run exceeds your safe window, and let optimization split the overflow into extra routes. Use time windows and priority stops so the most temperature-sensitive orders are delivered first.
Pair the routing with physical cold-chain steps — insulated bags or coolers — and a required Driver Task to confirm handling. Works in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.

When exporting orders from Wix, ensure your CSV file contains one row per order line item so EasyRoutes can map details like product name and quantity correctly. Map columns such as name, street address, and phone number to the right EasyRoutes fields during import. This ensures clean, accurate order data for route creation.
See: Wix Import Guide
You don’t need to code to connect BigCommerce with EasyRoutes. Zapier provides an easy no-code path to automate order syncing. For teams that need more complex, real-time integrations, the EasyRoutes API allows developers to customize imports, fulfillments, and route triggers. This gives you flexibility to choose between no-code and developer-driven solutions.
See: API Getting Started
Zapier’s app directory includes thousands of CRMs, ERPs, and productivity tools. With EasyRoutes as the trigger, you can automatically update customer records in HubSpot when a delivery is completed, or sync invoice statuses in NetSuite when routes are dispatched. This ensures delivery data flows into the rest of your business systems seamlessly.
See: Zapier App Directory
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.
Yes. EasyRoutes allows you to build Workflows in a safe, draft environment where you can preview how they would behave without actually triggering live actions. This lets you confirm that your conditions and actions are working as expected before rolling them out to your team.
For example, you might test a Workflow that creates a route every morning at 8 AM by running it with sample orders first, so you can see how the route would look. Once you’re confident it works, you can enable it in production and have it run automatically every day. This ability to test Workflows helps prevent mistakes like dispatching routes too early or sending customers duplicate notifications. It also makes it easier to experiment with new automations before committing to them.
See: Testing Workflows
Yes. From any route you can dispatch to a specific driver, or share a route link that allows self‑assignment by your driver pool. Assigned drivers receive the route in the EasyRoutes Delivery Driver app (iOS/Android) with turn‑by‑turn directions via their preferred navigation app. For busy days, combine dispatch with Route Groups to release multiple routes at once and monitor progress on a single screen. This behaviour is consistent across EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
See: How do I dispatch / share routes? · Route Dispatch Links / Driver Self‑Assign
Yes. When you create multiple routes together, EasyRoutes groups them so you can monitor all active drivers in a single view. The Route Group page shows color‑coded pins, per‑route progress, and live stop updates. Use this view to coordinate dispatch, answer customer inquiries, and rebalance work if needed by moving stops between routes.
Yes. In Settings > Delivery Zones, tick the zones you no longer need and click Archive to remove them from your active list. Archived zones aren’t gone for good — use the Add filter control below the map to show Archived or All, then select and Unarchive any you want back. This keeps your active zone list tidy without losing past boundaries. Available in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
