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 achieve real-time updates, you can set up Zapier workflows or use the EasyRoutes API. For example, if an order’s address changes in WooCommerce, Zapier or a custom API connection can automatically push that update into EasyRoutes, ensuring drivers always have the latest information.
See: Zapier Guide
To import Squarespace orders, go to your Squarespace dashboard, navigate to “Orders,” and click the “Download CSV” button. Make sure only “Pending” orders are selected for export. Once downloaded, upload the CSV file into EasyRoutes via the “Import new CSV” option. Orders will appear as pins on the EasyRoutes map, ready for optimized route planning. This simple process makes it easy to bring Squarespace order data into your delivery workflow.
Yes. You can integrate EasyRoutes with ERPs, CRMs, WMS, and custom apps using our API and webhooks. Typical use cases include importing stops from non‑Shopify channels, syncing delivery status and proof‑of‑delivery back to your system of record, and powering external analytics collection. The same platform supports both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
Yes. The EasyRoutes Delivery Driver mobile app supports complete proof of delivery: capture multiple photos, obtain a customer e‑signature, and add notes (e.g., where the parcel was left). PoD is stored with the stop and visible to admins; if you enable PoD on tracking pages, customers can view it as well. PoD uploads immediately when a driver has an active internet connection, and will sync when re-connected if captured while offline.
See: Proof of Delivery
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.
You can focus the Activity Feed by scope: the Dashboard feed shows every route and stop event across your account, while opening a specific route’s (or Route Group’s) feed narrows it to just that route or group. Entries are listed chronologically, and each can be expanded for details or clicked to jump straight to the related route or stop. Activity data can also be exported for record-keeping. Available in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
See: Activity Feed
For extended-handling stops, increase the Time per stop or the individual stop's service time so ETAs and Max route duration account for the extra work. For two-person deliveries, note that a route is assigned to a single driver account, so you'd staff that route's vehicle with a crew operationally rather than assigning two driver logins to one route.
Driver Tasks can capture crew-specific steps at the stop. Works in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
See: Route Options · Driver Tasks
No. Barcode scanning uses the camera on your driver’s existing iOS or Android device, so there’s no need to buy dedicated scanners or hardware. Drivers scan directly from the EasyRoutes Delivery Driver app, with a built-in flash option for low light and a manual-entry fallback if a code won’t read. It supports common linear formats (UPC, EAN, Code 128, and more) and 2D codes like QR and Data Matrix. Available in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
See: Barcode scanning
Yes. Mark COD orders and include collection instructions in stop notes. Drivers can record payment received using notes and attach custom notes containing any COD amounts collected. Back at the office, export routes/stops to reconcile COD activity. This workflow is supported across EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
See: Cash on Delivery
EasyRoutes maintains a persistent log of account activity so admins have an authoritative record of delivery events over time. The Activity Feed retains entries for the lifetime of your account unless data is explicitly deleted (e.g., via route removal or a data‑deletion request). When you need a file for records or audits, pair the feed with route/stop CSV exports that include timestamps and proof‑of‑delivery links. This applies to both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
See: Activity Feed · Export routes/stops
Yes. Use EasyRoutes webhooks as Zap triggers to connect delivery events to apps like Google Sheets, Slack, Gmail, Twilio, HubSpot, and more. Common automations include updating a shared delivery log, notifying customer service when an attempt fails, or sending a custom message when proof of delivery posts. Zapier is supported for both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
Yes. Both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web can surface proof of delivery (PoD) to customers. Enable PoD display on tracking pages and decide which delivery events should send links via email/SMS. When a driver completes a stop, PoD is attached to that stop and becomes available to customers according to your settings. Admins always see PoD in route and stop details for auditing or future reference.
Yes. The EasyRoutes Delivery Driver app runs on both phones and tablets — it’s available for iOS (including iPad) and Android devices. The interface is optimized for a phone in the vehicle, but it works on larger tablet screens too. Just install it from the App Store or Google Play and sign in with the driver’s phone number. The same app serves drivers on both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
Yes. The EasyRoutes Routes API accepts imported orders/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.
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.

Workflows in EasyRoutes are powerful automation tools that let you design and run delivery management processes without needing to handle every step manually. Think of them as “if-this-then-that” rules that connect your orders, routes, and driver dispatching into a seamless flow. Instead of relying on a dispatcher to constantly create routes, select orders, or assign drivers, Workflows can do these repetitive tasks for you automatically.
For example, you could create a Workflow that listens for new Shopify orders tagged as “Local Delivery” and automatically builds a route every morning at 9 AM, adds matching orders to the route, optimizes route stops, and assigns it to a specific driver. By reducing manual intervention, Workflows make your operations more consistent, scalable, and error-proof.
See: Workflows Overview
Yes. The Time per stop route option lets you set how many minutes a driver spends at each stop — parking, walking, and handing off — so routes reflect real service time, not just drive time. Set it when creating a route, and it's applied to every stop on that route.
You can also fine-tune the service time on an individual stop from its Edit stop page when a particular delivery needs longer. Works in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
CSV imports are manual, but Zapier and the EasyRoutes API let you automate the process. With Zapier, new Xero invoices can be sent directly to EasyRoutes as soon as they’re created. With the API, developers can build real-time integrations that sync orders and updates automatically, keeping your delivery pipeline fully up to date.
By integrating Xero with EasyRoutes, you unlock a complete last-mile delivery toolkit: multi-stop route optimization, real-time driver tracking, branded notifications, proof of delivery (photos, signatures, notes), and analytics. This makes it easy to turn Xero invoices into efficient deliveries while providing customers with professional updates and proof of completion.

EasyRoutes for Shopify is seamlessly integrated into merchants’ Shopify Admin, and can be accessed directly from the navigation menu or search bar after logging into Shopify. Permissions to create, edit, and dispatch delivery routes are limited to the same individuals who have a Shopify user account with full login access to a store’s Shopify Admin.
EasyRoutes for Web uses a standalone web browser-based login, with no Shopify account required to sign up, import your orders, and access route planning tools. With EasyRoutes for Web, route planning administrators can invite additional users to their organization’s account who can then access select EasyRoutes functionality.

API access uses tokens you create in your EasyRoutes account. Follow the Getting Started guide to generate a token, store it securely, and add it to requests from your server or integration platform. Tokens work the same way for both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web. Rotate credentials periodically and avoid embedding them in client‑side code.

The cutoff, lead-time, and blackout-date rules you configure live inside your date picker app and control what customers can select at checkout — EasyRoutes doesn't import those rules. What it does read is the resulting delivery date and time window the app writes onto each order, which it then uses for filtering and routing. So the customer-facing scheduling limits stay with your picker, while EasyRoutes plans around the dates and windows they produce. This applies to both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.

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.

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.
