Are real-time updates offered for WooCommerce orders?

Yes, through Zapier or the EasyRoutes API. See: Zapier Guide

Can I save frequent delivery zones?

Yes. Draw custom delivery zones on the map to select orders in a specific geographical area, and reuse the same workflow whenever you plan routes for the same local area.

See: Delivery Zones

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

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.

See: Real-Time Driver Location Tracking · Activity Feed

Can I troubleshoot missing or inaccurate tracking data?

Yes. Confirm the route is started, location is set to Always/Precise, battery saver is off, and the app is up to date. If needed, reopen the app to resume tracking.

See: Real-Time Driver Location Tracking

Can EasyRoutes sync Xero orders automatically?

Yes, with Zapier or the EasyRoutes API. See: Zapier Guide

What data does Delivery Analytics provide?

Delivery Analytics shows totals and trends for stops and routes, including completed vs. missed deliveries, average delivery time, per‑driver performance, and route metrics over a chosen period.

See: Delivery Analytics

Can I deactivate a driver seat without removing the driver?

Yes. Deactivating frees the seat for someone else to occupy, while keeping the driver in your roster for easy re‑activation later.

See: Managing Seats

Can I export customer delivery data?

Yes. Export route/stop data to CSVs with customer details, timestamps, and links to proof of delivery for record‑keeping or analysis.

See: Exporting Data

Yes. Add scheduled driver breaks to new or existing route, and EasyRoutes will insert a break stop while updating downstream ETAs and total route time.

See: Driver Breaks

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

What data does Delivery Analytics provide?

Yes. Enable templates for Imported/Manual stops in EasyRoutes Customer Notifications settings, and include an email and or phone number on the stop.

See: Delivery Notifications

Can I change label sizes?

Is EasyRoutes multilingual?

Yes. Tracking pages and customer notifications can be customized in your preferred language; order data is shown in the language received from your system. The mobile driver app supports automatic English, French, Spanish, Dutch, and German translations.
