What triggers does EasyRoutes provide in Zapier?

Zapier supports triggers like “Route Updated” and “Stop Status Updated” from EasyRoutes. See: Zapier Guide

How are same-day changes handled?

Add or remove stops on existing routes, then re‑optimize to refresh ETAs and send updates to the driver app. Changes can be made anytime during the day.

See: Add orders/stops · Re‑optimize routes

Will drivers get notified when assigned a route?

Yes. Assigned drivers receive a push notification when a route is dispatched to them, linking straight into the route in the EasyRoutes Delivery Driver mobile app.

See: Dispatch Notifications

How do I change my plan?

You can change your plan at any time in your EasyRoutes settings by following the instructions in this EasyRoutes help article. Any active drivers you have on your current plan will also be changed to the new plan's monthly price.

See: Change your plan · Prorated plan changes

Can I make proof of delivery required?

Yes. Require photos, e‑signature, and or a driver note individually before a stop can be marked Delivered or Attempted in the driver app.

See: Mandatory PoD

Does EasyRoutes offer training?

Yes. We provide step‑by‑step help docs, videos, and email support during business hours; Enterprise receives priority onboarding and dedicated support.

See: Getting Started · Support Portal

Can proof of delivery be exported for records?

Yes. Export routes/stops to CSV to get timestamps and URLs to proof items for archiving or analysis. Pair with Analytics for summary trends.

See: Export Proof of Delivery · Export routes/stops

What triggers does EasyRoutes provide in Zapier?

Zapier supports triggers like “Route Updated” and “Stop Status Updated” from EasyRoutes. See: Zapier Guide

Do SMS usage fees, prorated monthly subscriptions, and driver seats function the same way on both platforms?

Yes. SMS usage rates and monthly plan tiers are consistent between EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web (the Free tier is Shopify-only). Both use the same driver-seat model: you pay only for active seats and can toggle them on/off as staffing changes, with automatic proration for plan and seat adjustments.

See: SMS pricing · Pricing · Proration

Can I import orders into EasyRoutes from spreadsheets?

Yes. Import orders by CSV in Shopify or Web, including item‑level quantities and weights for capacity planning.

See: CSV Import

Can drivers upload proof from their phone gallery?

Yes. If enabled in Driver Settings, drivers can upload photos from the device gallery — handy for low‑connectivity deliveries — then the app syncs them when online.

See: Uploading from Gallery

Can I duplicate a route for future use?

Yes. Copy an existing route so you can reuse its stops and settings, adjust the schedule/driver, and re‑optimize for use on subsequent delivery days.

See: Edit Routes

Can I export my routes for reporting or analysis?

Yes. Export route and stop data — including links to proof of delivery — to CSV for reconciliation or further analysis with external tools.

See: Export routes/stops

Can I track driver performance?

Yes. Delivery Analytics reports completion rates, average delivery times, and success rates; filter by driver or date and export to CSV.

See: Analytics

Can I use Workflows with Xero invoices?

Yes. Imported or synced Xero invoices can trigger Workflows in EasyRoutes. See: Workflows Overview

Can I auto-dispatch routes?

Yes. If a scheduled start time is set, routes can be auto‑assigned and dispatched to the selected driver when created.

See: Auto‑Dispatch

How much do SMS messages cost?

SMS messaging rates are determined by the country of the recipient, and are billed on a per-segment basis.

See: SMS pricing · Usage balance & auto-top-up

Are there any differences in the customer experience between products?

Customers get the same experience on both: branded tracking pages with ETAs, real-time updates, and proof-of-delivery receipts (photos, e-signature, notes, GPS). With Shopify, you can also use Shopify’s built-in email/SMS templates; on Web, you’ll use EasyRoutes’ customizable notifications. Either way, you control timing, content, and branding for each status.

See: Tracking pages · Delivery notifications · Proof of Delivery

Can I track multiple routes at once?

Yes. Open a Route Group to view multiple live driver locations and statuses on one screen; each driver pin is colour‑coded by route.

See: Real-Time Driver Location Tracking · Route Groups

Can I share proof of delivery via tracking links?

Yes. You can show proof of delivery (photos, e‑signature confirmation, and driver notes) on customer tracking pages for delivered or attempted stops. Enable this from EasyRoutes' Order Tracking settings.

See: Proof of Delivery · Order Tracking Pages

Does EasyRoutes handle multiple depots?

Yes. Set specific start/end locations per route to represent different depots or driver home bases and plan accordingly.

See: Multiple locations/warehouses

How does EasyRoutes work with orders without an address?

EasyRoutes flags any orders that are missing a shipping address so you can add or correct the address before routing. For pickup orders, use your store or pickup location as the address.

See: My order does not have a shipping address

Does EasyRoutes add tracking links to Shopify orders automatically?

Yes. When you fulfill via EasyRoutes, we attach a tracking link to the Shopify order’s fulfillment so customers can follow their order's status online.

See: Tracking Pages & Links

How do I import Xero invoices into EasyRoutes?

Export invoices from Xero as a CSV, then upload them into EasyRoutes. See: Xero Import Guide

Can I reverse the order of stops in a route?

Yes. Use the route’s actions menu to reverse the stop sequence, then save to recalculate ETAs.

See: Reverse a route

Can I route imported orders alongside Shopify orders?

Yes. Import external orders via CSV, API, or Zapier, or add custom stops manually. These orders can then be planned together alongside any Shopify orders in one route.

See: Adding Custom Stops
