Frequently Asked Questions

Get quick answers to the most common questions about EasyRoutes—setup, routes, drivers, and more.

Does EasyRoutes support real-time updates for WooCommerce orders?

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

What are the main benefits of using EasyRoutes with Squarespace?

By connecting Squarespace to EasyRoutes, you get access to a full delivery management toolkit: optimized multi-stop routes, real-time driver tracking, branded notifications, proof of delivery (photos, notes, signatures), and delivery analytics. This transforms Squarespace from just an eCommerce storefront into a complete last-mile logistics solution. See: Squarespace Overview

What are the main benefits of using EasyRoutes with Xero?

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. See: Xero Integration

Can I combine Xero invoices with orders from other platforms?

Yes. EasyRoutes allows you to centralize deliveries across multiple platforms. You can import invoices from Xero alongside Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, or Squarespace orders, then optimize routes across all of them in one place. See: EasyRoutes for Xero

Does EasyRoutes support real-time updates for Xero invoices?

CSV exports are static, but Zapier or API integrations let you sync real-time updates. For example, if an invoice’s payment status or address changes in Xero, the update can flow directly into EasyRoutes, keeping your drivers informed with the most accurate data. See: Zapier Guide

Can EasyRoutes send notifications for Xero deliveries?

Yes. Once invoices are imported into EasyRoutes, customers linked to those invoices can receive branded notifications via email or SMS, complete with live tracking links. This improves delivery transparency and reduces customer inquiries. See: EasyRoutes for Xero

What fields should I map when importing from Xero?

During import, make sure CSV columns from Xero are mapped correctly: ContactName (first name), SAAddressLine1 (address), SARegion (province/state), SAPostalCode (postal code), SACountry (country), InvoiceNumber (order name), Quantity, and Description (item details). Proper mapping ensures invoices are imported as accurate delivery stops. See: Xero Import Guide

Can I use Workflows with Xero invoices?

Yes. Once Xero invoices are imported into EasyRoutes (via CSV, Zapier, or API), you can use them with EasyRoutes Workflows. For example, you could build a Workflow that automatically creates delivery routes every morning from all paid invoices and dispatches them to drivers. This saves time and ensures consistency. See: Workflows Overview

Do I need coding skills to connect Xero with EasyRoutes?

No technical background is needed if you use Zapier to connect Xero with EasyRoutes. Zapier provides a no-code way to set up automations like sending invoices into EasyRoutes for route creation. For advanced teams, the EasyRoutes API allows for custom integrations, syncing invoice updates, or linking to ERP/CRM systems. See: API Getting Started

Can EasyRoutes sync Xero orders automatically?

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. See: Zapier Integration Guide
