Email and SMS editors include Preview with Example Data so you can confirm branding and variables before enabling. For live tests, try a draft order to yourself. **Q: Can multiple stores use a single EasyRoutes account?** A: Each EasyRoutes for Shopify install connects to a single Shopify store. To combine data, import stops via CSV/API/webhooks or use EasyRoutes for Web to plan with external sources. **Q: How does EasyRoutes optimize my routes?** A: EasyRoutes optimizes deliveries using your selected orders, start & end locations, stop time intervals, time windows, and route limits. You can balance routes, respect capacities, and re-optimize as plans change. **Q: Can I auto-dispatch routes?** A: Yes. If a scheduled start time is set, routes can be auto-assigned and dispatched to the selected driver when created. **Q: How quickly can I get started?** A: Most teams connect, fetch orders, and create their first optimized route in under an hour. Follow the suggestions in the Getting Started guide found in the EasyRoutes support portal to reach your "aha" moment fast. **Q: Can multiple stores connect to one EasyRoutes account?** A: Each EasyRoutes for Shopify install connects to a single Shopify store.

Select stops on a route and choose Send to another route , or drag between routes on a Route Group. Re-optimize after moving to refresh ETAs. **Q: Can I factor driver breaks into my routes?** A: 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. **Q: Can I balance stops evenly across several routes?** A: Yes. Enable Balance routes to distribute stops as evenly as possible across multiple routes/drivers while respecting other route constraints (like time windows, or item/weight limits). **Q: Can routes be re-optimized after creation?** A: 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. **Q: How does EasyRoutes work with orders without an address?** A: 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. **Q: How do I manage my drivers?** A: You can add, remove, and switch drivers in a way that is flexible with your business at anytime from within EasyRoutes. If you need more drivers, then you'll need to add more driver seats on your plan. **Q: Can I import orders into EasyRoutes from spreadsheets?** A: Yes. Import orders by CSV in Shopify or Web, including item-level quantities and weights for capacity planning. **Q: Can I use the API to import eCommerce platform orders?** A: Yes.

You can show proof of delivery items (photos, e-signature timestamp, and driver notes) on customer tracking pages and include links in email/SMS notifications. Configure this from your EasyRoutes Settings, in the Order Tracking and Customer Notifications tabs. **Q: Does EasyRoutes offer SMS delivery notifications?** A: Yes. EasyRoutes Premium and Enterprise plans support branded SMS notifications with usage-based pricing per message segment.

Instead of manually creating routes, adding orders, and assigning drivers, Workflows can take care of it for you. **Q: What types of actions can I automate with Workflows?** A: You can automate tasks such as creating routes from new orders, applying filters to narrow the orders applying to each route, dispatching routes to drivers, sending delivery notifications, and updating Shopify order statuses. **Q: Do Workflows work with both Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web?** A: Yes. Workflows are available across both platforms. In Shopify, they integrate tightly with your store's orders and fulfillments (both Shopify-native and custom/imported stops), while on EasyRoutes for Web, they connect with your imported, custom, or API-generated orders. **Q: Can I test a Workflow before enabling it for my team?** A: Yes. You can create and save Workflows in a draft state, test them with sample data, and only enable them once you're confident they work as intended. **Q: Are Workflows included in all EasyRoutes plans, or only Premium?** A: Workflows are available on EasyRoutes Premium and Enterprise plans. These plans unlock automation, advanced customization, and scaling features designed for larger delivery operations. **Q: Can I reprint packing slips or labels?** A: Yes. Reopen any route and use Print to reprint packing slips or labels, or re-export to PDF. If a route was archived, simply unarchive it first. **Q: Can I change label sizes?** A: Yes. Set label size (e.g., 4x6 thermal or A4/Letter) and font scale in EasyRoutes Settings -> Packing Slips & Labels , then fine-tune using your printer's paper and scale settings. **Q: Can I export packing slip data instead of printing?** A: Yes. Use the same Print flow and choose your OS/browser's Save as PDF , or generate a route PDF for digital sharing. **Q: Can I print packing slips in bulk?** A: Yes. Bulk print all packing slips for a route in one action: open the route, click Print , check Packing slips , and print or download directly. **Q: Can I customize my packing slips?** A: Yes. Add your logo, choose which order fields appear, and adjust layout and font sizing from EasyRoutes Settings -> Packing Slips & Labels . Options are available in both Shopify and Web. **Q: What is the Activity Feed in EasyRoutes?** A: The Activity Feed is a real-time, account-wide log of route, stop, and driver events (e.g., dispatches, status changes, proof of delivery). **Q: Is the Activity Feed visible to drivers?** A: No. The feed is visible to admin/dispatcher roles in the web app; drivers see only their assigned routes in the mobile app. **Q: Can I use the Activity Feed for compliance audits?** A: Yes. The feed offers a timestamped, user-attributed history of delivery events you can reference alongside CSV exports for formal audits. **Q: Can I export activity feed data?** A: Not directly, as the Activity Feed is intended as a real-time stream of events for quick reference and attribution. Export related route/stop data (with timestamps and PoD links) to CSV for analysis or records. **Q: How long is activity feed data stored?** A: Activity Feed data is retained for the lifetime of your EasyRoutes account unless it's removed as part of data deletion. Use route/stop exports when you need a file copy. **Q: What data does Delivery Analytics provide?** A: 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. **Q: Can I view missed delivery reasons?** A: Yes. Analytics shows counts of missed deliveries; individual stop pages display the reason provided by the driver (e.g., no answer, inaccessible). **Q: Can I see completed vs. missed deliveries?** A: Yes. Analytics includes a delivered vs. missed/attempted view over your selected period and or driver. Use it to track delivery success rates. **Q: How often is analytics data updated?** A: Analytics updates as delivery events are recorded. Refresh the Analytics page to see the latest numbers; event details also appear in each route's Activity Feed. **Q: Can I export analytics data?** A: Yes. Export Analytics as CSV for reporting or reconciliation. Choose your date range/driver filter, then select Export or Print from the Analytics page. **Q: What are driver seats and how do they work?** A: Driver seats are active licenses you assign to drivers. You pay only for active seats and can toggle seats on/off anytime without deleting the driver profile. **Q: Can I assign multiple drivers to a single route?** A: No. Each route has one assigned driver at a time. To share the work, split stops across multiple routes or use self-assign links on separate routes. **Q: Can I track my drivers in real-time?** A: Yes. Enable Real-Time Tracking in Settings -> Driver settings (Premium/Enterprise subscription plans) to view live driver location and progress in the Tracking tab of any route. **Q: Will drivers get notified when assigned a route?** A: 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. **Q: How do I edit a driver's details?** A: Edit a driver's name, phone, or profile from the Drivers & Vehicles tab in your EasyRoutes navigation menu. Drivers can also update their profile name in the mobile app. **Q: Are there API rate limits?** A: Yes. Rate limits protect platform reliability. If you plan high-volume integrations, contact support to discuss throughput and best practices (batching, webhooks). **Q: Can I test the API in a sandbox environment?** A: We recommend using a test store or non-production data for integration testing - e.g., draft orders or manual stops with your own contacts - before pushing to production. **Q: Can the API update route status?** A: Yes. The API can update stops and routes (e.g., mark delivered/attempted, assign/dispatch, or edit route details), which can trigger notifications if enabled. **Q: How do I authenticate API requests?** A: Use an access token generated from your EasyRoutes account and include it with each request per the Getting Started guide. **Q: Can I use the API to import orders from other platforms?** A: Yes. Use the Routes API to import stops (orders) from any system that can send the required fields, then create or update routes with those stops. **Q: What types of proof of delivery can EasyRoutes capture?** A: EasyRoutes supports delivery photos, e-signature, driver notes, and automatic timestamps (with GPS location when available) to provide a complete delivery record. **Q: Can proof be shown for attempted deliveries?** A: Yes. PoD can be attached to Attempted deliveries and, if configured in settings, can be required in order to mark a stop as Attempted. **Q: Can I add proof of delivery manually from my web browser?** A: Yes. Admins can upload photos and notes directly to a stop from the browser if something couldn't be captured from a mobile device. **Q: Is e-signature displayed to customers?** A: Tracking pages show that a signature was collected and when; for security purposes, the actual signature image isn't displayed publicly but is retained internally for reference. **Q: Can I include proof in Shopify notifications?** A: Yes. Add PoD image URLs to Shopify's Delivered/Missed templates so customers receive photo links in standard Shopify emails. **Q: Where can drivers download the EasyRoutes Delivery Driver app?** A: The EasyRoutes Delivery Driver app is available for iOS and Android.

Planners can allow drivers to manually reorder stops and or re-optimize remaining stops mid-route. **Q: Will customers see proof of delivery along with live tracking?** A: Yes. If enabled in Order Tracking settings, photos, e-signature confirmation, and driver notes appear on the tracking page alongside live status updates. **Q: Can I troubleshoot missing or inaccurate tracking data?** A: 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. **Q: Does tracking continue if the driver closes the app?** A: Yes - provided background location is configured as allowed (Always/Allow all the time) and the OS isn't restricting the app. Force-quitting or disabling location will pause updates until the app is reopened. **Q: Can I track multiple routes at once?** A: Yes. Open a Route Group to view multiple live driver locations and statuses on one screen; each driver pin is colour-coded by route. **Q: What permissions do drivers need to enable tracking?** A: Drivers must grant Always (iOS) / Allow all the time (Android) location access and enable Precise location.
