Frequently asked questions
Quick answers to the questions buyers usually ask once the category, software, or rollout details start getting more specific.
A delivery schedule is the forward plan of which customers are served on which days, by which driver or route, and in what window. It turns recurring delivery commitments into a predictable weekly plan rather than a daily scramble.
The schedule decides which customers get served on which day across the week. The route plan then sequences a single day's stops into the most efficient order. The schedule feeds the route plan.
Count the stops landing on each day and watch for days that pile up. Move flexible accounts to lighter days so each driver's daily stop count stays within what's achievable inside the delivery windows.
Keep recurring accounts on the schedule and add ad-hoc deliveries to the relevant day as one-time rows. Dispatch then absorbs them into that day's route plan alongside the scheduled stops.
