Routes, orders, and stops

Learn about the main constructs of Route Planner

Updated over a week ago

Overview

Curri’s Route Planner uses three core constructs that work together to power fulfillment: routes, stops, and orders.

Routes

  • A route is the day’s “bucket” that holds stops and the orders attached to those stops.

  • It’s the object your driver operates against while completing deliveries.

Stops

  • Stops are physical addresses your drivers go to.

  • Common stop types include:

    • Home base/branch/warehouse for pickups

    • Customer locations such as job sites, warehouses, or offices

  • A single route can contain many stops.

Orders

  • Orders represent what’s being moved.

  • An order can live on one stop or multiple stops:

    • Picked up at one stop

    • Dropped off at another stop

  • During fulfillment, orders can be marked picked up or dropped off, with:

    • Photos

    • Signature

    • Recipient name

  • Everything captured by the driver is visible from Route Planner so you can see exactly what’s happening in your operation.

How they relate (at a glance)

  • Route (the container for the day)
    ↳ contains Stops (the places to go)
    ↳ which carry Orders (the items to pick up and drop off)
