Overview
The Order Queue holds all orders that are not yet scheduled on a route. From here, you review details and place orders onto a route so they can be fulfilled by a driver. Orders can be added manually, through our email ingester, or through and integration with your ERP/TMS, and when added, they'll show up in the Order Queue, ready to be placed onto routes.
What you see
- Order row with key fields: pickup, drop-off, tags, and an Order/PO/B#. 
- Status indicating whether the order is unscheduled (in the queue) or already placed on a route. 
- Detail panel (when expanded) to verify addresses and notes before scheduling. 
How to place orders on a route
- Open Order Queue. 
- Drag and drop the order onto a route in Planner (Kanban/Map/Calendar). 
- Save the route. The order leaves the queue and appears on that route’s stop list. 
Tip: Use auto-assignment when available to place multiple orders quickly.
Finding and reviewing orders
- Use search and filters to locate orders by Order/PO/B# or tags. 
- Expand an order to confirm the pickup and drop-off details before scheduling. 
Adjusting after placement
- Need to change the plan? Open the route in Planner to reorder, move, or remove the stop. 
- Removing an order from a route returns it to Order Queue. 
Common tasks
- Pre-check orders in the morning to ensure addresses and tags look right. 
- Stage unscheduled orders throughout the day and place them as trucks free up. 
- Clean up any stragglers at end-of-day by assigning or deferring them. 
Troubleshooting & Caveats
- Order not in the queue: Confirm it exists on Orders (via ERP/email/CSV/manual add) and isn’t already on a route. 
- Duplicates: If you can't add an order, ensure the Order # is unique. 
- Wrong address or tag: Edit the order on Orders first, then place it from the queue.
