Courier route information

While a route is in progress, you can see the time when the courier performed certain key actions: when the route was set, when the courier sent their current coordinates last, and when the courier returned to the depot.

Route built
The time when the courier sent their coordinates last.
Coordinates sent
The time when the server recieved the courier's coordinates last. In the example above, data about the courier's position at 16:57 was received at 17:52.
Return to the depot

The Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA) that Track & Trace calculates every few minutes based on incomplete and non-canceled orders on the route. For more information, see Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA).

Calculation method
The time the last coordinates were received added to the planned amount of time required to visit all the remaining locations on the route. Orders that break the sequence aren't taken into account.
Set start time

The route tracking start time. It varies depending on the planning method:

  • API: The start time matches the route start time if it's set. If not, it's 5 hours before the start of the earliest order window.
  • Interface: The start time matches the time when the vehicle leaves the depot.
  • Importing a route from Excel: The start time matches the shift start time.

Courier's location at a certain time

The blue slider under the map is active when a route has been started and after it is completed. By moving the slider, you can view the courier's location at different points in time. The exact time is displayed to the right of the slider. To see where the courier was at the selected time, click Show on map.

Order list

You can add an order to the route and change the order sequence. If the order sequence doesn't seem optimal, click Optimize route, and the route will be rebuilt.
