How to differentiate field workers’ routes with colors
This new feature should delight many users. Thanks to AntsRoute 4.18, it is now possible to assign different colors to field workers. Each of them keeps the same color for every route. It makes the identification of drivers on the map easier.
After opening the panel via the button on the right to display the list of routes, you can determine a color only for field workers who have a route assigned on this date. That’s why, you can go to the “vehicles” tab of the “resources” module to assign a color to each of your workers.
How to confirm order completion from the “analyze” tab
The new version of AntsRoute also allows you to confirm or cancel orders of completed routes directly from the « analyse » module of the Web interface. You just need to go to the “route report” tab of the “analyze” module. Then, just click on “…” to open the panel.
From the list of “done orders”, you can directly identify the order that you want to confirm or cancel and click on “…” > “cancel” or “mark done”. For completed orders, you can add comments. For cancelled orders, you can add comments and the reason of cancellation. After having confirm or cancel an order, it changes to green and red respectively.
How to export the list of cancelled orders
Thanks to the new version fo the route optimization software, you can now export the list of cancelled appointments to Excel or CSV file. From the “management of cancelled appointments” tab of the “schedule” module, you just need to click on the “download orders” button.
