Routes are used to divide the shipping and dispatching workday into logical segments. In some businesses routes relate to time periods of the day (morning, afternoon and night). In other businesses, each truck route, carrier, or destination (airport) can be a route. Every sales order is associated with a route. Shipping papers and dispatching paperwork, including orders, labels, pick list warehouse release, bills of lading and other dispatching reports, can be printed by route.
Routes are also used to organize sales orders for delivery. New sales orders are assigned a route based on the customer assignment or carrier override. Sales orders can be quickly re-routed in dispatching. The route can also be changed at the time the sales order is entered, based on the User Options settings. Routes can also be changed in Order Control.
