Route Changes

Major routing changes can be done using the Route Manager feature. Changes involving moving a portion of one route in to a new route, moving a whole route from one day to another, merging routes, etc can be done through the Route Manager.

Because the changes may affect hundreds of accounts, the ability to use this feature is based on your security level. If it is not displayed on the Operations Menu, you do not have access to this feature - see your System Administrator for questions.

 

From the Operations Menu, select Route Manager option #8. The Route Manager screen will be displayed.

In the Route Selection section:

Enter the company ID or range of company ID for the routes that will be changed.

Enter the frequency codes for the Routes that will be changed.

In the From Route section:
Select the Day and Route and starting sequence (if applicable) for the route that will be changed.

In the To Route section:

Select the Day and Route and starting sequence (if applicable) for the route where the 'from' route will be moved to.

Click or press to continue. The  from and to route will be displayed in split screen.

In my example, I am moving Monday Route F01 to Tuesday Route F01:

In the From Route, enter the sequence numbers you want to move and where you want them inserted in the To Route.

In my example, I want to move stops 40 through 70 to Route F01 on Tuesday, starting at Sequence #20.

In the To Route, enter stops you want to transfer back to the From Route.

In my example, I left these fields blank.

Click or Press and the screen will display the changes.

You can then renumber the stops by clicking on the Re-increment button and the stops will be renumbered.

To confirm the changes and make them permanent, click on the button. The system will ask you to confirm your changes.

Select yes to confirm your changes by clicking on Yes to put a in the circle.

 

To undo the changes and put the routes back to how they started, click on the , you will get a message that changes will be lost.

Select yes to confirm your changes by clicking on Yes to put a in the circle.
