Manage Orders – Order Filters, Statuses And History, Edit And Export Orders
Route4Me’s ERP Order Management and Routing System helps medium and large last mile businesses manage millions of orders by seamlessly importing them from CRMs and other systems. Each order is tracked with a status that reflects its stage in the order lifecycle, giving you full visibility into progress. The Orders List provides powerful filters to quickly locate specific orders by status or other key attributes. Dynamic View Modes further refine what you see, displaying only the orders relevant to your routing and management needs. You can also export detailed order data to generate insights and analytics that improve efficiency and streamline operations. Learn more in this guide.
