Split Route Destinations – Select Addresses To Create A New Route

Splitting a planned route with Route4Me is simple. Just select from a route the addresses you want to relocate, and Route4Me will create a new, optimized route. This feature is ideal for dividing a route and assigning parts of it to different drivers. Once it’s ready, you can quickly dispatch the new route to a driver in real-time for efficient fleet coordination. Learn more in this guide.

Route4Me makes splitting a planned route easy by allowing you to select addresses to move and automatically creating a new optimized route.

 

 

Select The Route You Want To Split – Open Route in Route Editor

To split route addresses and create a new route, go to “Dynamic Routing” > “Routes” from the Navigation Menu. Then, from your Routes List, click “Edit” next to the route you want to split. You’ll be re-directed to the Route Editor.

From the Route Editor’s top menu, click “Route” and select “Split Into a New Route

Open Your Routes List

Split Route Addresses – Automatically Create A New Optimized Route

Check the boxes next to the addresses you want to move to a new route. Then, click the “Split Into a New Route” button to complete the process.

From the Routes List, select the route you want to split.

 

Routes that are dispatched or in progress can also be split, but only pending addresses can be moved. Addresses with a “Completed” status cannot.

When splitting a route that is in progress, you will not be able to add addresses marked as Completed.

 

After splitting route addresses, Route4Me automatically removes the selected addresses from the original route and adds them to a new optimized route. The new route inherits the same route name, start address, User, and Vehicle.

From your Routes List, you can rename the route or assign a new User or Vehicle. Just click the Down Arrow button next to the Route you wish to modify and select an action from the drop down menu.

Route4Me moves the selected addresses to a new optimized route, retaining the start address, route name, and user.
