The courier can then mark them as out for delivery. The delivery list can be easily searched by name or id of the customer.The app automatically places the deliveries in sequence of distance from the starting point and can provide directions to each customer on the route via iMaps or any other compatible Sat Nav app installed on the device. The app includes a screen that shows all scheduled deliveries on an interactive map.Whilst in use, the app records the GPS location of the courier and sends this information back to the Pro Delivery Manager database so that your manager can track the location and progress of the courier. Live information is displayed on a Google Map within the online application.The app can also be used on the collection counter at the branch to record collection of orders.The results of each delivery or collection from the branch, including on-screen recipient signature, are recorded in the app and synchronised back to the Pro Delivery Manager database next time there is a data connection available.The app can also send out automated SMS notifications to update the patient on the status of their delivery/collection.Benefits:Companies currently using this app have found that their couriers are now working more efficiently as it has encouraged self-regulation. They have also been able to do away with expensive van-tracking hardware and subscriptions. Staff at the branch are able to quickly answer customer queries regarding delivery/collection of items. Full reporting and van tracking data allows business owners to get to grips with how each branch and courier is performing and compare this over a period of time to identify areas for improvement. Tracking data can also be used to identify business mileage for tax purposes.The app was commissioned by an Independent Pharmacy to meet the specific needs of this business model. Since March 2016 it has been made available to any type of business that runs their own delivery service.Tags: prodeliverymanager, ePOD, POD, van tracker, prescription delivery
