Moving unassigned work orders in the basket

Are you using the work order basket? When you were optimising your routes, some tasks remained in the “Unassigned” status? AntsRoute lets you put these tasks back into the basket so that you can reschedule them later. To do this, follow these simple steps:

💡 You can only put back in the basket the work orders in the “Unassigned”, “Planned” and “Deleted” status.

• Moving several unassigned work orders in the basket
• Moving one unassigned work order in the basket
• Customise the time slot for work orders added to the basket

Moving one unassigned work order in the basket

Let's take an example from the “Agenda” tab in the “Organise” module:

1. Go to the “Organise” module.
2. Click on the “Agenda” tab.
3. Select a period in the calendar.
4. If any work orders have not been assigned, you can click on the “View the list” button.

   

5. Identify a task and click on “...” > “Add to basket”.

   

☝️ Good to know: You can also add work orders back to the basket from the “Monitor” module.

Customise the time slot for work orders added to the basket

AntsRoute can be used to define the time slot for work orders that are moved back into the basket.

Three options available

When a task is added to the basket, it can:

• Keep its current time slot.
• Adopt a default slot, i.e. one of the time slots available in the list of slots on the site.
• Not have a time slot assigned.

☝️ Note: If you use the pick-up and delivery function, only the parent operation will be updated, i.e. pick-up and delivery. The time slots for secondary operations, i.e. loading and unloading, will remain unchanged.

How to define the time slot for work orders added to the basket

1. Go to the ‘Settings’ module.
2. Click on the ‘Settings’ tab.
3. Open the ‘Default values’ tab.
4. Select a ‘Time slot for work orders moved to basket’.
5. Click on the ‘Save’ button.
