Introduction
The Mover platform’s route-planning algorithm is designed for top-tier efficiency, ensuring every route is optimized to save time, fuel, and resources. But sometimes, you need the flexibility to make adjustments—whether it's balancing workloads or managing stops that don't align perfectly. That’s where Drag & Drop comes in.
This feature allows you to take full control of your routes by moving stops within a route or even between routes. Best of all, built-in guardrails ensure you’re aware of any violations like weight, capacity, or time constraints. The result? Greater flexibility while maintaining operational excellence.
