About This Automation

Dispatch and delivery coordination involves manually matching orders to drivers, sending instructions, and tracking confirmations across email and spreadsheets. Manual assignment creates delays, data entry errors, and poor visibility into delivery status.

Automation assigns drivers based on availability and route efficiency, sends confirmations automatically, and reconciles delivery records in real time. The result is faster dispatch, fewer errors, and complete tracking visibility.

Key features

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Order Ready for Dispatchtrigger

Workflow is triggered when an order status changes to 'Ready for Dispatch' in the order management system or a warehouse notification arrives.

2. Match Driver to Route

An intelligent queries the driver availability sheet and order details, then assigns the best available driver based on location, capacity, and delivery date.

3. Send Dispatch to Driver

Dispatch instructions including order ID, customer address, and delivery window are sent to the assigned driver via SMS.

4. Notify Customer of Shipment

A shipment confirmation email with order details and a tracking link is sent to the customer.

5. Monitor Delivery Status

The automation monitors for driver delivery confirmation and automatically logs the delivery timestamp and status.

6. Update Billing Record

The delivery status is automatically updated, marking the order as fulfilled and triggering any post-delivery workflows.

7. Send Delivery Confirmation

A delivery confirmation email with thank you message is automatically sent to the customer within 30 minutes of confirmed delivery.
