What does central delivery service mean?

Do you have several pharmacies and your delivery service runs from one location? Then choose that location as the central delivery service. apomap plans the tour as if all orders were there.

When do I need this?

For example, if you have three pharmacies but the goods arrive at your main pharmacy every morning and the driver starts there. Without central delivery service, apomap would send the driver to each pharmacy to collect the goods.

With central delivery service: the chosen pharmacy hands out all deliveries and receives all pickups, no matter which pharmacy the order comes from.

How to set it

• For a single tour: When planning, choose the pharmacy under Central delivery service. → How do I plan a tour?
• For an empty tour: the same field when creating it → How do I use empty tours?
• For a recurring tour: There the field is called Central delivery. → How do I create and manage recurring tours?

If you leave the field empty, the driver collects the goods from each pharmacy themselves. You set the earliest and latest time they may be there via the pickup times. → How do I set pickup times per location?
