# How do I use empty tours?

An empty tour is a tour without orders. You create it in the morning and fill it during the day, for example whenever a bag has been packed.

## How to create an empty tour

1. In **Tour planning**, click the **+** at the top right of the tours.
2. Check the suggested **name** or enter your own, for example "Afternoon tour".
3. Enter the **start time**.
4. Choose **driver**, **start point**, **end point** and **vehicle**. You can still change the driver later.
5. Only with several locations: under **Central delivery service**, choose the pharmacy the tour departs from. → What does central delivery service mean?
6. Click **Create**.

## Fill an empty tour

Drag orders into the tour or use **Select action → Add orders to a tour**. It's even faster with scan mode or the tour label. → How do I add, remove or move orders?

|| Note: Before your driver sets off, you need to optimise the tour once. To do so, click the blue arrow circle. → Prepared or ready: when do I need to re-optimise?

|| Tip: Need the same empty tour every day? Create it as a recurring tour without favourites. Then it's there automatically every morning. → How do I create and manage recurring tours?
