Order management

Know when an order is about to run late.

Set a deadline for orders, see Ok, At Risk, and Delayed status follow each order into the Business App and Driver App, and review SLA performance by week in your reports.

Order timing and SLAs

What you can do

  • Order deadline enforcement

    Turn on Enable Order Deadline Enforcement and set a deadline time for orders.

  • Ok, At Risk, and Delayed states

    Ok uses the business's expected fulfillment time as the reference, At Risk covers the interval before the deadline, and Delayed means the deadline has passed.

  • One shared deadline across order types

    The SLA panel shows tabs for Delivery, Pickup, Eat In, Curbside, and Drive Thru, but the Delayed threshold is one shared setting across them.

  • Highlight delay-risk orders

    Turn on Highlight Delay Risk Orders to flag orders approaching the deadline for review.

  • SLA status in the Business App and Driver App

    Orders carry the same Ok, At Risk, and Delayed classification into Search orders in the Business App and, when your project enables it, into the Driver App's filters.

  • Weekly SLA reports

    Track on-time, at-risk, and delayed orders by week from your SLA reports, and download the report.

Dashboard

Set a deadline, and flag orders before they slip.

Order SLAs let you turn on a deadline for orders and flag the ones getting close to it, so your team can act before an order is late.

  • Enable Order Deadline Enforcement turns the deadline on for orders
  • Set Order Deadline Time sets the deadline value
  • Highlight Delay Risk Orders flags orders approaching the deadline for review
  • The panel shows tabs for Delivery, Pickup, Eat In, Curbside, and Drive Thru, but the Delayed threshold is one shared setting across them
  • Ok uses the business's expected fulfillment time as the reference, At risk covers the interval before the deadline, and Delayed means the deadline has passed

Business App and Driver App

See which orders are Ok, At Risk, or Delayed as your team works.

The same Ok, At Risk, and Delayed classifications follow the order into the apps your team and drivers use, so anyone can spot a late order and filter for it.

  • Search orders in the Business App includes an SLA's filter for Ok, At Risk, or Delayed when the timing filter is visible
  • The Driver App's order filter can show the same SLA state when the project configuration enables it
  • A wide tablet can also show a separate SLA's selector and an SLA's Settings panel that explains the classifications by fulfillment type
  • The timing indicators are shown only when your project's configuration enables the feature

Dashboard

Track SLA performance by week and download the report.

SLA reports show how orders performed against your deadline, broken down by week, from your reports catalog.

  • SLA reports show status as on time, at risk, or delayed for each week
  • Download the report from the SLA reports card
  • Thresholds for the report come from the Order SLAs settings
  • The SLA Orders card sits in the report-card catalog, alongside distance, service times, drivers, and sales reports

How it works

From setup to the next order.

  1. 01Turn on the deadline

    Enable Order Deadline Enforcement and set a deadline time in the Order SLAs settings.

  2. 02Watch the indicators

    The Business App and Driver App show each order as Ok, At Risk, or Delayed, and you can filter by it.

  3. 03Review the weekly report

    Open SLA reports in your reports catalog to see on-time, at-risk, and delayed orders by week, and download them.

Good to know

  • Highlighted and delayed states are an operational signal for your team to review, not a guarantee that a delivery will be on time.
  • Showing SLA status in the Business App and Driver App depends on your project's configuration.
