Managing Routes

Routes define the sequence of stops that a vehicle follows. Each route is assigned to a client, shift, and vehicle. When you create a route, you select which stops to include and arrange them in order.

Viewing Routes

The Routes table displays the following columns:

ID: Unique identifier (hidden by default)
Name: Route name
Client: The organization this route belongs to
Shift: When this route operates
Start: Shift start time in HH:MM format
End: Shift end time in HH:MM format
Vehicle: The vehicle assigned to this route
Sync Status: Connection status with visual indicators

On mobile devices, some columns (Client, Start, End, Vehicle, Sync Status) are automatically hidden to optimize the display.

Searching for Routes

Use the search field to find routes. The search works across multiple fields including route name, client name, shift name, and vehicle name. Results update as you type.

Filtering by Client

Click the Client column header to open a dropdown filter. Select a specific client to show only routes belonging to that client, or select All Clients to view all routes. Your filter selection is preserved when navigating between pages.

If you are assigned to a specific client, you will only see routes for that client.

Customizing Columns

Click the Columns button above the table.
Check or uncheck columns to show or hide them.

Adding a Route

Click the Add Route button.
Complete the three tabs:

General Information Tab

Name (Required): A descriptive name for the route (e.g., "Morning School Run - North")
Client (Required): Select which client organization this route belongs to
Shift (Required): Select when this route operates (displays shift time in HH:MM format)
Vehicle: Assign a vehicle to this route (shows device name alongside vehicle name)

Managing Stops Tab

Build your route by selecting and ordering stops:

Use the search field to filter stops by name in the Available Stops list.
Drag stops from Available Stops (left) to Selected Stops (right).
Selected stops display numbered badges (1, 2, 3...) indicating the visit order.
Rearrange stops by dragging them within the Selected Stops list.
Click the remove button on any selected stop to remove it from the route.

The order matters - the vehicle will visit stops in the sequence you define, from top to bottom.

Route Summary Tab

Review your route on an interactive map:

See all selected stops marked with numbered blue markers
Click any marker to view stop details: Name, Address, Description, and Radius
View the computed route path connecting all stops
See Total Distance in kilometers
See Estimated Duration for the route
Use the fullscreen button (bottom-right) for an expanded view
Click the print icon (top-left) to print the route map

Click Create Route.

Editing a Route

Click the actions menu (three dots) in that row.

When you update a route, affected passengers will receive notifications about the changes.

Deleting a Route

Click the actions menu (three dots) in that row.

Understanding Sync Status

Routes sync with the NexaBus tracking server in real-time:

Syncing: Spinning icon indicates sync in progress (yellow)
Synced: Check icon confirms successful connection (green)
Failed: Error icon indicates sync failed - click Retry Sync to try again (red)

Sync status updates automatically without refreshing the page.

Pagination

The table displays 10 routes per page. Use the pagination controls at the bottom to navigate:

First and Last page buttons
Previous and Next page buttons
Current page indicator showing "Showing X to Y of Z"
