How Can I Create and/or Edit a Schedule on Mobile?

Using the PackageRoute mobile app, Authorized Officers (AOs) and Business Contacts (BCs) can easily create and edit driver schedules — whether starting fresh or making changes to an existing draft or published schedule.

✅ To Create a New Schedule

1. Open the side menu and tap Employee Manager

2. Tap on New Schedule to start creating a new schedule. You will be prompted to select the week for the new schedule.

3. You have three options for creating a schedule:

   • Blank Schedule: Start from scratch.
   • Import from Another Schedule: Save time by reusing a previous schedule.
   • Auto-Generate: Create a schedule automatically from timecard and manifest data.
            
     

     Note: If you selected "Import from another Schedule" or "Auto-generate Schedule" please select the week you'd like to pull timecards from. 

   • After selecting one of the three options to create a schedule, click Create.
     

4. Locate the driver you want to schedule from the list and click on one of the boxes corresponding to the date and driver you want to schedule.

   •  

     If the box is blank, there is no schedule for the specific date. Tap on the blank box to add an entry.

   • If the box has a shift (import from another schedule or auto-generate), tab on the box to edit the entry.

   • If the driver has a day off, you'll see the text "DAY OFF" in the box

   • If there is a conflict, the box will highlight red

5. You have two options for the type of schedule:

   • Shift: Use for a general schedule.
   • Route: Include a specific route number for the driver.
        

6. On the schedule view:

   • Tap a cell to assign a route to a driver

   • Use the color key to identify assigned, unassigned, or off days

7. Once finished, tap Save as Draft or Publish in the top-right corner

✏️ To Edit a Draft or Published Schedule

1. From the Schedule tab, select the week you want to edit

2. Choose either a draft or published schedule

      

3. Tap any cell to make changes:

   • Change the assigned driver

   • Update or clear the assigned route
     

     
     

4. After making edits, tap:

   • Save as Draft if you want to keep changes without publishing

   • Publish to make the schedule live

You can edit a published schedule at any time. Changes will be visible to drivers immediately after publishing.
