Route planning capabilities
Your routes depend on more than addresses. A service visit takes time, a delivery changes the load, and some jobs need a particular team. The Flowtlas engine models these requirements alongside travel. Contact us to confirm generation availability and integrations for your workspace.
The operational problem
A task describes the work: one service visit or an ordered chain of stops. A tour connects a vehicle and any assigned people with dated work windows. The horizon defines the overall period the engine considers.
Product capability
Supply verified locations, realistic service durations, visit windows, available vehicles and people. Add skills, consistent capacity units and stop order where the operation needs them.
Prepare the work and its locations. Define tours, dated working periods and start/end requirements. Set eligibility, capacity and commitment rules. When generation is enabled, review assignments, stop sequences and any unassigned work.
Practical workflow
Supply locations, service durations, visit windows and resource requirements.
Specify vehicles, assigned people, start locations and dated working periods.
Include consistent capacity units, eligibility and stop order where needed.
When generation is enabled, inspect assignments and estimates, including any work left unassigned.
Operational benefits
In practice
Two vans have work windows from 08:00 to 17:00. One visit has access between 09:00 and 11:00; another needs a specialist skill and 90 minutes on site. The request must account for travel, work duration and eligibility together.
This fictional setup illustrates inputs. It is not a solved route or a customer result.
Questions
Flowtlas organizes locations, resources and work for route planning. Its engine models service visits, ordered pickup and delivery tasks, and tours with one or more dated working periods. Check current product access and enabled workflows when discussing a specific deployment.
Yes. Stops can have supplied time windows, and tours have dated work windows. Include service duration and travel requirements as well so the model reflects the time the work actually needs.
Yes. Tasks and places can restrict eligibility, and resources can carry supplied skills. The engine uses those requirements when determining eligible tours. It does not independently verify professional qualifications or equipment records.
Work may lack an eligible tour or fail to fit capacity, time or route constraints. When the request permits partial work, the result can report unassigned tasks and reason categories. Review those reasons together with the task and resource data.
