Intelligent Dispatching (Multi-Vehicle Routing)
If you have more than one vehicle, TrackRoad can intelligently assign stops to the most eligible driver
based on distance, time windows, capacity, and other routing constraints.
Best practice: If you're unsure which dispatch mode fits, leave it on Auto and TrackRoad will choose.
What is intelligent dispatching?
Intelligent dispatching automatically assigns stops to the best vehicle based on routing constraints like:
- Stop distance and clustering
- Delivery time windows
- Vehicle capacity limits
- Start/finish locations and depots
- Pre-assigned priority stops
TrackRoad hides the complexity of the vehicle routing problem so you can focus on your operations.
If you’re managing routes manually, you can also review
how to split routes.
What is the best dispatch mode?
TrackRoad supports multiple dispatching modes depending on how your fleet is organized.
If you’re unsure, leave dispatch mode on Auto and TrackRoad will select the best option.
Below are the most common dispatching modes and when to use them.
Equal Distance (Central Depot)
Use Equal Distance when all vehicles start from the same location (warehouse or depot).
TrackRoad balances stops evenly around that central point.
Multiple Region
Use Multiple Region when vehicles are geographically dispersed.
Each driver gets stops closest to their own region.
Single Region
Use Single Region when vehicles start from the same location and operate within the same service area.
TrackRoad assigns stops to keep routes smooth and efficient.
What is intelligent dispatching?
Intelligent dispatching assigns stops to the best vehicle automatically based on distance, time windows,
capacity, and routing constraints, then optimizes routes for every vehicle.
What is the best dispatch mode?
If you’re unsure, use Auto. TrackRoad detects your fleet structure and selects the best dispatch mode automatically.
When should I use Multiple Region mode?
Use Multiple Region mode when vehicles are dispersed geographically, and each driver should service stops near their region.
