Controls

Proof of Delivery

Driver Actions

What actions drivers can perform (add stops, skip stops, reorder)

Visibility

What information drivers can see (customer details, route info)

Navigation

Default navigation app and preferences

Barcode Scanning

Whether drivers need to scan barcodes at stops

Where to configure

App Config settings are spread across several areas in Settings:

  • Settings > General > Delivery Options β€” POD requirements and custom delivery statuses

  • Settings > General > User Settings β€” Navigation preferences and driving settings

  • Driver profiles β€” Individual driver permissions and capabilities

Why it matters

  • Standardize driver behavior across your fleet

  • Ensure compliance with delivery requirements

  • Reduce errors by limiting unnecessary actions

  • Collect consistent proof of delivery data

Configure App Config before onboarding new drivers for the most consistent experience.
