[QUOTE="outtatime, post: 1803113, member: 59864"] DRA is where the Roads system puts all of a route's stops in order for you before the morning sort begins. Each route gets a print out that lists all of the stops in numerical order with the address, name and number of packages for each stop. It will also give you the stops plotted out on a map, it's basically a connect the dots. Also, when every package is scanned while going down the belt during the morning sort it gets a little yellow label put on it with the route number and actual stop number on it. If you can count, you can load any number of trucks without knowing a thing about that route. Just load them on the shelves in numerical order. Remember, DRA is just a tool and you don't necessarily have to do them in stop order. Common sense is helpful here. The Powerpad also has the delivery list downloaded to it when you sign on to it in the morning. It will update the list with the number of pieces once you scan them on to your truck (Van scan it's called). When delivering to a stop with multiple packages, the Powerpad will alert you if you missed a package for that address when you go to the signature screen. That feature is very helpful to prevent you from going back to the same address later when you find another package for it. [/QUOTE]
