[QUOTE="Code 82 Approved, post: 3460390, member: 46394"] I have used Mapline with new and cover drivers. Basically you import the XLS file from your inbound report, It plots all the stops. I wrote some Microsoft excel macros to sort and filter out data that was not relevant but what I did find is it was impossible to print an entire route. Your best bet was to import only each section that way you have a printable page for each section of the truck. If you have a laptop and a printer and an extension cord the data could be as accurate as the dispatch is underway. Another problem I had was the formatting of addresses in the inbound report Ex. 123 Main could plot at E Main or W Main And there are dozens and dozens of errors like that in each inbound report.
