Usage and general information
- Orders from WooCommerce will be automatically converted to tasks in GSMtasks when they have been marked “processing”. Any changes made to the order or its components will be automatically updated in GSMtasks.
- GSMtasks receives detailed information like the order creation date, reference number, delivery or billing address, order information, price, and customer notes. You can view the order on your GSMtasks account under Tasks.
Task completion
After receiving a new task in GSMtasks, you can easily assign it to a driver for completion:
- right-click on the task on the map or in the list view to assign it to a driver;
- the task will show under the driver’s name on the dashboard and will be sent to the driver’s mobile app;
- if the driver has multiple orders on their task list, you can easily optimize the driving route by right-clicking on the driver’s name and choosing Optimize worker route;
- managers can track the driver’s location on the map and keep an eye on the task completion process (each task state has a representative color);
- you can also send triggered-based notifications with a tracking link to customers so they can be ready to receive their orders.
