Tools: X Tracking

Use X Tracking to plot orders, routes, and drivers on a web-based map in real time. Unassigned and assigned orders are shown in addition to route stops that are plotted in sequential order for a true graphical representation of one or multiple routes. Several reports can be created, such as the "Driving Distance" report which shows true GPS driving distance the delivery personnel. All of these features add up to an easy and intuitive tool that can be used to more effectively manage the fleet.

Use X Tracking to track orders, driver, and routes with a variety of options and settings.

On the left you will see the controls with three tabs: Plotting, Markers and Order Updates. The Plotting tab has 4 sub-tabs.

Orders

Field Name	Description
Unassigned Orders By Fleet	Show all the points for unassigned orders by fleet. You can select as many fleets as needed.

Drivers

Location

Field Name	Description
Drivers By Fleet	Select the fleet to plot all driver locations, or select drivers individually.
Drop Down List (1)(Location selected)	Choose to display the last known location of drivers on the map.
Time Zone	Choose the time zone to localize driver GPS points to. For instance, if you select the Time Zone option to be Pacific Time and are tracking a driver in Eastern Time the times displayed will be shown in Pacific Time.
Data Source	GPS: Driver locations are updated based on GPS data being collected from the driver's mobile device. Driver Reports: Driver locations are updated based on the last known status event in X Dispatch. For instance, the arrival at the origin of an order assumes the driver is currently located at that address. This data may be inaccurate if a driver performs status updates on orders when they are not currently located at the location they are performing a status update for. Drivers Reports & GPS: This is a combination of the above two options. GPS data always has priority, but driver reports that are more current than the last GPS fix will be used as well.
