Route lists are intended to determine a specific order processing time for retailers, which will help suppliers optimize production volume planning.
The configuration of route lists is available only to the Administrator. In turn, the supplier can only view the route lists configured for him.
Enabling and configuring Route Lists.
To grant permissions for the supplier to work on route lists under the administrator account, you need to go to the Management > Business Rules > Route Lists section.
Two active tabs are available for the Administrator: "Enabling for suppliers" and "Configuring route lists by suppliers".
In the "Enabling for Suppliers" tab, you need to select the suppliers to whom you want to grant access to the route lists and turn on the switch.
After the user switches the switch in front of the supplier to the active position, the configuration of route lists will be available for the selected supplier. After each action, a pop-up window with the text "Saved" will appear in the lower left corner of the screen.
In the "Setting up route lists by suppliers" tab, all created route lists by suppliers are displayed.
To find the route list that includes a specific Retailer, you need to enter the name of the store in the "Number of Retailers" field.
To create a new route list, select the desired supplier in the Supplier field. Only suppliers for which route lists are enabled in the "Enabling for Suppliers" tab are available for selection.
After selecting a supplier, you must specify:
Order acceptance time - the time from which the Smart Satu system allows you to create orders for a supplier who works on route lists.
The order desk working time is the time from which the Smart Satu system begins to send the sent orders to third-party systems.
By default, the order acceptance time is 06:00, unless otherwise specified by the supplier.
To create a new rule, you need to click Create Route list button.
At the first step of creating a business rule for route lists, you need to fill in:
Name
Initial order-processing time
Final order processing time
Go to the next step to select the Retailer from the list or select the distribution zone of the BP on the map.
In the second step, the following options are available:

Account Role: Supplier
After setting up the route lists, they are available to the Administrator in the Management section>Route lists.
The Supplier can view all the route lists that have been configured for him by the Administrator, as well as the start time of receiving orders and the work of the order desk.
The details of the selected route list display:
Name
Initial time
End time
Retailer quantity and list
Account: Retailer
If the retailer was switched by the supplier to the mode of operation according to the route lists, this means that all orders for this supplier will be processed at a specific time specified by the supplier. Orders that will be generated after the period specified by the supplier will not be processed during the current day.
There are 3 scenarios for sending applications when working on route lists:
The retailer sent the order during the order processing period – in this case, the order will be created successfully and the user will see the information message "The order by supplier "N" was successfully created".
The retailer sent the order before the order-processing period – in this case, the order will be created successfully, but the information message will contain information about the time in which the order will be processed. Informational message: "The order by supplier X has been successfully created. The order by supplier "N" will be processed from X To Y"
The retailer sent the order after the order-processing period – in this case, the order will not be sent to the supplier, you should try to place this order within the next day, before or during the period specified in the message. Informational message: An order by supplier "N" for your retailer is possible only from x to y".
