If your routes follow a consistent pattern — same drivers, same structure — you don't need to rebuild from scratch every time. Reuse day lets you copy a past day's route shells into your current planning day in one step. Only the route setup is copied: driver assignments and route configuration. Orders are never included. ### When to use this Reuse day is helpful when: - Your driver roster is the same day to day or week to week - You have a recurring route structure (e.g., same zones, same vehicle assignments) - You're planning a new day and want a head start without re-entering routes manually ### How to reuse a day's setup 1.

### Frequently asked questions **Can I reuse a setup from any past date?** Yes, as long as that date has at least one route. Days with no routes are greyed out in the calendar. **Will my orders be copied too?** No. Only the route structure is copied. You'll need to add or import orders separately. **Can I edit the routes after reusing?** Yes. The copied routes are fully editable — you can add drivers, remove routes, or adjust configuration before optimizing. **What if I already have routes on the day I'm planning?** Reuse day adds routes on top of any routes already on that day. It does not replace existing routes. * * * _Need help setting up routes from scratch? See_ [_Creating routes_](https://help.routific.com)_._
