How can I update multiple stops at the same time?

Posted by Rob Spivey on May 25, 2023

You can update multiple stops at the same time from the Advanced Planning screen, in both the ‘Unplanned’ section and the ‘Selected Run’ section. 

To use this feature, you will need to enable the ‘Update Multiple Stops’ user authority for your profile. From the main menu, go to ‘Users & Drivers’. Select your profile, then click the ‘Edit’ button. Click the ‘Custom Settings’ button. In the Advanced section, tick ‘Update Multiple Stops’ and then click ‘Save’.

How to update multiple stops

The following can be done in both the Unplanned and the Selected Run sections of the Advanced Planning Screen. Only the Unplanned section is shown in the illustrative screenshots below, but the process is the same for updating multiple stops in the Selected Run section.

Step 1: Go to the Advanced Planning screen

From the main menu in the top right corner of Stream click ‘Advanced Planning’.

Step 2: Select the Stops you want to update

Select one or more stops.

  • To select multiple consecutive stops, left click on a stop, then press Shift+left click on another stop
  • To select multiple individual stops, left click on a stop, then press Ctrl+left click on another stop

Step 3: Click ‘Actions’ and then ‘Update’

With your orders selected, click ‘Actions’ and then click ‘Update’ from the dropdown menu.

Enter your required details in the relevant fields, then tick the Apply checkbox next to all fields you would like to update.

If the first selected stop already has details for the relevant fields, the details in the popup will be pre-populated with this.

Step 5: Apply the Changes

Click ‘Save’ and the applied details will be updated for all selected stops.
