When they select a customer they will receive directions and site instructions. In the bottom right corner there is a picture of two roads splitting. This is the off route feature. After clicking on that button, the driver can search for any customer by account number, name, etc.

Select products and items the customer purchases. Apply payments and change quantities. Review transaction with the customer The customer signs their name on the screen; the driver prints a receipt and leaves it with the customer. The invoice, with the customer's signature, is electronically stored in the system and the office staff can pull up the information as needed. The driver then proceeds to the next stop on the route.
