Delivery
Delivery, from route to proof
Streamline ERP connects picking, packing, routes, driver records, proof of delivery, reusable assets, charges, and invoicing for order-driven producers, distributors, and route-based suppliers.
What it does
Turn confirmed orders into controlled delivery runs
Streamline connects delivery workflows to orders, packing, routes, invoices, customer addresses, and reporting. Instead of piecing together delivery runs from spreadsheets and printed notes, bakeries can manage dispatch in one connected ERP software system.
Overview: Streamline is a delivery management software that connects distribution, route management, proof of delivery, reusable asset tracking, delivery charging, and dispatch workflows with orders, packing slips, invoices, and reporting inside one management software platform.
Why it matters
Keep dispatch, drivers, customers, and billing on the same record
Delivery plans change by customer, address, weekday, and date. Streamline keeps those rules beside the order, then carries route order, packing details, delivery evidence, asset movements, and charges into the records used after the vehicle returns.
🧠
Organize recurring and dated routes
Assign deliveries by weekday or specific date, then use sub-routes to keep related stops together.
📦
Load in stop order
Use route sequence to guide picking, packing, paperwork, and vehicle loading before the run leaves the site.
🗒️
Apply address-level rules
Keep delivery days, charges, route assignments, and instructions with the customer address they govern.
🔎
Prepare route-ready documents
Batch print packing slips and invoices in route order, including customer SKUs and driver notes where required.
📱
Record the customer handoff
Use the Distribution App to capture pictures, signatures, geotags, timestamps, and delivery notes at the stop.
🔗
Keep exceptions visible
Record delivery notes and collected returns on the route so the office has context for follow-up.
🚚
Track reusable assets
Use individual barcodes to record assets packed, dispatched, delivered, collected, or still held by a customer.
⚙️
Carry records into billing
Keep the order, address, route, delivery documents, proof, and applicable charges available for invoicing and reporting.
Distribution
Keep distribution organized before the van leaves.
Streamline supports distribution workflows from picking and packing through loading and dispatch. Delivery information is connected to customer addresses, route order, invoices, and packing slips so teams can prepare shipments with fewer manual handoffs.
- Sequence picking, packing, and vehicle loading by route order
- Batch print packing slips and invoices in the same sequence
- Apply delivery charges according to address-level rules
- Use templates configured for delivery notes and packing slips
- Show customer SKUs when the buyer uses a different item reference
- Add driver notes and address instructions to delivery paperwork
- Sort items and filter packing slips by item attribute
- Keep customer, address, order, route, and invoice context together
Why it helps
For a mixed run of cafés, stores, and wholesale accounts, dispatch may prepare documents and loads in stop order instead of reorganizing them again at the vehicle.
Route management
Routes that make sense in the real world.
Streamline supports regular weekday routes and routes assigned to a specific delivery date. The same address may follow different routes on different days, while sub-routes keep selected stops together. The final sequence also organizes distribution reports and driver information.
- Organize routes by day of week
- Organize routes by specific delivery dates
- Deliver the same address on different routes on different days
- Create sub-routes for grouped stops
- Keep related addresses together on the same run
- Use route order to drive distribution reports
- Support complex address-based delivery workflows
- Connect with route optimization tools like OptimoRoute and Detrack
Recurring
Use weekday routes for regular drops so established customer addresses return to the expected run.
Exception-ready
Move an address to a different route for one delivery date without rewriting its regular weekday pattern.
Grouped
Create sub-routes for early café drops, shared locations, or customer stops that should stay together.
Integration-ready
Send delivery orders and configured pack data to OptimoRoute, or use Detrack workflows when the relevant connection is set up.
Proof of Delivery
Confirm the handoff without paperwork.
Streamline supports instant electronic proof of delivery so bakeries can record completed drops with more confidence and less admin. Instead of chasing signed paper slips, drivers can capture delivery confirmation on the spot.
Paperless confirmation
Capture instant electronic proof of delivery with no printed slips to chase back to the office.
Photo-backed records
Record pictures, signatures, geotags, and timestamps at the doorstep for cleaner delivery confirmation and stronger customer records.
Connected handoff
ESend the proof of delivery from the app and keep the delivery note, driver, time, scans, and route activity connected to the wider order workflow.
Delivery Asset Tracking
Know where your delivery assets went.
Operations that deliver in reusable trays, crates, racks, totes, or containers may label each asset with a unique barcode. Scans link the asset to its delivery address and update its movement through packing, dispatch, delivery, collection, and return.
Assign it to the delivery
Scan the packing-slip barcode, then scan the assets linked to the relevant address and delivery date.
Update every movement
Record packing, dispatch, delivery, collection, and return scans, including who handled the action and when.
Asset tracking support: Streamline helps wholesale bakeries manage reusable delivery assets, barcode labels, customer possession, delivery confirmation, and route records inside one connected management software workflow.

FAQ
Delivery management questions, answered.
What does Streamline delivery and distribution software manage?
Streamline manages route setup, pick and pack, delivery documents, driver reports, proof of delivery, reusable assets, address-based charges, and connected billing records. It uses customer orders, delivery addresses, dates, items, and route rules as the starting point.
How are recurring routes and one-off changes handled?
Regular routes may be organized by weekday, while a specific delivery date may use a different route. The same address may therefore follow different runs on different days, and sub-routes may keep selected stops together.
What does proof of delivery record?
On supported Android workflows, the Distribution App may record pictures, signatures, geotags, timestamps, delivery notes, the responsible user, and assets delivered, collected, or still with the customer. Saved activity may be synchronized after an offline route.
What setup or integrations are required?
Core setup includes customer delivery addresses, routes, address rules, charges, and document templates. Barcode and proof-of-delivery workflows use the Android Distribution App. OptimoRoute and Detrack are separate connections that require the relevant integration to be configured.
