How do I get started with the "Tasks and Routes" solution?

Updated over 2 weeks ago

Planning your team’s work doesn’t need to be complex. The "Task and route planning" solution makes it simple to: create tasks, organize routes, and check results — all in a few easy steps.

To open the solution simply go to Map and click the Tasks tab.


Step 1: Make your list of tasks

The first step in using the Tasks and Routes solution is creating a clear list of tasks. You can add new tasks in different ways, depending on what works best for you:

  • From the main vehicle list

  • After selecting a vehicle from the list


Step 2: Create routes for your tasks

In the previous step, you created a list of tasks. Now it’s time to assign those tasks into a route so they can be completed in the right order.

After opening the vehicle where you created tasks:

  • Look for the "Draft - Unplanned tasks" and mark the checkboxes on the side, in the order you want the tasks to be done, then click on the three dotted icon and click "Create new route" This is a quick way to add your unplanned (drafted) tasks to a new route.

By creating routes, you make sure every task is not only scheduled but also placed in the right context — improving both planning accuracy and on-the-road execution.


Step 3: Send the routes to your drivers

Once your route is ready, the final step is to send it to your drivers so they can start their work. This ensures that drivers know exactly which vehicle to use and what tasks need to be completed.

🔔 Before you start

  • Make sure the driver has access to the Mapon Driver app. This is where they’ll see their assigned routes and tasks.

  • The driver must select their vehicle in the app to view the route and begin working on tasks.

They will receive it in the Mapon Driver app and can start completing tasks according to the plan you’ve created.


Step 4: Monitor their current progress

After sending routes to your drivers, you can easily keep track of their progress in real time.

  • Vehicles in the list – When opening the "Tasks and routes" solution, you will see a list of all your vehicles and for each vehicle with planned tasks in the list, you will see some information like the driver’s current task and the next one in line, so you always know where they are in the plan.​

  • Color-coded map – quickly understand the route's driven progress:

    • 🟢 Green = in progress

    • 🔵 Blue = upcoming

    • Grey = completed

This gives you a clear overview of operations without needing to dig into details, helping you spot delays or issues right away.


Step 5: Review completed tasks and routes

After a route is finished, you can review how it went by checking both the completed tasks and route analytics in the Mapon platform. This includes seeing which tasks were done, when they were completed, and whether the route matched the original plan.

You’ll also get insights such as planned vs. actual time and distance, route deviations shown on the map, and color-coded indicators for planned vs. the actual driven route.

This helps confirm everything was completed correctly and gives you a clear picture for improving future planning.


That’s it — now that you know the basics, you can start planning routes and monitoring progress right away.
