Operations

Plan, run and swap shifts without four spreadsheets.

Drag-and-drop rotas. Real-time sign-on. Leave that talks to the schedule. A today-board for the duty manager. One source of truth from publish to payroll.

RouteStra Schedules - week-grid rota builder with drag-and-drop
What makes it different

Three things spreadsheets can't do.

01

Build rotas with the rules built in

Drag-and-drop the duty into the day. The system enforces driver-hour limits, rest gaps and split-shift rules as you go - flagged in red before you publish, not after the infringement.

Assignment validator - driver-hours rules checked as you build the rota
02

Sign-on that flows into payroll

Drivers sign on through their browser-based portal - phone, depot tablet, or shared computer all work. Time, location and device are stamped onto the duty. End of week the timesheet is already built - payroll just exports it.

Sign-on screen - drivers tap to start their shift
03

Leave requests that block conflicts

Driver requests leave; the system flags every shift assignment that would clash. Approving a request frees those duties so a swap suggestion goes out the same minute.

Leave management - requests, approvals and conflict checking
How it works

What a typical week looks like.

Build the rota

Drag drivers onto duties; the validator runs as you go.

Publish to drivers

The rota appears in every driver's portal the moment you hit publish - they sign in from any browser, no app store needed.

Drivers sign on

Tap to sign on at the depot. Time, location and device are logged.

Run the day

Team Operations gives the duty manager a live view of who is on, who is missing.

Export to payroll

End of week, exact hours flow out as a CSV ready for your payroll provider.

Use cases

Same platform. Different operators.

One ops manager, one rota, one source of truth. Build the week, publish so every driver sees their shifts in their browser, run the day from the Team Operations board.

When the 7am call-in lands, replacement suggestions are ranked by who's available, who's nearest and who isn't already over their hours.

FAQ

Common questions

The duty manager opens Team Operations, sees the gap, and gets a ranked list of available drivers (filtered by hours, depot, qualifications). Swapping in the new driver pushes a notification to both phones and updates payroll's view automatically.
