Routing, Pricing, & Inventory Just Got Better.
We know that this is always a busy time for event rental businesses, and we’re making sure ERS works even harder to support your growth. Our recent product updates are all about making it easier to manage your day-to-day operations and fine-tune your processes where it matters most.
Here’s a closer look at what’s new in your ERS system:
Routing Enhancements
- Push Routes to Multiple Staff Members
You can now assign the same route to multiple employees at once. This is perfect for large deliveries or multi-person crews, reducing time spent coordinating logistics. - Status Hover Text on the Scheduling Screen
We’ve added helpful hover text on the scheduling screen. This update makes it easier to quickly understand route progress at a glance. - Last Updated Timestamps
Wondering when a route was last modified? Now, each route includes a timestamp, giving you better visibility into dispatch updates and employee changes.
Pricing & Payments
- City & Zip Code-Based Price Rules
Customize your pricing with more precision. You can now adjust pricing based on specific cities or zip codes, ideal for delivery zones, remote areas, or regional promotions.
Inventory Display Improvements
- Add-Ons Without Images
Want to offer add-ons without uploading an image for each one? Now you can. This update allows you to display individual add-ons with just text, giving you more flexibility in how you manage and present your catalog.
