How does the route optimization system work for weekly recurring service?+
The system builds persistent weekly route templates rather than optimizing each day independently. Your Monday customers are always Monday customers, grouped geographically for maximum density. When a new customer signs up, the system evaluates which day has the closest existing route to their address and assigns them accordingly. Over time, routes become increasingly dense as new customers fill geographic gaps. The system also identifies when a route has reached capacity and recommends splitting it into two tighter routes rather than overloading a single technician.
Can the system handle hundreds of individual subscriptions with automated billing?+
Absolutely. The billing engine is designed for high-volume subscription management. Each customer has a billing profile with their card on file, billing cycle, rate, and any adjustments. The system processes all charges automatically on the scheduled cycle and handles failed payments with retry logic and customer notifications. Rate changes are applied individually or in bulk. Seasonal pauses suspend billing automatically and reactivate on the scheduled resume date. The system supports five hundred or more active subscriptions without any manual billing intervention.
