Core Features
The office tools every Ivy Route office seat uses, shared by Home Delivery and Single Copy.
New Exciting Feature
Print, Save, eMail, and Fax
The Print, Save, eMail, Fax panel is what makes the Ivy Route web app possible. Everything output in Ivy Route goes through a live preview of the report. That Print Preview is the document, so the same screen covers all the jobs a distributorship has to do:
- Print to a local printer
- Save to a local PDF
- eMail a PDF as an attachment
- Export to a local CSV
- eMail a CSV as an attachment
- Fax directly to the recipient
What leaves the app is a PDF. The recipient only needs to be able to read a PDF. Print and Save to PDF use the page on the screen. eMail and Fax open a short send screen and send that same page. Some reports and utilities also offer a CSV option.
The page on the screen is the page that goes out.
New Exciting Feature
eMail Example
This is the Send dialog for an email. It is filled from the defaults in Company Preferences. Buttons along the top let you pull an address from elsewhere in the system:
- Employees: searchable list of emails from Employee Info
- Pub Hub: searchable list of emails from Publisher Hub
- HD: searchable list of emails from Home Delivery Customers
- SC: searchable list of emails from Single Copy Locations
When you are on a Home Delivery Customer or Single Copy Location screen, two additional buttons appear:
- Contact eMail: fills in the location’s contact email
- Billing eMail: fills in the location’s billing email
These options make it easy to select the address you need from the appropriate part of Ivy Route.
Daily Reports
This is the main report a distributor uses to communicate with the drivers. It shows what the driver needs to assemble for their route on a daily draw basis, for home delivery and single copy together.
- Totals by route and by publication
- Bundle runs, toppers, and receipts when the packet includes them
- The printed packet is the page on the screen
