It is used for your tasks when you wish to plan routes for the future (e.g the next day)
If you wish to start the tasks immediately, just leave the field black
π Optimize for
Vehicles - to use as few drivers/vehicles as possible for completion
Transportation time - for the shortest mileage
Completion time - for the quickest route (shortest driving time)
π Assignees
