Cannabis Delivery Routing
Routes built from your orders
Distru, a Cannabis AI ERP, generates delivery routes from your sales orders. The driver and vehicle go on the Metrc manifest, and the signature lands on the invoice. Built for distributors whose trucks leave before the paperwork's done.
Your driver leaves with the manifest in hand
Route, manifest and invoice come from the same sales orders. There's no second list and no retyping driver details.
Routes from the day's sales orders
Filter orders by ship-from location, select the ones going out and set your vehicle count. Distru generates the route and emails an editable link.
Driver and vehicle on the manifest
Save drivers and vehicles once, then pick them when you build the transfer template. Driving directions pull in, and you submit to Metrc when you're ready.
Signature on the invoice
The driver collects the signature at drop-off, and it lands on the invoice. Proof of delivery stays with the order.
How do cannabis distributors route deliveries?
Cannabis delivery routing turns a day of wholesale orders into truck runs. Each run sets which stops go on which truck. Each run needs a driver and vehicle on the Metrc manifest. The run and the manifest have to agree before the truck leaves. Here the route is generated from the orders you already took.
Why the delivery day gets built three times
Most delivery days get built three times. One person pulls the ready orders. Another types addresses into a map app. A third keys the driver and vehicle into the Metrc transfer template from a text message. Then the truck comes back. Nobody can match the clipboard signature to an invoice without asking around.

A delivery day, run in Distru
Day before: pick the orders
Most teams group orders on a whiteboard. In Distru, filter by location, select the orders and set your vehicle count.
Generate the route
Distru emails a route link you can edit. Then put the saved driver and vehicle on the transfer template.
Delivery: sign and collect
At drop-off the signature is collected digitally and the payment received is recorded. Each one lands on the invoice.
Integrate with the Tools You Use
Distru connects your compliance, accounting, sales, and retail tools so data stays in sync and your team stops double-entering it.
Common questions about routing and manifests
Let’s answer the most commonly asked questions about Cannabis Software.
Does Distru pick the best order of stops?
Distru generates a route from the orders you select and the vehicle count you set. You can edit it before the truck leaves. It doesn't solve for the shortest drive across a whole day. Teams with heavy daily volume often pair it with a dispatch platform.
Can I send a route to a driver's phone?
The route arrives as an emailed link that opens in a browser. Distru pulls driving directions into the manifest. Your team can edit them or use their own navigation. There's no Distru driver app.
Does the driver name reach the Metrc manifest?
Yes. Save drivers and vehicles in Distru. Select them on the transfer template, and they carry onto the manifest. The template goes to Metrc when you submit it.
What happens if we change the route mid-day?
Edit the route itself and you're fine. A change made in an outside dispatch tool doesn't come back into Distru. Update the order record too.
Do you work with dispatch platforms?
Yes, through the Distru API.
Does the delivery signature reach the invoice?
Yes. Signatures are collected digitally in Distru and applied to the invoice. The payment amount received is recorded too. Your AR team sees proof of delivery without chasing the driver.
