This guide will walk through how to integrate with Tookan and how to use Tookan in BLAZE.
BLAZE and Tookan: How they Integrate
Integrating with Tookan allows you to assign orders to a Tookan Team and driver, set a time it is to be delivered by, and other Tookan features. The various tools in each system differ slightly:
- BLAZE's "Complete After" field not available in Tookan: while Tookan does have a "Start Before" field for order scheduling, there is no equivalent on the BLAZE side; likewise regarding BLAZE's "Complete After" field.
When scheduling an order that will be pushed to Tookan, only BLAZE's "Complete By" field should be used. On Tookan this is referred to as "Complete Before."
- Delivery times in Tookan will round up or down to the closest 15 minute mark: While BLAZE supports scheduling a "Complete By" time down to the minute, times in Tookan default to 15 minute increments. Accordingly, BLAZE delivery times will round up or down to the nearest 15 minute mark when pushed to Tookan:
10:01-10:07am on BLAZE = 10:00am on Tookan
10:08-10:14am on BLAZE = 10:15am on Tookan
10:16-10:22am on BLAZE = 10:15am on Tookan
10:23-10:29am on BLAZE = 10:30am on Tookan
and Et cetera. - Task ordering on Tookan: As of May 2020, Tookan sequences order tasks by:
-their delivery time, when viewing tasks on the web, and
-the time they were received, when viewing tasks on the driver's mobile app.
Accordingly, if an order is updated on BLAZE and the updated is pushed to Tookan, it only re-sequences how that task is displayed on Tookan web if a change to its time puts it before/after a different task. The driver app will not re-sequence the tasks it has been assigned.
