General Settings

Configure business information, logo, timezone, depot address, and custom domain.

General Settings

The General settings page configures your business identity, operational defaults, and branding that appear across the platform — on invoices, customer communications, and the portal.

General Settings

Business Information

SettingDescription
Business NameYour company name — displayed on invoices, emails, and the customer portal
Business EmailContact email shown on invoices and communications
Business PhoneContact phone number
Business AddressPhysical address shown on invoices

Upload your company logo to brand the platform:

  • Displayed on invoices (print and PDF)
  • Shown in the customer portal header
  • Used in email notifications
  • Appears on the enrollment form

Supported formats: PNG, JPG, SVG. Recommended size: 200x60px or similar aspect ratio.

The logo is stored at tenant.logo_url and served via CDN.

Timezone

Set your business timezone to ensure:

  • Route dates align with your local calendar
  • Cron jobs (auto-generation, auto-billing) run at the correct local time
  • Timestamps in the dashboard display correctly
  • Customer-facing times (ETAs, service windows) are accurate

Select from standard IANA timezone identifiers (e.g., America/New_York, America/Los_Angeles).

Depot Address

The depot is your base of operations — where routes start and end:

SettingDescription
Depot AddressStreet address of your depot
Depot Lat/LngCoordinates (auto-geocoded from address)

The depot location is used by the route optimizer as the starting and ending point for route calculations.

Custom Domain

You can configure a custom domain for your customer-facing portal instead of using the default nextroute.app/portal URL:

SettingDescription
Custom DomainYour domain (e.g., portal.yourbusiness.com)

To set up a custom domain:

  1. Enter your domain in the settings
  2. Add a CNAME record pointing to nextroute.app in your DNS provider
  3. SSL is automatically provisioned

Tenant Slug

Your tenant slug is a URL-safe identifier derived from your business name (e.g., sparkle-bins). It is used in:

  • Portal URLs
  • API identification
  • Enrollment form URLs

The slug is set during signup and can be changed by contacting support.
