Last Mile Delivery + Sage

Last Mile Delivery Software for Sage

Sage handles your books. But it cannot plan routes, track drivers, or notify customers. Locate2u is the delivery operations layer that connects to Sage -- syncing delivery costs, invoices, and completion data back to your accounting automatically so your books are always up to date.

Integration Overview

Sage tracks your money. Locate2u runs your deliveries.

Sage is trusted by millions of small and mid-size businesses for accounting, invoicing, and payroll. It keeps your financials organized and compliant. But Sage is an accounting platform -- it has zero logistics functionality.

If your business delivers products to customers using your own drivers, you need last mile delivery tools that Sage does not offer: multi-stop route optimization, real-time driver tracking, delivery time window management, customer notification engines, and proof of delivery. Locate2u provides all of these and automatically feeds the financial results -- delivery costs, completed invoices, driver expenses -- back into your Sage ledger.

Pain Points

The delivery operations gap for Sage users

Sage keeps your finances in order. But running a delivery operation requires tools that no accounting software provides -- and without them, you are losing money on every route.

Manual Invoice Creation After Deliveries

Without a connection between delivery completion and Sage, staff manually create invoices for each delivery. This delays billing, introduces errors, and means some deliveries are never billed at all. Revenue leaks through the cracks of manual data entry.

No Visibility Into Delivery Costs

Sage records total fuel and driver wages as lump-sum expenses. But you cannot see the cost of delivering to a specific customer, neighborhood, or delivery zone. Without per-delivery cost data, you cannot price your services profitably or identify routes that lose money.

Dispatching By Phone and Spreadsheet

Small delivery businesses using Sage typically plan routes in spreadsheets and dispatch drivers via phone calls or WhatsApp. This wastes 2-3 hours daily on planning that could be automated, and produces routes that are 25-40% less efficient than optimized ones.

Customers Left in the Dark

Without delivery software, customers get no tracking, no ETA, and no notification when their delivery is approaching. They call your office repeatedly to ask "where is my delivery?" -- consuming staff time and eroding trust in your service.

How It Works

Deliver, track, and bill -- all synced to Sage

1

Connect

Link your Sage account to Locate2u. Import customer addresses and delivery jobs from Sage or enter them directly. Configure how delivery fees and costs should map to Sage accounts and invoice templates.

2

Optimize

Locate2u takes your delivery jobs and creates optimized routes across your available drivers. Stops are sequenced for minimum drive time, delivery windows are respected, and workloads are balanced. Planning that took hours now takes seconds.

3

Deliver

Drivers follow routes on the Locate2u app. Customers get tracking links and ETA alerts. When deliveries complete, invoices are auto-generated in Sage and delivery costs are logged to the correct expense accounts. Your books stay accurate without manual entry.

Last Mile Features

Delivery operations tools that feed data back to Sage

Route Optimization

Stop planning routes by hand. Enter delivery addresses and let Locate2u calculate the fastest sequence across all your drivers. Reduce drive time by up to 37%, saving fuel and enabling more deliveries per day.

Customer Notifications

Automated SMS and email alerts when the driver is on the way and when delivery is complete. Branded tracking pages with live ETA eliminate "where is my delivery" phone calls and make your small business look professional.

Delivery Time Windows

Offer customers specific delivery windows and keep your promises. Routes are automatically optimized to meet every time constraint, and customers are notified in advance if their window needs to shift.

Driver Mobile App

Drivers get their route on the Locate2u app with navigation, customer details, and delivery instructions. One-tap proof of delivery capture replaces paper manifests and clipboards.

Real-Time GPS Tracking

See where every driver is on a live map. Know which deliveries are complete, which are in progress, and which are running behind -- all from your desk, without calling drivers.

Proof of Delivery

Digital signatures and photos at every doorstep. POD records are stored in Locate2u and can be linked to the corresponding Sage invoice, giving you verifiable evidence that the delivery was made and the charge is justified.

FAQ

Sage last mile delivery questions

No. Sage is an accounting and bookkeeping platform focused on invoicing, expenses, payroll, and financial reporting. It has no logistics capabilities -- no route optimization, no driver tracking, no delivery scheduling, and no proof of delivery. Businesses using Sage for their finances need a dedicated last mile delivery platform like Locate2u that automatically syncs delivery data back to their Sage accounting records.
Locate2u connects to Sage through API integration. When deliveries are completed, Locate2u can automatically create invoices or billable entries in Sage based on delivery data such as distance traveled, number of stops, delivery zone surcharges, or flat delivery fees. Delivery costs including fuel, tolls, and driver hours can also flow to Sage for accurate expense tracking.
Yes. Locate2u can be configured to automatically generate draft invoices in Sage when deliveries are marked complete. Invoice line items can include delivery fees based on your pricing rules -- per-stop charges, per-mile rates, zone-based pricing, or flat fees. This eliminates manual invoice creation and ensures every completed delivery is billed accurately.
Yes. Locate2u is used by delivery businesses of all sizes, from operations with 3 drivers to fleets of 200 or more. For small businesses that rely on Sage for bookkeeping, Locate2u provides route optimization, driver management, and customer communication tools that grow with the business while keeping financial data synchronized with Sage.
Locate2u integrates with Sage Business Cloud Accounting, Sage 50, and Sage Intacct. The integration approach varies by Sage product -- cloud versions connect via API directly, while desktop versions can sync through scheduled data exports or middleware connectors. Locate2u's onboarding team configures the integration for your specific Sage version.
