Planning a trip.
Click Trips and then New trip. The minimum is a destination; the rest can come later. A trip without a driver simply stays put and can be assigned later.
Stops and locations
A trip can have several stops. At each stop you record whether it is loading or unloading, which address, which dock and what is in it. A required temperature is set here per stop too.
If you pick a saved location, its standing instructions come along automatically: gate code, dock, where to report. You record them once under Locations; the driver sees them on every trip there, in the driver's own language.
Pasting an order
Do you get a transport order by email? Copy the text and paste it into the Paste order box at the top of the trip form. What is clearly stated gets filled in; what is unclear stays empty. The app never guesses: a wrong address that looks certain is worse than an empty field.
Duplicating and templates
Most freight is the same trip every week. Open an existing trip and click Duplicate: the whole route comes along, but the reference number and the amount stay empty. Those belong to that one order.
If you run a trip often, save it as a template. Under Templates you see what you saved, with the days you usually use it.
Cancelling
A trip has a Cancel button. You choose who cancelled (the customer, your own company or force majeure) and why. The trip stays, with its reference number, and whatever was already recorded on the road, such as waiting time and extra work, is kept. A mistake? Under the trip you can withdraw the cancellation.
Your first trip is in quickly.
