TABLE OF CONTENTS
Overview
The Route Board is map-centric; it enables viewing existing routes and orders on the map, as well as being able to see the orders and routes in list format below the map. You can access the Route Board by navigating to Dispatch > Route Board to review planned routes and stops, and make changes as needed.
Additional actions that can be performed from the Route Board include:
- View Unloaded Orders
- Geocode Unloaded Orders
- Create/build new routes
- Assign Points of Interest (POI’s)
By default, the search dates appearing will default to the current date. You only need to select the Date and Time Picker to change the dates.
- Click the Route Board tab on the right to enable Branch and/or date selection.
- Click the Branch dropdown to view available branches, then click the branch you wish to view from the list.
- Click the Date and Time Picker to change the date, or type the date in mm/dd/yyyy format.
The active routes for the selected branch/date will appear directly below the Route Board menu on the right. By default, the master flag box will be checked, selecting all the routes/stops for the selected branch/dates.
- Clear the Master Route checkbox.
- Select one route (Rt# column) to view it on the map.
- Selected route(s) will be highlighted blue.
- At the bottom of the screen, the list of stops for the selected route will appear.
- Deselect the route in the same manner, and the route lines will disappear, but the route details will remain in the bottom screen.
NOTE: You can drag the map with the mouse. You can also zoom in/out of an area; double-click over the desired area, or Shift+Click and draw a box around the desired area.
Building Routes
Building routes on the Route Board is designed for building routes in bulk using an existing truck profile and a set of unloaded orders.
To build routes, see Build Routes.
