How it works
Similar to using a T-card board or other manual dispatch system, Profit Tools Dynamic Dashboard™ organizes work and assignments the way you want to see them in a way that’s simple and accessible. For many companies, making the transition from T-cards to the computer can be difficult. The Dynamic Dashboard's flexibility allows the user to customize the dispatch screen to closely resemble what the dispatcher is comfortable with or has been working with for years.
Dynamic Dashboard arranges cards in columns based on status, location, or assignments. As you make assignments or status changes, the cards automatically move to a different area of the load board (or screen). The top of the card shows enough information so you cant get an overview of the shipment information at a glance, and if you pull the card out of the slot (by clicking on it or holding your mouse over it) you can see all the details.
The Dashboard also shows the various statuses of Inbound/Import Orders, Outbound/Export orders, Assigned, Waiting, Watch List, Dropped Containers, Quick Match, and more. Each job has its own ‘card’ displaying key summary information like container number, pickup and delivery location, freight and free deadlines, move type, dispatch load number and prior to dispatch load number so you can easily see the information you need.
What you get with Dynamic Dashboard:
• Arrange information the way you need to see it.
• Easily see what shipments are a work-in-progress and what shipments need attention.
• Easily see what’s dropped at individual locations.
• See which drivers have assignments and which don’t.
• Ease of recording assignments (drag and drop on screen).
• Items can change color if deadlines are approaching or missed.
• Cards can move to special status areas automatically, such as “Waiting”.
• The system automatically calculates Last Free Date for per diem upon out gate, and tracks that deadline on all dispatch boards automatically.
• Updates made to the system can be automatically transmitted to the customer, such as pickup or delivery completion, keeping you off the phone.
• Managers can have their own boards showing summary information or exceptions.
• Lists, charts, and other arrangements of information are possible on the dashboard, that are not possible on the traditional T-card board.
