How a visit works
-
Book a time
The dispatcher picks a time the terminal has open and adds what the truck will pick up or drop off.
-
Assign the truck
Add the truck and the driver. Change them later if plans change, and the terminal sees the update.
-
Drive to the gate
The driver hears about any change to the visit by text, email or in the app.
-
In and out
The terminal checks the visit at the gate, and everyone sees each pickup and drop-off as it's done.
One system for the whole visit
