Grid Layouts on the Dispatch Board
- Michelle Cabaya (Unlicensed)
Active Orders, Routes, and Drivers grids on the dispatch boards can be customized for each individual Operations App user or saved as custom layouts to share among users. This eliminates the need to rearrange grids, set filters, and select fleets and drivers each time the dispatch board is loaded. Once a layout is saved, the associated grid will default to the last saved layout the next time it is loaded.
Quick Tips
Save default grid layouts so that you will not be prompted to select fleets when going to the dispatch board.
The last saved layout(s) will be the one that is loaded when landing on the dispatch board.
For saving grid layouts on the On-Demand Dispatch board, you must have the Save Dispatch Layout permissions enabled under X Dispatch Functions > Dispatch. For the ability to create, edit, or delete custom On-Demand Dispatch grid layouts, you must also have the Custom Dispatch Layouts, Create, Edit, and/or Delete permissions enabled. See Users (Classic Operations App).
For saving grid layouts on the Route Dispatch board, you must have the Save Dispatch Layout permissions enabled under X Route Functions > Dispatch. For the ability to create, edit, or delete custom Route Dispatch grid layouts you must also have Custom Dispatch Layouts, Create, Edit, and/or Delete permissions enabled. See Users (Classic Operations App).
How to Save the Current Layout
On the dispatch board, right-click on the half of the board you would like to save and select Save Layout or, if saving an order or driver grid, press 0 on your keyboard.
Select which grid you would like to save.
Orders/Routes - Save the Active Orders/Routes grid as the default Active Orders/Routes grid.
Drivers - Save the Drivers grid as the default Drivers grid layout. This is for the Active Drivers grid on the current dispatch board only. For example, if you save the Active Drivers grid on the On-Demand Dispatch board, it will not affect or be available to load for the Active Drivers grid on the Route Dispatch board.
Both - Save both the Active Orders/Routes and Drivers grid as the default layout for both.
Custom Order/Route/Driver Grid - Enter a name to save the custom grid as. See below on How to Save a Custom Order Grid Layout, How to Save a Custom Route Grid Layout, or
