Overview
The Truck Load Module is used to provide greater accountability for assets loaded and unloaded from trucks. Situations can be caught where, for example, an asset is loaded onto a truck, but neither delivered during the run nor scanned off the truck at the end of the day.
The basic mechanics of the Truck Load Module:
- Assets are scanned onto a truck using one or more Load truck actions (Mobile Device)
- The driver selects his truck in a Pre-Trip action (Optional/Mobile Device)
- Compare Truck Inventory to Orders Make any correction if needed (Optional/ AWS Page: Truck Inventory Report)
- Sync mobile device if not wireless
- Create Truck Manifest (Optional)
- The driver makes deliveries (Deliver/Return) (Mobile Device)
- The assets left on the truck at the end of the day are scanned off the truck using one or more Unload Truck actions (Mobile Device)
- Sync mobile device if not wireless
- After a truck run the Truck Load Reconciliation page will point out problems where assets disappeared from the truck or were found on the truck (Web Site)
Setup
- You must have Locations set up as Location Type = Truck
- Internal users must have Rugged And Simulator access, and also must be marked as a Truck Driver. (If you don't have an option to mark users as Truck Drivers, then contact TrackAbout Support to enable the Truck Load/Unload feature.)
