Tasks

Assignments for drivers, with the stops they must reach.

Dispatchers and Fleet Admins can create and edit tasks. Fleet Viewers can only look.

Four statuses

Status	Meaning
Scheduled	Created, not yet started
Running	Being worked on
Done	All stops complete
Cancelled	Stopped

Late is not a status of its own — it is a flag that can attach to either a scheduled or a running task, once its estimated arrival time has passed.

Creating a task

Field	Note
Title	What has to be done
Driver	Chosen from the driver list
Vehicle	Optional
Priority	Low, normal, or high
Address	Becomes the first stop
Estimated arrival	The basis for the late flag
Notes	Information for the driver

Stops

One task can carry several stops in sequence. Each is ticked off when complete, and progress shows as "3 of 5".

Break long work into stops, not into many tasks

One task with five stops gives the dispatcher one row to watch. Five separate tasks give five rows whose order they have to reconstruct themselves.

Filtering the list

Tabs above the list filter by status, each showing its count: all, running, late, and done.

The late tab is the one dispatchers open most — open it first every morning.

Automatic refresh

The task list refreshes itself periodically, so you do not have to reload the page to see the latest state.
