Dispatch Job

A Dispatch Job represents a freight movement. Commonly used by waste brokerage companies, a dispatch job allows you to capture information in regards to the movement of freight, with the possibility of assigning it to one of your drivers to fulfill (if applicable). Although they are commonly employed by waste brokers, they can also be used with Receiving Tickets or Brokerage Worksheets in the case you are providing the freight, and need to have a record of it.

To create a new Dispatch job, you can either click the + icon next to Dispatch, or click into the Dispatch board and click + New Dispatch.

On the Dispatch form, select the Account & Location:

Once the account is selected, only the equipment with an active Service Record assigned to that Location will populate in the Equipment drop down. 

Once you select the Equipment, any dispatch notes like Requested By & Material that were staged on the Service Record will pull onto the dispatch ticket automatically. 

If you need to issue a Service Request Email, you can save this dispatch in "Dispatched" Status:

Go to More Actions>Service Request Email:

Once you receive confirmation that the job is completed or receive the final weights, you can come back into this ticket, add this information, and save this dispatch ticket in Completed status. Completed status is what alerts cieTrade that this dispatch is ready to be tied together with a Service Record on the Billing Sheet:

If you would like to copy the information from an existing dispatch job to a brand new one, you can use the  More Actions>Copy function.

Note: Only charges that are in On Call status on the Service Record will be tied to thee Dispatch Ticket on the Billing Sheet.
