Understanding the Save Warnings window

The Save Warnings window informs you of conflicts when creating orders and planning trip resource assignments in Call On Demand Order Entry, Card Planner and Planning Worksheet. For example, a driver may not meet a load requirement for hazmat training. The window warns you about conflicts that can prevent or hinder you from saving an order or dispatching a trip.

The window identifies the severity of each conflict with either a PreventSave or Warn indicator.

PreventSave

Indicates that the conflict is critical. You cannot save the order. For example, a critical conflict occurs when an assigned asset:

Does not meet a Load Requirement with a must condition (Required)
Has an Expiration with a Priority 1 status
Has an available Date and Time limitation

For example, suppose a driver is active on a trip that started yesterday. The system will not allow you to start the driver on a new trip until the previous one is marked as complete. When a scheduling conflict occurs, the ErrorID column shows a description of the issue.

The columns in this illustration have been rearranged for emphasis.

Warn

Indicates that the conflict is a potential problem. You can save the order or assignment. For example, a warning occurs when an assignment does not meet:

A Load Preference with a should condition
An Expiration with a Priority 2 status (Key Date)

The columns in this illustration have been rearranged for emphasis.

By default, the system does not open the Save Warnings window when a warn condition exists. The [FuelDispatch]ShowWarnings setting in your TTS50 controls whether the window opens for a warn condition.

Viewing conflicts

If a conflict exists, do one of the following to open the Save Warnings window.
- In the Planning Worksheet or the Card Planner, click Update or select the hyperlink next to the Update button.
- In Call on Demand Order Entry, click Save.
  
  Note: In Call on Demand Order Entry, you do not receive an indication that a conflict exists until you click Save.
  
  Notes:
  - The Save Warnings window opens when a prevent save condition exists.
  - If ShowWarnings=Y in your TTS50, the Save Warnings window opens when a warn condition exists, even if a prevent save condition does not.
When the Save Warnings window opens, review the PreventSave or Warn issues listed.
