Window overview

The Asset Assignment History window is divided into two sections:

  • Header
    The header contains look-up fields for the asset type and ID, and fields for defining a date range for the asset’s history.

  • History grid
    The History grid displays information about the selected asset over the specified date range. The information is read-only. By default, trips are listed from oldest to newest. You can sort the grid if needed.

    There are two tabs in the History grid:

    • Legs
      Each row in the Legs tab represents a trip segment, also known as a leg header.

    • Stops
      The Stops tab lists all billable and non-billable stops for each trip shown.

      Each boxed area in this illustration shows the stops for a specific trip segment. Note that the Order # column shows no order number for some stops. The column is blank to indicate that the stop is not part of an order, that is, it is non-billable. For logistical reasons, the driver traveled empty.
