How loaded and empty time calculations can be combined
Although it is possible to use any empty time calculation with the DPARLD and ARPLD loaded time calculations, be sure to avoid combinations that result in an overlap of empty and loaded times. Use the examples to determine how to set up combinations that meet your company's needs.
Example 1: Outside loaded and inside empty (begin and end empty separate)
BMTIN – StartMT ArvPup
Departure from billable begin empty event
to
Arrival at first pickup
1 hour
 
ARPLD – ArvPUP Deprt DRP
Arrival at first pickup
to
Departure from final drop
5.25 hours
 
EMPTIN – DeprtDRP EndMT
Departure from final drop
to
Arrival at billable end empty stop
3.5 hours
When the system calculates travel time for the order, it creates three invoice details.
Example 2: Inside loaded and outside empty (begin and end empty separate)
BMTOUT: StartMt DeprtPUP
Arrival at billable begin empty event
to
Departure time from first pickup
2.75 hours
 
DPARLD – DeprtPUP ArvDRP
Departure from first pickup
to
Arrival at final drop
4.25 hours
 
EMTOUT – ArvDRP EndMT
Arrival at final drop
to
Departure from billable end empty stop
4.75 hours
When the system calculates travel time for the order, it creates three invoice details.
Example 3: Outside loaded and inside empty (begin and end empty combined)
TOTMTI – Total Mt 4 DEPARR
Total time of all empty portions of a trip from the trip's first departure to the last arrival
Departure from billable begin empty
to
Arrival at first pickup
1 hour
Departure from final drop
to
Arrival at billable end empty stop
3.5 hours
 
ARPLD – ArvPUP DeprtDRP
Arrival at first pickup
to
Departure from final drop
5.25 hours
When the system calculates travel time for the order, it creates two invoice details: one for the loaded hours, and a second for the total empty hours.
Example 4: Inside loaded and outside empty (begin and end combined)
TOTMTO – Total Mt 4 ARRDEP
Total time of all empty portions of a trip from the trip's first arrival to the last departure
Arrival at billable begin empty
to
Departure from first pickup
2.75 hours
Arrival at final drop
to
Departure from billable end empty stop
4.75 hours
 
DPARLD – DeprtPUP ArvDRP
Departure from first pickup
to
Arrival at final drop
4.25 hours
When the system calculates travel time for the order, it creates two invoice details: one for the loaded hours, and a second for the total empty hours.
