Ask Confirmation When Assigning Bills to Multiple Trips

When this option is set to 'True' and a User attempts to add a Freight Bill to a Trip when it is currently assigned to another, the system will prompt the User to confirm their course of action. When set to 'False', no prompt will appear to warn the user- the Freight Bill will simply be added to the second Trip.

Note: This option affects the assignment of Freight Bills in any application that can assign a Freight Bill to a Trip, meaning the Dispatch program, City Dispatch, Local Dispatch and CrossDock programs, as well as the Manifest Maintenance and City Dispatch Check-In programs.

Assign Team Driver

When set to 'True', automatically assigns 'Team Driver' as the second Driver on the selected trip. Default is set at 'False'.

Assign Trip Template Carrier By Each Leg

The default value for this option is 'True'. In which case, at the time a carrier is assigned to a trip template, pick/drop entries will be created on each leg. If on the other hand, the option is set to 'False', then at the time of assignment only one pickup will be created at the very first occurrence of the carrier and one drop at the very last occurrence of the carrier on the trip.

Auto Asgn Curr Trip

When set to 'True' the Dispatch program will auto-assign any resources allocated to the current Trip.

Auto Assign Trailer

This option is used to automatically assign a Trailer Code that has been added into one of the 10 available User Defined fields in the TLORDER Table. The user must configure one of the Application Configurator program > CSERV.EXE > 'User Field 1 - User Field 10' options with a specific label ("Dispatch Trailer" for example), and then enter the Trailer ID code into that User Field when creating the Freight Bill. The User will then enter the User Field as the value for this config. The program will then behave as follows:

If the value for this option is a 'USER2' field, when a Freight Bill is assigned to a Trip, check to see if the field TLORDER.USER2 is populated with a valid Trailer ID. If it is, then the Dispatch program will automatically populate the LEGSUM.LS_TRAILER1 field with that Trailer ID. There are some further conditions of note:

Note: It is a good idea to disable the 'Auto Match Trailer' option (below) if you plan to use this functionality.

Auto Match Chassis

Default is set at 'Ask'. Valid values are True, False, and Ask. Setting this function to 'Ask' means that a confirming dialog box will appear before matching this item with assigned items. Setting this function to 'True' enables multiple items to be assigned to multiple legs. For example, when you create a trip and setup the legs in dispatch, the Chassis assigned will be assigned to all of the legs in the trip. Setting this function to 'False' allows you to assign different a Chassis to different legs of the trip.

Auto Match Container

Default is set at 'Ask'. Valid values are True, False, and Ask. Setting this function to 'Ask' means that a confirming dialog box will appear before matching this item with assigned items. Setting this function to 'True' enables multiple items to be assigned to multiple legs. For example, when you create a trip and setup the legs in dispatch, the Container assigned will be assigned to all of the legs in the trip. Setting this function to 'False' allows you to assign different Containers to different legs of the trip.

Auto Match Driver

Default is set at 'Ask'. Valid values are True, False, and Ask.

Setting this function to 'Ask' means that a confirming dialog box will appear before matching this item with assigned items. Setting this function to 'True' enables multiple items to be assigned to multiple legs. For example, when you create a trip and setup the legs in dispatch, the Driver assigned will be assigned to all of the legs in the trip. Setting this function to 'False' allows you to assign different Drivers to different legs of the trip.

Auto Match Misc. Equipment

Default is set at 'Ask'. Valid values are True, False, and Ask. Setting this function to 'Ask' means that a confirming dialog box will appear before matching this item with assigned items. Setting this function to 'True' enables multiple items to be assigned to multiple legs. For example, when you create a trip and setup the legs in dispatch, the Misc. Equipment assigned will be assigned to all of the legs in the trip. Setting this function to 'False' allows you to assign different Misc. Equipment to different legs of the trip.

Auto Match Pwr Unit

Default is set at 'Ask'. Valid values are True, False, and Ask. Setting this function to 'Ask' means that a confirming dialog box will appear before matching this item with assigned items. Setting this function to 'True' enables multiple items to be assigned to multiple legs. For example, when you create a trip and setup the legs in dispatch, the Power Unit assigned will be assigned to all of the legs in the trip. Setting this function to 'False' allows you to assign different Power Units to different legs of the trip.

Auto Match Trailer

Default is set at 'Ask'. Valid values are True, False, and Ask. Setting this function to 'Ask' means that a confirming dialog box will appear before matching this item with assigned items. Setting this function to 'True' enables multiple items to be assigned to multiple legs. For example, when you create a trip and setup the legs in dispatch, the Trailer assigned will be assigned to all of the legs in the trip. Setting this function to 'False' allows you to assign different Trailers to different legs of the trip.

Auto-Match

When set to 'True', automatically matches selected resources to subsequent trips. Available values are: 'True', 'False', and 'Ask'. Default is set at 'True'.

Blankout Filter Time

Sets the number of seconds before a quick find entry clears. Enter a number between '0' and '300'. Default is '0' which indicates the quick find will not blank out automatically.

Btch Load Sort Dlvrs

When set to 'True', Dispatch will sort Batch Load Offers by number of Deliveries. Default is set to 'True'.

Calculate Distance of Vendor Load Summary Instantly on Trips Generated From Trip Template

This is a 'True', 'False' kind of option. If set to the default value of 'False', when a trip is generated from a trip template, the distance will be calculated based on the summary of leg distances on the trip. On the other hand, if this option is set to 'True', mile server will be connected to get the distance of Vendor Load Summary.

Calculate ETA by FB PickUpByEnd

When set to 'True', the TLORDER.PICK_UP_BY_END date/time value will be populated into the 'Departure Time' field of the Dispatch program’s ETA Calculator window. When set to 'False' (default), the TLORDER.PICK_UP_BY date/time value will be used.

Calculate Mileage for LTL Trips

When set to 'True', Trips assigned to Routes will have mileage calculated. Default is set at 'False'.

Carrier Accept

If you enter a status code in this field (as configured in the Codes Maintenance program), when you assign an Interliner to a freight bill using the Carrier option in the Dispatch program, the status code entered here will become the freight bill’s current status (as displayed on the Summary tab in the Customer Service program) upon Carrier Accept. Note that this status will not affect the freight bill’s status in the Dispatch program, or the status of the trip to which the freight bill is assigned.

Carrier Accept Comment

When set to True, users will be required to include a comment upon assigning a carrier.

Carrier Assign

If you enter a status code in this field (as configured in the Codes Maintenance program), when you assign an interliner to a freight bill using the Carrier option in the Dispatch program, the status code entered here will become the freight bill’s current status (as displayed on the Summary tab in the Customer Service program).

Note: This status will not affect the freight bill’s status in the Dispatch program, or the status of the trip to which the freight bill is assigned.

Carrier Assignment - use direct mileage lookup

The default value for this option is 'False'. If set to 'True' the system will update the mileage value from direct call to MileServer as opposed to rolling up sum from legsum fields.

Carrier Best Choice

Default is set at 'False'. Setting this function to 'True' will allow your system to automatically calculate the best carrier choice when in the carrier module.

Carrier Deassign

If you enter a status code in this field (as configured in the Codes Maintenance program), when you de-assign an interliner from a freight bill using the Carrier option in the Dispatch program, the status code entered here will become the freight bill’s current status (as displayed on the Summary tab in the Customer Service program). Note that this status will not affect the freight bill’s status in the Dispatch program, or the status of the trip to which the freight bill is assigned.

Carrier Deassign Comment

When set to True, users will be required to include a comment upon de-assigning a carrier.

Carrier Driver Med Exp Required

Available values for this option are 'True' and 'False' (the default value). If set to 'True' then the Medical expiration dates will be required for any driver added as a resource in the 'Carrier Information Window'.

Carrier411 Skip Check if the Carrier is Given a Satisfactory Rating

Available values are 'False', which is the default value, and 'True', which if selected will have the system skip checking the SMS score of a carrier if that carrier gets a 'Satisfactory' rating by the 'FMCSA'.

CarrierAssign Close On Assign

When this option is set to 'True', the Dispatch program > Carrier Information window will close automatically after a Carrier is assigned (i.e. when the User selects the 'Assign Carrier' button), instead of jumping to the Carrier Assign > Payments Tab. Default is set at 'False'.

CarrierAssign Find Near

Normally, when a User double-clicks a blank 'Carrier' field in the Dispatch program, the Carrier Information window appears. When this option is 'True' and a User double-clicks a blank 'Carrier' field, the Find Near window appears instead (so that the User can locate an appropriate Carrier for the Trip). Default is set at 'False'.

CarrierBuy First

When this option is set to 'True' and a user accesses the Find Near window of the Dispatch program, the Carrier Buy Tab will be displayed by default.

CarrierBuy MargCalc

In the Trip grid in the Dispatch program, there’s a right click mouse function labeled Drill Down. Once at the Drill Down screen, you have the option to change the status of an item. For each status change, a confirming dialog box appears. Setting this function to 'False' will suppress the confirming dialog box from appearing for each status change.

Deassign Bills from Original Trip after Docking the Trip in Pre-Plan Doubles

In Dispatch, when Pre-Plan doubles on two trips, and if the Merge Zone is identical to Trip’s From Zone, the trip will be docked.

The default value is set to False. When the value is False, the freight bill will be kept on the active leg of the trip when docking the trip. When the value is set to True, the freight bill will be de-assigned from the active leg of the trip when docking the trip.

Default Carrier Tab

This option controls which Tab on the Find Near window will be selected by default when the 'Find Near' option is selected in the Dispatch program. Acceptable values are as follows:

Default Date

If you set the Value for this Option to 'True', when you assign a status code to a trip (in the Dispatch program) that is of the Pick Up Behavior Category (as configured in the Codes Maintenance program), the Pick Up By date for the freight bill will default as the status change date. When you assign a status code to a trip that is of the Delivery Behavior Category, the Deliver By date for the freight bill will default as the status change date.

Default Drop Status

The Status Code entered as the value for this option will become the default 'Drop' Status in a Doubles scenario. Valid values for this option are any Status Code with the 'DOCKING' Code Behavior. Default is set at 'DOCKED'.

Driver Pay by Trip

If this value is set to 'True', drivers will be paid based on all mileage on the trip, not just mileage on the trip legs to which he is assigned.

If this value is set to 'False', mileage pay will only be generated for mileage amount on trip legs to which this driver was assigned. This option only applies to drivers whose contracts are of the Mileage type (as configured in the Driver Pay Contracts program).

Driver Pay Popup

When set to 'True', the Driver Pay window will prompt you for Driver Pay information whenever a Driver is deassigned. Default is set at 'False'.

Driver Pay Popup Bes

Driver Pay on MT Legs

When set to 'True', the program will pay Drivers for Empty Leg completions by default. Default is set at 'True'.

Enable FB Cancel

When set to 'True', enables the cancellation of a Freight Bill from within the Dispatch drill-down menu. Default is set at 'False'.

Enable IP Protected

If this option is set to 'True', the 'Protect' checkbox in the Carrier form of the Dispatch program will be checked by default.

Enforce Stop Use

When Enforce Stop Use is set to True and the Stop Use in SPEvent is also set to True, the resource with the Special Event will not be able to be assigned to a Trip. The logic also takes into account the setting of the SE Warning Level option. The default option is set False.

Note: The Enforce Stop Use configuration is only applicable to resources such as Power Units, Drivers, Trailers, etc. The Enforce Stop Use configuration is not applicable to the Assign Carrier function for vendor resource type special events. If the Assign Carrier function is applied, then Enforce Stop Use=True in the Spevent for Vendor will display a warning. Only users with Supervisor rights are allowed to assign the Vendor.

FB Deassign Prompt

If this option is set to 'True', users will be required to enter a reason when they de-assign a freight bill from a trip or cancel a trip with assigned freight bills in the Dispatch program. The reason can be viewed on the Status tab in the Customer Service program.

FB Position Update

When performing a Drill-Down status change ('Arrive Consignee' for example) on an individual bill, all other bills on the same leg will have a 'Position' entry in the status history of each bill to indicate a movement. This option allows the user to control this. To allow the default behavior to take place, leave this option at the default value of 'True'. Or, prevent this from happening, and have an entry ONLY for the changed bill by setting this option to 'False'.

FBI Cancel Truck

If this config is set to 'True', the Dispatch program will search for any un-cancelled truck-type FBI postings for the Power Unit attached to a Trip and prompt the user whether they wish to cancel the FBI posting (if dispatcher found a load for the truck, then he may click 'Yes'; but if the freight board posting is future-dated and has nothing to do with the current trip assignment, then he may click 'No').

See the Freight Board Interface program > Auto Cancel Postings section for more information.

Fixed Dest

When set to 'True', sets optimization to use Fixed Destinations for deliveries. Default is set at 'False'.

Force Optimization

When set to 'True', forces optimization when Freight Bills are assigned to Trips. Default is set at 'False'.

GeoFenceStopEtd

This option controls how the Estimated Time of Delivery on GeoFenced Stops is determined. The following integer values are accepted:

High Value Warning

When set to 'True', displays a warning when using a Freight Bill with a high value. Default is set at 'False'.

Inter-Company Trip Status Changes:

The following options control the behavior of Status Changes to Trips when a Trip is linked between two companies in the database (i.e. if you want Trip status changes to go from Company 2 to Company 1). The logic for this process assumes that Company 1 has assigned a Vendor ID from Company 2 as a Carrier on a Trip, and one Freight Bill has been created for each leg of the Trip. As the Freight Bills from the Trip in Company 2 are 'PICKD' or 'DELVD', the Trip status will be updated in Company 1.

Note: These configuration values need to be based on the Company that is getting the status updates, not on the Company the status updates are being applied to manually by Dispatchers.

IC Copy Detail Lines

This option determines whether detail lines are to be copied at the time of intercompany freight bill creation. There are two choices: "Copy without rating", and "Do not Copy" (this will be the TruckMate default value, implying that no Detail Line copying is to take place at time of creating the intercompany transfer freight bill).

If the "Copy without rating" value is selected, when an intercompany transfer freight bill is to be created, TruckMate will copy all the detail lines with all their details and information from the original freight bill. However, TruckMate will as well set the copied detail lines to be manually rated and set the Sub Total column (TLDTL.SUB_COST) to 0. This will allow the detail lines to be saved without automatically calling the standard TruckMate rating procedures.

Keep in mind that the current functionality that automatically creates a new detail line and associates it to the new intercompany transfer freight bill to track the interline charges will continue to exist. The intermodal base cost will continue being placed into the Charges field of the new detail line belonging to the new intercompany transfer freight bill. But in addition, the detail lines from the original freight bill will be copied to the new intercompany transfer freight bill for referencing purposes only (not for rating). Note that there will be no synchronization between the two freight bills of the two companies after the intercompany transfer freight bill has been created. In other words, if after creation, a user modifies the detail lines of one freight bill, the detail lines of the other freight bill will not change.

IC Copy Trace

This option will copy specified trace types at the time of intercompany freight bill creation. For example, if you want to copy B, C, and D type trace numbers, the value for this option should be 'BCD'. The default value for this variable is empty (implying that no trace number copying is to take place).

IC Trip Arrive Consignee Status

This option is used to select the 'Arrive Consignee' Status code that will apply to Company 1 (the originating company) Trip when the linked (Inter-Company) Trip in Company 2 (the working company) has the 'Arrive Consignee' status applied. Default is set at ' ' (no Inter-Company Pickup Status update). A valid value would be any 'Arrive Consignee' type status code (as listed in the drop down list).

IC Trip Delivery Status

This option is used to select the 'Delivery' Status code that will apply to the Company 1 Trip when the linked (Inter-Company) Trip in Company 2 has a 'Delivery' status applied. Default is set at 'False' (no Inter-Company Delivery Status update). A valid values is any 'Delivery' type status code.

Note: If the Inter-Company Carrier is not assigned to last leg of the Trip, then the Trip in Company 1 will be given a 'Terminal' status, rather than 'Delivery'.

IC Trip Depart Shipper Status

This option is used to select the 'Depart Shipper' Status code that will apply to Company 1 (the originating company) Trip when the linked (Inter-Company) Trip in Company 2 (the working company) has the 'Depart Shipper' status applied. Default is set at ' ' (no Inter-Company Pickup Status update). A valid value would be any 'Depart Shipper' type status code (as listed in the drop down list).

IC Trip Pick Status

This option is used to select the 'Pickup' Status code that will apply to the Company 1 Trip when the linked (Inter-Company) Trip in Company 2 has a 'Pickup' status applied. Default is set at ' ' (no Inter-Company Pickup Status update). A valid value would be any 'Pickup' type status code (as listed in the drop down list).

IC Trip Status Change

This value toggles the Inter-Company Trip Status Change behaviors described above (and in the 'IC Trip Delivery / Pick / Terminal Status' options). Default is set at 'False', but the user must set this option to 'True' in order to enable the Inter-Company Status Change functionality.

IC Trip Terminal Status

This option is used to select the 'Terminal' Status code that will apply to the Company 1 Trip when the linked (Inter-Company) Trip in Company 2 has a 'Terminal' status applied. Default is set at 'False' (no Inter-Company Terminal Status update). A valid values is any 'Terminal' type status code.

Interline Cost Rule

The value specified here determines the default value of the Cost Allocation Rule in the Carrier section of the Dispatch program (accessed from the Trip Grid context menu). Use the drop down list to select the value which you want to be shown as the default cost allocation rule.

Interline Vendor Inf

This setting, when set to 'True', will allow Carrier / Vendor information to be updated via the Carrier Assign window. When set to 'False' the cannot edit Carrier info, and will have to remove then re-attach the edited Carrier. Default is set at 'True'.

Interliner Round Trip End Zone

This option has two possible values, 'Leave as-is' which is the default value, in which case the 'End Zone' for the round trip will be the same as the 'Start Zone', and the second value is 'Override With Bills End Zone' in which case the 'End Zone' for the interliner trip will be matched with the 'End Zone' in the freight bill.

Keep Trip Open

When set to 'True', a Trip will stay in 'Active' status, even after it has reached a 'DELVD' (Delivered) state. Default is set at 'False'.

Leave Items on Board for Unmatch

When set to 'True', items will be left 'On Board' when unmatching a specific resource. Default is set at 'False'.

Leg Start for Picks

When set to 'True', forces current zone to be the 'Leg Start' value for pickups. Default is set at 'False'.

Load Offer Leg Sort

When set to 'True', sorts the Load Offers on the Trip Leg sequence. Default is set at 'True'.

Load Offer Trigger Status

This option takes as its value a standard Dispatch program Status Code. When a Trip is set to this Status Code in the Dispatch program, the App Config option will trigger an automatic Load Offer to be generated (it inserts a 'load offer' placeholder message into the MESSAGE_FORWARD Table when a trip is set to the specified status). The message details contained in the Load Offer are pulled via the TruckMate API.

The default value for this config is 'blank' (no auto-generation of Load Offers).

Load To Go No Offer

When set to 'True', will disable 'Loaded to go' Load Offers. Default is set at 'False'.

Maintain Linkage

Used to maintain resource linkage. The default value is set at 'True', and valid values are False, True, and Auto.

Manifest Report Output Path

This option is used to specify the system path into which the Manifest Report file that is generated for the purposes of emailing will be saved. Enter a valid hard drive location.

Match Equipment from FB to Trip

When matching freight bill on a trip in dispatch, if this option is set to 'True', TruckMate will also match the equipment on the trip. If this option is set to 'True' and the equipment is already on a trip when the matching is done, a warning will be issued. Users can still match equipment to trips, but if this option is set to 'True' and there is no matching equipment class between what’s on a freight bill and what’s on the selected trip, a warning will be issued and users will be asked whether to proceed or not.

Max Containers per Leg (renamed from Trip to Leg)

Sets the Maximum number of Containers allowed to be assigned to a trip leg in the Dispatch program. Enter any whole integer value to change the option. Default is set at 2.

Max Drivers per Leg (renamed from Trip to Leg)
