Before you start

  • Jobs are scheduled or ready to schedule.
  • Crew records are active.

What you'll do

You will use dispatch to spot gaps, assign work, and keep crews from starting the day with missing job details.

Do this

  1. 1

    Open Dispatch Center

    Go to Schedule, then Dispatch Center.

  2. 2

    Start with unassigned work

    Find jobs with no crew or missing time before reviewing jobs that are already ready.

  3. 3

    Check crew load

    Compare each crew's route and job count so one team is not overloaded while another has gaps.

  4. 4

    Open problem jobs

    Use the job detail view to add missing notes, materials, customer access details, or crew assignments.

  5. 5

    Confirm field visibility

    After changes, verify the crew can see the right jobs from the crew app.

Morning dispatch checklist

  • Every job has a crew.
  • Every crew has a sensible route.
  • Customer notes and gate/access details are present.
  • Weather or cancellation changes are rescheduled before crews leave.
