GLG: Telematic Asset Assignment via a Digest Email
GLG enables scheduling one-time and/or periodic emails to request dispatching drivers or vehicles for unassigned movements. Through the link provided by the email, off-network dispatchers can assign a driver or vehicle without logging into the system. It provides a means to remind and allow off-network users, who are not currently in the system, to dispatch movements. Carrier managers can schedule dispatch request emails to off-network dispatchers that include current unassigned movements. When the dispatcher receives the email, they use the URL provided in the email to open a new form to assign a driver or vehicle to any unassigned movements and submit the assignment to the system. Carrier users click the new Schedule Report button in the Unassigned detail report, which is accessed from the Dispatch Board and Vehicle Dispatch Board widgets.
