A guide to initiating your first dispatch run in Blink, navigating the dispatch tab, reviewing booking details in the Vehicle Panel, selecting the vehicles, creating a new run using the Runs Panel, entering run details and allocating a driver.
Dispatching your first run
Now you have some vehicles to dispatch.
We can Quick Allocate or Drag and Drop:
Alternatively,
- Select the dispatch tab in the nav bar.
- You'll see your booking on the left hand side. We call this the Vehicle Panel. You'll see the relevant details entered. You can also see more information by hovering your mouse over the various data in the column.
- To dispatch, select the checkbox on the left hand side.
- Select the Create New Run Button on the far right hand side. We call this the Runs Panel.
- The Run Form will then appear. Enter the details, including the team member you'd like to assign it to. Hit the purple plus icon, and you're done!
- Your run is created. Your team member will be notified, and you can track the collection and deliveries as they complete them.
