    1. Text Dispatch Drivers

      I'd like to be able to text dispatch the drivers, instead of e-mail. My drivers are smart, but their phones are not. Thanks Dr. D!!!!!

            • In shippers and receivers make a loading and unloading time range field (hours of operation)

              In shippers and receivers make a loading and unloading time range field (hours of operation) - have it default in the time range field when a shipper/receiver is selected

                • Multiple Rate Confirmation Templates

                  It would be neat if the system allowed users to select from different standardized Rate Conf templates. Perhaps this could be set up as a Set Up Preference under the Rate Confirmation tab; user gets to select from different template designs.

                        • Driver Trip Sheet

                          It would be great if the driver trip sheet would include the drivers pay - whether the driver is mileage- or percentage- based pay. For companies that don't utilize on-board communication (like qualcomm) but have drivers with smart phones and laptops, this would be a convenient way for them to get all pertinent dispatch info alon with their pay for the trip (or leg). Keep up the good work guys!

                          • "CANCELED" in big letters across the rate confirmation

                            I had to cancel a load to one of my carriers.I have to write "Canceled" by hand across the rate confirmation. I wish Dr. Dispatch had an option to do this.

                                      • Would have Custom Broker field

                                        For carriers/brokers that dispatch trucks to and from Canada/Mexico, custom broker info has to be forwarded to carrier or the driver. I just saw how one other US based dispatch system does it.
                                        Same way you guys have that arrow for Pick(P)/Drop(D)/Deadhead(DH)/Waypont(WPT) you could have custom Broker field (CB)?? that way it would show on confirmation and on driver sheet.
                                        It wouldnt have to have address info as people only need broker name, phone, fax, and email.
                                        I still think you guys are doing amazing job, keep up good work.

                                        • more room in the equipment status report for the FULL vehicle VIN....it leaves the last digit off of the VIN when I print a report.

                                          The Truck Status Report does not print the full Vin for all of the vehicles. It cuts the last VIN number off of most of our vehicles.
