Read the List
The Transports workbench shows:
- Service with the route underneath.
- State derived from actual departure and arrival.
- Driver and available contact summary.
- Pets as compact avatars.
- Dates using actual dates when recorded and estimated dates otherwise.
- Miles Covered, Total Cost and Updated, available as optional columns.
Search by service, route, or driver. Filter to one journey state and one transport method, and sort by service, mileage, cost, or recent update.
Before Departure
Open the profile and verify:
- Pickup and destination.
- Assigned driver.
- Estimated departure and arrival.
- Pets.
- The run cost, each pet's cost share, and the total.
- Internal notes.
Use Edit to correct the record.
Record Progress
- Add Actual Departure when the trip leaves. State becomes In transit.
- Add Actual Arrival when the trip reaches its destination. State becomes Completed, even when no actual departure was recorded.
The journey band and activity timeline use actual dates when they exist and estimated dates while the trip is still planned.
Costs
Each pet's cost is its share of the run, not an extra on top. The transport's total is its transport cost, or the sum of the pet shares when the run has no cost of its own. The profile shows the pet shares as a breakdown beside the total, and the journey's Settled amount, the list's highest-cost sort, and a report's transport Cost use the same total. Update these values through Edit when final expenses differ from the estimate.
Driver Statistics
Assigned transports contribute to the driver's total trips, air and ground counts, and total miles. The driver profile also shows manually maintained hours driven this week against weekly capacity.
