Booking and time slot management
Who can use this function?
- Function available to CargoON users with the Dock Scheduler and with access to the Schedules module.
The Dock Scheduler module is a system to manage bookings (time slots) of your warehouse and schedule loading and unloading.
The system is based on the automation of warehouse operations and focuses on the optimisation of processes on the shipper's end.
How to add time slots for the carrier?
A time slot lets the carrier reserve the date and time of the vehicle booking.
- Click More and then add a time slot.

- Fill in the required data - specify the time range, type of operation, TransId of the carrier, an available warehouse the schedule of which you want to share, place of loading and unloading.

- You can add several identical time slots at the same time. Simply change the value in the Time slots number field.

Work with flexible time slots
When creating a new warehouse, it is now easier to define a default operation time. Set the unit time, which will allow you to operate it flexibly in future planning:
- individual operation time for a new time slot
- individual operation time for a booking.
Click More and Add warehouse. In the Slot configuration you will see the changed method of setting the operation time.

- by default, operation time is set to the same value as the Basic operation time,
- if you want to edit this time and adjust it to the carrier's individual needs - the expanded options include the unit of time (slot), in this case: 15 min.
In the form for adding a new time slot, you can find the option to set a specific operation time (in brackets there is information about the default time you set when creating the warehouse).

Similarly, in the pre-booking form, you will find an editable operation time:
