The Operation timeline report is part of the Dock Scheduler report group, which provides a comprehensive overview of company activity in the Dock Scheduler module.
With these reports you can:
- check your warehouse performance,
- gain a full picture of how an operation was handled,
- monitor your cooperation with subcontractors.

Data source: Data comes from the Dock Scheduler module.
Data scope: Reports are based on bookings, including their number, and cover the entire process of their creation.

Based on data from the Operation timeline report:

  • you will see how a specific booking was handled,
  • you will learn the operation time for carriers and in the warehouse,
  • you will find out the overall working time across the warehouse and at individual docks,
  • you will analyze working time in the context of specific weeks, days, and hours, improving warehouse efficiency,
  • you will get a complete picture of how an operation was processed.

Navigating the Operation timeline report

To access the report, go to the BI Reports menu, select the Dock Scheduler tab, and then Operation timeline.

The report consists of 6 main sections:

  1. Date range – allows you to set the time range for the data you want to analyze.
  2. Warehouse booking count table
  3. Scheduled time vs Real Time Bookings chart – compares planned vs. actual booking times.
  4. Warehouse delay vs Carrier delay chart – compares warehouse delays with carrier delays.
  5. Carrier delay table with detailed information on carrier delays.
  6. Warehouse delay table with detailed information on warehouse delays.

Setting the data analysis range

  1. You can set the data analysis range using the filtering options available on the right side of the report.

Filter settings
In the filters you can set:
- Warehouse
- Dock,
- Carrier,
- Operation type – loading or unloading,
- Carrier delay tolerance,
- Warehouse delay tolerance.

Example 1: Carrier delay tolerance is set to 10 minutes. Suppose unloading was scheduled for 8:00. If the carrier arrives at 8:05, the report will not mark it as a delay but as an on-time arrival.





Example 2: Warehouse delay tolerance is set to 10 minutes. If loading was scheduled for 9:00 but started at 9:05, it will not be marked as a warehouse delay.


  1. At the top of the report, you can set:
  • the data display range (Date range),
When you set the tolerance time, the data in the other report sections will adjust accordingly.

Warehouse bookings count table

The table shows how many bookings were scheduled and how many were actually completed in a given warehouse.

  • The Planned column shows the number of scheduled bookings.
  • The Real column shows the number of completed bookings.

Scheduled time vs Real time chart

Above the chart you will find two values:

  • Gray value – the number of hours planned for the operation (booking),
  • Blue value – the number of hours actually taken by the operation.

The relationship between these values is presented in the bar chart.

The bar chart compares the planned booking time (gray bar) with the actual time (blue bar).

By clicking on a bar, the other report values will be filtered accordingly – this applies to both booking times and warehouse/carrier delays.

You can view additional details by hovering over a selected bar.

Warehouse delay vs Carrier delay chart

Above the chart you will find two values:

  • Red value – warehouse delays.
  • Yellow value – carrier delays.

The relationship between these values is presented in the bar chart.

The bar chart compares warehouse delays (red bar) with carrier delays (yellow bar).

You can view additional details by hovering over a selected bar.
