The Time slots report belongs to the Dock Scheduler report group and is based on data obtained from a module with the same name

 The data presented in the report applies to all warehouses (you can select a warehouse using the filters). You can also use filters to specify the period for which you would like to see the data.

Based on data from the Time slots report:

  • You will check how bookings have been created in your warehouses.
  • you will analyze the use of time slots,
  • you will see how often carriers use time slots,
  • you will find out which days and times most bookings are made.

To access the report, click on the BI Reports module, open the Dock Scheduler tab, and then select the Time slots report.

The report consists of 6 main sections:

  1. The top bar with a legend, where you will also set the range of analyzed data.
  2. Number of time slots & bookings charts - showing the number of time slots, bookings and ways to create them.
  3. Table with the summary of the number of time slots in all warehouses and ramps.
  4. Carriers chart - with information on the time slots used by carriers.
  5. Calendar showing the number of bookings per specific day and time.
  6.  List of time slots from all warehouses.

Table - time slots by warehouse

The table presents detailed data on time slots in individual warehouses and ramps. This allows you to see which time slots are used most often in each warehouse.

The parameters at the top of the table will help you select the range of analyzed data - you can view the data for all warehouses or select specific ones from the list. Similarly, you will specify the range for ramps.

The columns present the following data:

  • Created TS - number of created time slots,
  • TS without booking - number of time slots for which no booking was made,
  • TS with booking - number of time slots for which a booking was created,
  • %TS Booked - percentage of time slots used for bookings,
  • Booking without TS - bookings created outside time slots.

Click on a warehouse or ramp to adapt the entire report to your selection.
