- Ship Date and Delivery Date: These columns display the pickup and delivery dates of shipments, utilizing a unique logic to showcase appointment dates and actual pickup and delivery dates through the use of icons. The columns will adhere to the following logic:
-
Pickup Shipment Dates: Pickup Ready Date (Default) → Pickup appointment date (Overwrites Previous) → Actual Pickup Date (Overwrites All)
-
Delivery Shipment Dates: Estimated Delivery Date (Default) → Delivery appointment date (Overwrites Previous) → Actual Delivery Date (Overwrites All)
-
Icons will be displayed in the system based on the availability of certain dates in the shipment.
-
If only the Pickup Ready Date and Estimated Delivery Date are available, no icon will be shown.
-
However, if there is an appointment date in the shipment, a Calendar icon with a Check Mark will be displayed.
-
Additionally, a Circle icon with a Check Mark will be shown if there is an actual arrival date in the shipment.
-
You also have the option to include columns for Origin First - Opening Time, Origin First - Closing Time, Destination Last - Opening Time, and Destination Last - Closing Time. These columns function similarly to the Ship Date and Delivery Date columns, showing times based on whether there is a scheduled appointment or the actual pickup or delivery time.
