Schedule Info

The Schedule Info tab enables you to record and review details about schedules. Entering an extra trip defaults all information from the schedule. You may change any of the data on an extra trip prior to dispatcher signoff.

Tip: To limit the display of information in the grid and maximize performance, use the filter. You can sort on schedule ID, trip ID, from/to date, trip date, dispatcher/assistant dispatcher signoff, status, location ID, consist ID, and route ID. Departure time and destination time may be added to the filter dialog using Administrator mode.
