The dispatch board

Every trip your fleet runs, on one screen — who drove what, for whom, and whether it is paid.

Haulva dispatch board in use
The actual dispatch board — trip ledger with dates, customers, containers, drivers and proof-of-delivery

A ledger, not a calendar

Dispatchers think in trips, not time slots. The board lists each trip as a row: date, customer, container number, driver, vehicle, advance paid, amount settled, proof-of-delivery status, and a notes field for everything that does not fit elsewhere. Newest trips on top; nothing is more than one scroll away.

Find anything fast

Filter by date range, customer, driver, vehicle or trip status. A dispatcher answering "where is container TGHU 482910?" types the number and gets the trip, the driver and the current status — no scrolling through a month of rows.

Add a trip in seconds

The add-trip form asks for what dispatch actually knows at booking time: customer, pickup and delivery points, container, vehicle and driver. The rest — costs, POD, settlement — fills in as the trip happens. A trip can be created before a driver is assigned and claimed later.

Bring the plan you already have

You rarely start from an empty board. Import a week's dispatch plan from Excel: the importer maps your columns to Haulva's fields and shows every row before anything is saved, so a typo in a container number gets caught at import time, not at the port. Export works the same way — the full filtered ledger to Excel for the accountant, the customer, or your own archive.

Costs follow the trip

Each trip carries its own costs: fuel, tolls, port fees, driver advance. The cost-allocation tool splits shared costs across the trips of a day or a vehicle, so month-end no longer means rebuilding the numbers from receipts. Finance reads the same rows dispatch wrote — there is no second spreadsheet to reconcile.

Limits worth knowing

  • The dispatch board is one shared view per company — there are no per-dispatcher private boards.
  • Excel import maps columns you confirm each time; there is no saved import template yet.
  • The interface is Vietnamese. Trips, customers and notes can be entered in any language.
  • Deleting a trip is restricted to administrators; dispatchers cancel instead, so the record stays.
