Create a delivery schedule
Updated
Create a delivery schedule when a route needs a weekday wave: the depart time and, if you want, the van and the driver. Saving the card stores that weekday row; it does not start a trip.
Note
Save writes no trip. The van leaves on a delivery trip — Run a delivery trip.
How to#
To create a delivery schedule, open Ribbon → Sales → Dictionaries → Delivery schedules.
Press New. Fill Name, Route, and Weekday. Weekday is Monday through Sunday. Unspecified is refused.
Depart hour is 0–23. Depart minute is 0–59. Vehicle and Driver can stay empty. Leave Disabled empty so the row is live.
The Route lives on its own card under Ribbon → Sales → Dictionaries → Delivery routes. Pick that route here; do not look for a trip on Save.
Save. The card receives an ID and the row appears in Delivery schedules. No trip is created.
Name is required, up to 160 characters. Route and Weekday are required. Only one live (not Disabled) schedule may exist for the same Route and Weekday.
Then open Ribbon → Sales → Documents → Delivery trips. On a new trip, pick the same Route and a Delivery date that falls on this Weekday. Empty Vehicle, Driver, and Depot on that trip copy from the route, then from this weekday row. Dispatch trip stamps Planned departure from Depart hour and Depart minute.
Example
- Name North Riyadh morning run — Wed
- Route North Riyadh morning run
- Weekday Wednesday
- Depart hour 7
- Depart minute 30
- Driver Ahmed Fathy
- Vehicle RUH 4821
Save. The list shows North Riyadh morning run — Wed. A second live card for that route on Wednesday is refused.
Tip
Tick Disabled later when this weekday no longer runs: the card stays for history, and a new live row for the same Route and Weekday can save. Empty Vehicle and Driver are allowed. A trip still copies those from the route first, then from this row.
