Scheduler

The Scheduler is a calendar-based planning tool for managing driver shifts and order timelines. It provides the human-readable planning surface for your fleet operations, while the Orchestrator handles automated multi-phase assignments.

What the Scheduler Shows

Fleet View

A weekly calendar with one row per driver, showing:

  • Shift blocks — when each driver is on duty
  • Scheduled orders — orders assigned within each shift
  • Availability windows — gaps where new orders can be assigned

Driver View

A single-driver timeline showing:

  • Daily shifts
  • Assigned orders
  • Breaks
  • HOS (Hours of Service) status

Key Features

Shift Schedule Management

Create and manage recurring shift schedules per driver:

FieldDescription
Day of weekWhich days this shift applies
Start timeShift start time
End timeShift end time
Break durationTotal break time within the shift
RecurrenceWeekly, biweekly, or custom

Order Scheduling

  • Drag-and-drop orders onto driver rows to assign them to a shift
  • Set scheduled_at time on orders to block a specific time slot
  • View conflicts when orders overlap or exceed shift capacity

HOS Compliance

The Scheduler tracks driver Hours of Service to help operators stay compliant with transport regulations. Drivers approaching or exceeding HOS limits are highlighted visually.

Orchestrator Integration

Run the Orchestrator directly from the Scheduler view — it uses the shift windows defined here to constrain driver assignments. After the Orchestrator commits, manifests appear as ordered stop lists per driver.

Access the Scheduler via Fleet Management → Operations → Scheduler.

Configuration

Scheduling settings (default shift duration, HOS rules, timezone) are managed in Fleet Management → Settings → Scheduling.
