Send a job to a linked carrier
Hand a job to a carrier you're linked with on TrakkHQ, and see when they accept it.
Your linked carriers have their own rows in the Linked carriers section of the ops board.
- Book the job as normal and leave it in Unassigned. It needs a pick-up address, a drop-off address, a vehicle and a date.
- Drag the card from Unassigned onto the carrier's row, on the right day. Or open the card's ⋯ menu and choose 🔗 Send to….
- If you used the menu, pick the company under Send it to and press Send job.
- The card moves to the carrier's row and shows Waiting on the carrier until they answer.
- When they confirm, the card shows ✓ Accepted with their job number. If they say no, the job goes back to Unassigned and the card shows their reason.
Sending needs an admin or scheduler login.
Tip: the carrier's row also shows the jobs they already have booked for you, with their status.
Common questions
Why can't I see Send to… on a job's menu?
The job must be in Unassigned, not finished or cancelled, and not already sent. You also need at least one linked carrier.
It says to add the pick up address, drop off address, vehicle or date.
The carrier needs all four to book the job. Edit the job, fill in what's missing, then send it again.
Can I take a job back?
Yes, until they answer. Open the card's ⋯ menu and choose ↩ Take back. It goes back to Unassigned.
What does the carrier get?
The addresses, date, vehicle, site contacts, load, instructions and your reference. Your rates, drivers and other jobs stay with you.
