The Schedule Board: Week, Month, and Dock Board Views of Your Appointments
Planning views live on their own page: the Schedule board. See the week (or a single day) laid out by door and time, scan a whole month, or watch today’s dock board door by door. Working the appointments themselves still happens in Appointments.
The Schedule board is the planning face of your warehouse console — open it from Schedule & capacity → Schedule board. It shows the same appointments as the Appointments page, laid out for looking ahead rather than for answering requests. It has three views of its own, switched by the tabs at the top of the page: Week, Month and Dock board. The views keep no separate data: a status you see here is the same status everywhere, from the same live source.
Week view: the week by door and time#
The Week tab is the default view. It lays the week out as a grid of doors and times, so you can see at a glance which door has whom in which slot, where the day is packed, and where a gap is free. Inside this view you can narrow to a single Day and step backwards and forwards with the previous/next controls — Day suits running today hour by hour; Week suits the morning huddle and shift planning. Click an appointment block to open its detail panel; the panel’s header links onward to the full appointment page.
Month view: scan ahead#
- Switch to the Month tab. Step between months with the arrow buttons, or press Today to come back to the current month.
- Each day cell shows that day’s first few appointments (time and appointment number). Click an appointment to open its detail page.
- Click the date itself to open the Appointments list pinned to exactly that day — the way to see a busy day in full when the cell only shows the first few.
Dock board: today, door by door#
The Dock board tab shows today only: for each door, who is at the door now, who is next, and whether the door is free now or free all day — with an “Earlier today” line for what already finished, and a note when a door has no more appointments today. A colour key at the top explains the colours. The board refreshes itself as the day moves (and its on-screen times stay current), and the Refresh button pulls the latest state on demand; the “Updated” stamp tells you how fresh what you are looking at is. Click any line to select that appointment and see its details. The board is made to stay open on a big screen on the floor or at the duty desk.
Looking here, working there#
These three views are for looking and planning. They do not confirm, move, or decline appointments, and appointments cannot be dragged to a new time here. When you spot something that needs action, follow it into the appointment itself: open its detail page (every view links there) to confirm, propose a new time, decline, or change its door — or go to Appointments and work the Inbox, where requests wait for your answer. What you change there shows up here immediately, because both pages read the same live appointments.
On your phone#
On a phone you can open the Schedule board and check the week, the month, or today’s doors, just as on a computer — the week grid narrows to the day you pick. For the work itself, the phone path is the same as the desktop one: follow the appointment into its detail page, or work the Inbox in Appointments one by one.
