If you have several distribution centres, select the one you need in the drop-down list box to the right of the planning date.
2) The list of vehicles assigned to the selected distribution centre.
3) The Unplanned Orders section is the list of orders for the selected planning date.
4) The Map section. All Unplanned orders are shown on the Map.
5) The Planning section (Gantt chart) is the area where the orders are assigned to vehicles scheduled and displayed in a route timeline bar. Before planning is performed, the area is empty.
In order to make your scheduling procedure more comfortable you may resize or hide/open some windows on the Planning screen.
To resize the planning section and to widen or narrow the map, just hover a cursor over the bottom border of the planning section and pull it up or down.
