PLEASE NOTE: A ticket number will be created automatically.

  • In the "To" field, Enter where the delivery is going.

  • The "Centre" field will automatically be filled by the default sales centre. This provides sales analysis for the accounts department. This can be changed if required.
  • In the "Quantity" field, enter the amount of multiples of the rate you wish to charge for the job e.g. if you wish to charge £100, a rate of 25 multiplied by 4 you would enter 4.00 here and have 25.00 in the rate.
  • In the "Rate" field, enter the rate charged for this job.
  • The "Nett" field shows the nett (before tax) total. This is worked out by multiplying the rate by the quantity.
  • In the "Driver" field, enter the code for the driver.
  • In the "Vehicle" field, enter the code for the vehicle.
  • In the "Trailer" field, enter the code for the trailer.
  • The "Status" field is used to denote the progress of the job, e.g. 'RTI' - Ready to Invoice. A colour can be connected to the ticket status to allow for easier viewing of progress of jobs on the Planning screen.
  • The "Analysis" allows you to enter one of three single character codes to allow for more reporting breakdown on tickets if required.
Tip: Be sure to fill in as much information as possible as this will make for a more detailed Job Ticket.
