Dispatch board

The whole operation.
One live board.

Every booking, coach and driver in one place — by day, as a board, on a timeline, on the map, by week or by month. Drag a job onto a crew and Transitour checks, before it lets you, that the vehicle is free, the driver is licensed and nobody goes over their hours.

Why it matters

A calendar shows what's booked. A dispatch board shows what can run.

Blocking time on a calendar says nothing about whether the coach is in the garage, the driver's medical has lapsed or the group has outgrown the vehicle. Transitour runs those checks on every assignment, so what you see on the board is an operation that can actually happen.

What you get
01

Six views, one source

Day, board, timeline, map, week and month. The planning timeline stretches to two weeks, a month or three months, so you can plan capacity well ahead.

02

Drag to crew

Drop a booking onto a vehicle and a driver. Availability, licence category, documents, time off and seats are checked as you do it.

03

Honest about hours

If an assignment would take a driver past a daily or weekly cap you're warned before it's saved — assign anyway if you have a good reason.

04

Empty running counted

Depot pull-out and pull-in are part of each job's time window, so back-to-back work that can't physically fit is caught before the day.

05

Live map

Trips in progress from the driver app's GPS — plus parked and idling coaches when Samsara is connected.

06

Fleet capacity at a glance

See how many vehicles of each type are free per day before you accept a big group or a long tour.

    Waiting time, tolls and receipts come back from drivers for approval before they're invoiced.

Questions

Straight answers.

01

Can several dispatchers work on the board at once?

Yes. Every office user works from the same board, and users are unlimited on every account.

02

Does the board handle recurring work like school runs?

Recurring trips — daily, weekly or fortnightly, with exceptions — generate bookings onto the board with their preferred vehicle and driver, and auto-planning treats those as standing arrangements.

03

What stops a dispatcher using an expired vehicle or driver?

Every assignment checks the driver's licence category, licence, driver CPC and medical dates, time off and shifts, and the vehicle's downtime and seats. Hour caps show as a warning you can override.

04

Is there a guide to the dispatch board?

Yes — our step-by-step guide walks through the views and the daily routine. It's linked just below.
