Available in TotalMail version 14.30+, the new automated workflow stop feature gives fleets the ability to associate more detailed descriptions (up to 10,000 characters) for each stop in the driver’s Workflow on the PeopleNet enhanced display devices. Dispatchers can include further detail in their stop descriptions, such as a stop location’s hours of operation, contact person, directions to the dock, reference numbers etc., providing a single location for drivers to see all information regarding a stop on their trip.
TMW Systems additionally announced enhancements to TotalMail version 15.10+ that include increased access to information about a driver’s cycle time availability. This feature gives dispatchers and planners using TMWSuite’s Planning worksheet the ability to not only view a driver’s current available on-duty hours but also the hours that will be available on each succeeding day of the duty cycle.
“These two integrations within TotalMail are great examples of how TMW and PeopleNet work together to increase the information available to drivers and back office personnel and increase communication between both parties,” said Kerri Tabor, PeopleNet director of integration services. “By delivering new ways for users to talk with one another, we can improve productivity and increase compliance with industry regulations.”
