Summary

The summary section provides a snapshot of the critical details Suppliers need to monitor including numbers and percentages of scheduled deliveries, deliveries in route, and tanks approaching runout. 

Carrier Generated Orders

Orders in this grid have been created by the Carrier. Depending on the company workflow, these orders may have been created within Titan Logistics, uploaded in bulk, or generated via API integration.

Status

The Status column contains the following color-coded indicators based on the ETA and the Carrier Order Status:

• Green: ETA > 1 hour remaining and the Carrier Order Status is Scheduled, Dispatched, or Delivered.
• Orange: ETA < 1 hour remaining and the Carrier Order Status is Scheduled, Dispatched, Late, or Diverted
• Red: ETA has passed and the Carrier Order Status is NOT Delivered
• Gray: None of the above.

Hover your cursor over the indicator to see the specific Carrier Order Status.

Chat

To initiate a chat with the Carrier about a specific order, click the Chat icon. A chat window will appear at the bottom right of the page. 

If you have received a new message, you'll see a green notification dot next to the Chat icon and see the most recent message in the Last Comment column.

Issue Recon

In a future state, if issues are identified, users can click the Red X to open the order in the Weekly Scorecard. 

 

Unaccounted Orders

Orders in this grid have been generated by the Titan Logistics forecasting engine, but do not match actual orders created by the Carrier.

Priority

The color-coded indicators in the Priority column are retrieved from driver shift availability setup for the forecasting engine. 

• Red- Must Go:  Runout will occur if the delivery is not made in the CURRENT shift.
• Yellow- Should Go: Runout will occur if the delivery is not made in the NEXT shift.
• Green- Could Go: Compartment/FTL can fit without a retain. 

Notify Carrier

To alert the carrier about one or more Unaccounted Orders, scroll to the right until you reach the Action column. Select the desired order(s) and click the Followup button. 

This will email the Carrier with a request for updates. 

Weekly Scorecard

While the CCD provides dispatch visibility at the daily level, the Weekly Scorecard provides an editable report on how the Carrier has performed over the past week. Suppliers and Carriers can make clarifying edits and updates for up to four weeks, at which time the Scorecard is locked.

Filter & Summary

The Weekly Scorecard features the same Filter and Summary sections as the CCD, which may be expanded or collapsed with the arrow in the top right corner. 

Recon Items

Recon grids are organized into categories: Inventory Recon, Delivery Recon, and Lift Recon.

Inventory Recon

• Runout Event: Flagged events where the tank was running below runout level before the carrier delivery
• Low Level Event: Flagged events where the tank was running below a supplier-designated threshold for a specified duration.
• Ceiling Cap Breached: Flagged events where the tank inventory went beyond a set ceiling level after the carrier delivery
  • Suppliers can set the ceiling level individually for different product types
• Cross Drop Event: Flagged events where the carrier delivery resulted in a cross drop (i.e. wrong product put into the tank)

Delivery Recon

• Overfill: Flagged events where a tank is filled over a specified threshold value after delivery
  • Suppliers set a single threshold value for all product types
• Delivered Quantity Variance (DQV): Flagged events where the carrier has delivered a different amount than what was reported on the order by a specified margin threshold.
• Late Delivery: Flagged events where the drop start time is after the order ETA.
• Product Shortage: Flagged events where the delivery is less than the BOL volume and greater than a specified threshold amount.
• Missing Load Details: Flagged events where orders have been marked as delivered without complete delivery details provided
• Missing Load: Flagged events where a delivery has been detected but no corresponding delivery has been entered by the carrier within a specified timeframe.
• Carrier Non-Responsive: Flagged events where a carrier has not taken action on a site at risk of runout within a specified timeframe. 

Lift Recon

• Missing Tracking Number: Flagged events where deliveries marked as Completed in the CCD do not have a tracking number provided. 

To make a note on a specific item, scroll to the right until you reach the Supplier Notes column. Type in a note for the Carrier, then click the Save icon to confirm.  

Monthly Scorecard

CCD and Weekly Scorecard results are filtered into a ranked report called the Monthly Scorecard. 

The Monthly Scorecard is generated on the first day of the month with the previous month's data. 

Suppliers may make edits to the Scorecard until it is locked on the first day of the next month.
