Refers to order specific settings for displays.
Summary
Depending on used display the useable settings may differ. The settings can be changed via the following tabs:
| Tab | Description |
|---|---|
| order state setting | Allow to define own state texts for an order. Optional a state text can be defined with an action. For Garmin displays this setting is not available. |
| orders / forms | Some types of display allow to create a new order directly at the display. This menu allows to enable or disable the function and a custom form can be assigned to each order, created this way. |
| order text layout | For Garmin displays the order and volume of elements can be changed. Changing this is similar to tab bar configuration. Additionally a preview will show an example result. |
Order state settings
Common
The order state texts definied here, can be set at the display. Up to 6 state messages can be defined. An additional action can also be appended to a state text. This options are:
| Action | Description |
|---|---|
| no action | No order state change when setting this state. This may be helpful e.g. to communicate a pausing order. |
| set order as active | Set the order as active order. If a navigation target is set and the display supports it, the navigation can be started, too. |
| delete order from display | Deletes the order from the display and set as closed at the portal. |
Create / Edit
On create a new order state or edit an existing one, the according menu first shows the list of currently defined states.
Below this list is a text input, define the state text with up to 20 chars. Optional an action can be appended, using the select box below.
Broadcasting
After the state messages defined at the portal, they have to be transmitted to the according displays. At the according mask, single objects, group or all objects in list. Only objects, supporting the user defined message states listed here and the current user must have edit rights.
Orders / forms
Common
For supported displays you can (de)activate the function to create orders directly at the display here. Furthermore a default custom form can be set, which will be appended to each order, created on the display. Therefore the custom form must be available at the display!
Assignment
The first limitation of general visible objects is done by their support of order creation. If a form to append selected, only the checkboxes for displays, supporting this form, stay clickable. For other objects the checkbox will be disabled.
Order text layout
Common
This setting is only available if only garmin displays with proprietary FMI interface used. So the structure of the visible order text can be adjustet to use the available text length as best as possible. Therefore the text elements can be moved from and to the order text elements area and sorted in the desired direction there. To get a feeling for the resulting messages, right below is an example text area.
Elements
The following elements are available:
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| date | If an arrival time was planned, showing the date part. |
| time | If an arrival time was planned, showing the time part. If date and time are assigned in this order, they will be connected to a datetime element |
| order text | the order text itself. This text must be part of the submitted order text. |
| order number | The self defined order number per order |
| sort number | Optional a sort number can be added to an order to help the driver, executing the orders in the correct way. |
| contact informations | If a created order was assigned to a customer from address book and for this customer at least one contact person was assigned, this according contact informations (name, phone number) will be added to the text. |
| navigation target | The navigation target always will be submitted internally but this way the driver can not see this target. So this will enable the option, that the driver can see the navigation target address as shown on order creation. |
