Orders

Kanban Board

Manage orders visually by status column — see all active orders at a glance, drag to reassign, and filter by driver or fleet.

Kanban Board

The Kanban Board provides a visual, column-based view of all orders organized by system status. Each column represents one of the five system statuses — created, dispatched, started, completed, canceled — and each card represents an order. It gives dispatchers a real-time snapshot of the operation's current state without navigating individual order records.

Accessing the Kanban Board

In Fleet-Ops, navigate to Operations → Orders and switch the view toggle from List to Board (Kanban view) using the view switcher in the top right of the orders page.

Board Columns

The board has one column per system status:

ColumnOrders shown
CreatedAwaiting dispatch
DispatchedSent to the Navigator app, awaiting driver start
StartedDriver actively executing the order
CompletedOrder completion activity has fired
CanceledCanceled orders

By default, completed and canceled orders are hidden to keep the board focused on active work. Toggle their visibility using the column filter.

Order Cards

Each order card shows:

  • Order ID (public_id — e.g., ORD-00123)
  • Customer name
  • Dropoff address summary
  • Assigned driver name (if assigned)
  • Scheduled time (if scheduled)
  • Status badge

Click a card to open the full order detail panel.

Filtering the Board

Use the filter bar at the top to narrow the board to:

  • Driver — show only orders assigned to a specific driver
  • Fleet — show only orders belonging to a fleet
  • Date — filter by scheduled date or creation date
  • Order Config — filter by order type

Filters stack — combine driver and date to see a specific driver's schedule for a given day.

Quick Actions from Cards

Hover over an order card to reveal quick action buttons:

  • Dispatch — dispatch a created order directly from the card without opening the detail
  • Assign — open the driver/vehicle assignment dialog for a created order
  • Cancel — cancel the order

Using the Board with the Orchestrator

The Kanban Board and the Orchestrator work well together. Use the Orchestrator to do bulk assignment and route optimization, then switch to the board view to monitor real-time progress as drivers work through their manifests.
