Truck Load Inventory

Truck Load Inventory shows you the current inventory of your assigned truck, and if Living Manifest is enabled, manually edit the inventory and print up-to-date manifests using a bluetooth printer paired with your device (Android only).

TrackAbout keeps a running total of the assets on a truck, from the last time the truck was unloaded until the next time it’s unloaded.

• When a truck is unloaded using Unload Truck, Load/Unload Truck, Unload Truck by Picking, or Unload Truck by Trip, TrackAbout zeroes out the inventory shown in Truck Load Inventory.

  Saving an Unload Truck record resets the truck inventory completely to none — even if no assets were added or scanned.

• When the truck is loaded using Load Truck or Load/Unload Truck, TrackAbout adds the loaded assets to the inventory count shown in Truck Load Inventory.

• Every time a delivery/return is saved, TrackAbout updates the on-truck inventory shown in Truck Load Inventory.

  TrackAbout can be set to ask if you want to view the current inventory and print the current manifest when you save. If you do, Truck Load Inventory automatically opens. This option can be enabled by TrackAbout Support.

• If using Living Manifest, when the user makes manual adjustments to the on-truck inventory, TrackAbout updates the on-track inventory.
