The Dispatch Optimizer (D.O.) includes a driver qualification validation feature that prevents dispatchers from assigning Bulk Liquid moves to drivers who do not have the required Bulk Liquid endorsement.
This ensures proper handling of specialized freight and maintains operational compliance standards.
An error message will display when all of the following conditions are met:
The move is designated as Bulk Liquid
A driver is selected for the move
The selected driver does not have a valid Bulk Liquid endorsement
The dispatcher attempts to assign or transmit the move
Bulk Liquid moves are identified directly on the move card within the Dispatch Optimizer.
Example: Bulk Liquid identifier displayed on the move card.
When triggered, the system displays a Dispatch Optimizer error message.
Message Details Include:
Notification that the driver is not certified for the Bulk Liquid move
Reference to the move being assigned
Example from the screen:
When the error appears, the dispatcher has one required action path:
The current assignment cannot proceed
The dispatcher must:
Identify a driver with a valid Bulk Liquid endorsement
Reassign the move using a qualified driver
Dispatchers should:
Verify driver qualifications before assigning Bulk Liquid moves
Use only drivers with confirmed Bulk Liquid endorsements for these moves
If the error appears unexpectedly:
Confirm the driver's endorsement status in the system
Coordinate with the appropriate team to update driver credentials if needed
The error is driven by driver endorsement validation
It acts as a hard stop and prevents dispatch
A qualified driver must be selected to proceed
Supports safe handling of Bulk Liquid freight
