Tickets Menu
There are two different versions of the Tickets Menu. One version appears when you decide to use bids to create tickets, the other is when you choose not to use bids.
Creating tickets using bids
When the tickets menu first opens, it will look like nothing has happened, but there will be a "Ticket Panel" on the right side of the program.
Using the Ticket Panel, you can create a new ticket, search for tickets, save tickets, print tickets or delete tickets.
When you click "Create a new Ticket", you will be prompted to enter the bid number when trying to create a new ticket. (picture)
One you enter the bid number, you will be presented with a menu similar to the one below:
Within this menu, you are able to view the following:
(A) The job type
(B) Detailed financial information about the material, truck, driver, overtime, and broker.
(C) The number of miles travelled
(D) Detailed ticket information (date, your ticket number, the pit's ticket number)
(E) Detailed location information (job origin and destination, pit name, lot nUber)
(F) Detailed material information (gross weight, tare weight and net weight)

(H) Detailed driver information (driver name, driver's hours)
(I) Invoice information (material and trucking charges, subtotal, taxes, total)
(J) Accounts payable information (driver gross, driver rate, broker rate)
Creating tickets without bids
When the ticket menu opens, the Ticket Panel will again appear on the right, but it will be slightly different this time. If you notice, there is a "Create similar Ticket" option that was not present in the Tickets Menu using bids.
However, when you click on "Create a new ticket", a somewhat different Ticket Menu appears.
Within this menu, you must enter the following information:
(A) Customer name
Date
Purchase Order (PO) number
The origin of the load, whether it is a pit, and the ticket number from that origin
The destination of the load, whether it is a pit, and the ticket number from that destination

(C) The truck ID and rate, as well as whether tax applies here
(D) The driver's name and hours, as well as hourly and commission pay

The ticket charges will appear in the box in the lower right hand corner of the New Ticket window.
