PASS Dispatch System Properties

PASS Dispatch properties are additional checks that Workstation can make when assigning runs to ensure that drivers get enough rest and sleep before beginning another shift.

To update system properties, click Tools > System Properties and click the Profile tab.

Table 1. PASS Dispatch System Properties
Property Description
PASS Dispatch > Drive Time Maximum Maximum shift time that a driver can have.

The total elapsed time of the driver’s driving time is compared to all other runs to which the driver is currently assigned in the schedule.

If the total drive time is greater than the value defined in this property, a warning will appear.

PASS Dispatch > Sleep Minimum Sleep Check in the Driver Assign dialog box ensures that the driver has rested for the amount of time defined in this property.

The elapsed time is counted from the latest pull-in time of the driver's previous day runs until the next scheduled pull-out time.

This property also checks new pull-in times against the earliest pull-out time already assigned to the driver for the next day's schedule.

A warning appears if either value is less than the value defined in this property.
