    How to work the Deliveries tab in Dumpster Controls

    The Deliveries tab lists every order waiting for a dumpster to go out, with filters and statuses computed from the delivery date.

    1. 1

      Read the header

      The section is titled "Deliveries" with the subtitle "Orders that need delivery assignment or scheduling". Next to it sit the search box ("Search order, customer, address..."), a date filter with live counts ("Total", "Late", "Today", "Tomorrow", "Next Week"), "Export CSV", and "New Order".

    2. 2

      Filter and sort

      The filter row offers sorting ("Oldest Due", "Newest", "Highest Amount", "Nearest Date"), a size filter ("All Sizes", "12 Yard", "20 Yard", "30 Yard"), a driver filter ("All Drivers", "Assigned", "Unassigned", or a specific driver), and a payment filter ("All", "Paid", "Unpaid", "Partial"). "Clear" resets everything. On mobile the same filters live behind a "Filters" button.

    3. 3

      Read a row

      Columns are "Order ID", "Size", "Address", "Customer", "Amount", "Delivery", "Status", and "Driver / Actions". The status pill is automatic: "Late", "Ready", or "Scheduled" based on the delivery date, with "Today" and "Tomorrow" tags next to the date. A "#" chip shows the unit serial when one is linked.

    4. 4

      Spot new and online orders

      Orders that just arrived flash a "NEW" badge for 30 seconds and play a short chime. Orders booked through your public booking page carry a green "ONLINE" badge.

    5. 5

      Act on a row

      Click anywhere on the row to open the order drawer. The "Assign Driver" button jumps straight to driver assignment, the eye icon opens details, and the three-dot menu includes "Decline Order".

    What happens next

    • "Export CSV" downloads the currently filtered list, so filter first if you only want part of the day.

    Troubleshooting

    I see "No deliveries found".

    The list is filtered. The empty state suggests "Try adjusting your search or filters"; click "Clear" to reset.
