How to read your company level pill in Dumpster Controls

A small colored badge on the dashboard shows your company's current level and how close the next one is, all from your real order count.

Before you start

• At least one real order created (sample orders do not count). Before that, the pill does not render.

1. Find the pill on the dashboard

   Open the dashboard. Below the setup checklist area sits a rounded badge with an icon and your current level name, for example "Rolling". Hovering it shows the tooltip "See your company levels".

2. Read the progress counter

   While there is a next level to earn, the pill appends your progress as "{current}/{next threshold}", for example "Rolling · 12/20" when you have 12 real orders and "On the Road" unlocks at 20. At the top level, "Hall of Fame", the counter disappears.

3. Click it for the full ladder

   Clicking the pill opens the "Company levels" dialog with every level, your unlock dates, and the money milestones.

What happens next

• The pill recolors and renames itself automatically as you level up; there is nothing to configure.
• The count behind it refreshes on its own, so orders created anywhere in the app (or through online booking) move the number.

Troubleshooting

The pill shows a lower count than my orders page.

Sample "DEMO-" orders are excluded from the level count. Remove them from the equation and the numbers match.
