Updated 4 October 2026
You can shape each plan board to the way you work. Most choices are personal and are remembered in your browser per board. A few options are set for the whole platform by an administrator.
Choose the columns
- Open the board on the plan board.
- Click Columns in the toolbar.
- Tick the fields you want to show and untick the others.
- Open the Driver and Transport Equipment sections for fields about coupled drivers and equipment.
- Drag fields in the list to change their order.
- Close the panel.
The Information column is always shown. Fields that can have several values, such as drivers, are repeated per value and numbered "#1", "#2".
Which columns are available
| Board | Examples of columns |
|---|---|
| Vehicles | Name, Activity, License Plate, Current Location, Previous stop, Next stop, Last stop, Speed, Trip ETA, fuel, dimensions and load meters, cabotage dates, trip number, status and stops, expected revenue and cost, CO₂. Driver fields such as remaining driving and working time and upcoming rest times. Equipment fields such as registration and equipment number. |
| Trips | Modality, Trip status, Activity, Trip number, Start date & time, Trip ETA, Next stop ETA, first, previous, next and last stop with time windows, consignments, drivers, distance, duration, vehicle, remark, booking and bill of lading number. |
| Chauffeur | Name, Activity, Vehicle name, upcoming rest times, ADR, driver's licence, remaining driving and working time. |
| Means of transport | Name, Activity, Equipment ID, type, licence plate, location and stops, ETA, dimensions, weights, load meters, ADR, operational and internal. |
Expected revenue, turnover and cost columns are only visible with access to financial data.
Resize, reorder and sort in the table
- Drag the edge of a column header to change its width.
- Drag a column header to move the column.
- Click a column header to sort by it. Click again to reverse the order. This works for columns that have a matching sort option.
- Or click Sort and choose an option with ↑ (ascending) or ↓ (descending).
Table or cards
- Open the side menu (☰) and choose Settings.
- Click User interface.
- Under Table Types, choose Table for a spreadsheet-like grid or Dynamic for card-like rows.
The choice applies to the plan board and Watchtower. Row checkboxes for bulk actions on the vehicle, chauffeur and means-of-transport boards are only available in Dynamic.
Board settings
Click Settings in the board's toolbar for these options:
- Only first label: in the card layout, shows the column labels on the first row only (on by default).
- Show labels: shows the column labels on every row.
- Next trip view (vehicle board): adds a table with each vehicle's next trip beside the vehicle rows.
- Second next trip view (vehicle board): adds a second table for the trip after that.
With a next trip view on, a second Columns icon chooses the trip columns. Drag the dividers to change the width of the tables. You can drag a consignment, driver or equipment onto a next-trip cell to add it to that trip.
For administrators: Load all
- Open Settings and click the Environment tab.
- Open UI Settings.
- Switch on Show a "Load all" button on planboards and planners.
- Optionally choose Roles that get the "Load all" button. Leave it empty to show it to every role.
- Optionally set Rows per request while loading all.
- Click Save.
Loading all rows of a large fleet is a heavy request. That is why the button is off by default.
For administrators: icons and colours
Under UI Settings > Planboard icons & colours, click + Add formatting rule to colour the status bar of rows that match filters, and add an icon. Per rule you set Enabled, the entity (Select entity), the Icon, Color, Tooltip, Order and the filters that decide which rows match. Click Save when done.
