To use Macropoint, which right now is manual under the Utilities menu (For Updates) and Tracking/Check call screen (To view updates or start tracking a given load).



MP will not allow posting dates or times that are in the PAST(old). 



5) After pressing the Tracking button, simply go to the MacroPoint tab. make sure you set the "tracking duration" and "frequency" to your liking, also check pick date etc. The email address(s) you entered in 'settings" will always show up, you can add more here by simply adding in the box, use a comma to separate addresses. You can pull in 'NOTES' from stop info or enter in the NOTES field provided. This will show on trip info sent to drivers.


6) You must supply the drivers cell number to complete the needed info (brokerage). On the trucking side, the drivers cell will populate automatically from the driver info tab.


7) Once all info suits you, simply press "Add/Track" button to post the trip to MacroPoint website. The driver will receive a text on his smartphone and the GPS tracking will start when scheduled.




7) You receive event updates from MacroPoint to DRD, go to UTILITIES -> Get Load Updates. This will add all load events/tracking to the DRD check call screen. You can also use MacroPoints web portal to manage your trips and see tracking progress on a map.






Finally - if you go to the Tracking button again on any tracked loads - any of the 4 update types should be pulled in from Macropoint as a check call - with as much information filled in as possible.
