Screen Field Descriptions
Add Target
The Disposal Activity tool includes the option to add a Target Usage record by selection of an on-screen hyperlink. However, only one record can be created if this option is used. Additional target usage records and edits to existing records must be done in Setup > Operations > Facility > Target Usage (tab).
Add Usage Target
- Select the 'Click to add Target' hyperlink for the disposal location to display the 'Add Usage Target' editor.
- Enter an Effective Date to indicate when target usage tracking will start.
- Optional. Select a Material Type from the drop down. Only Disposal/Ship records matching the selected Material Type will be included in target usage calculations. Leave blank if the Target Usage is not restricted to a specific material type.
- Select a Target Type from the drop down. Options include:
- Loads
- Weight or Volume
- Cost
- Select a Time Period to establish a measurable time frame for the target usage goal. This will also calculate the 'Days Remaining' amount that displays under the Target column for a disposal location.
- Enter a Target Value to establish the measurable goal for the selected Target Type.
Unassigned Loads
Route and work order records that do not have a disposal location assigned will populate in the 'Unassigned Loads' list. Select the route or work order to open the 'Edit Route Record' editor and assign a disposal location. Upon save, the route or work order is removed from the Unassigned Loads list.
