# Next planned in column (Drivers/Assets table)

> What the Next planned in column in Dispatch Planner v2 shows, where a driver's next trip or driver event begins, and why the column can be blank.

Part of the [Dispatch Planner column reference](/en/help/loads-trips/dispatch-planner-columns).

The **Next planned in** column shows the city and state where a driver's next commitment begins after their free time. Use it to pick a trip that leaves the driver close to where they need to be next, for example near home before Hometime.

## At a glance

| | |
| - | - |
| **Table** | Drivers/Assets |
| **Shown by default** | Yes |
| **Sort** | Yes, by state and then by city |
| **Filter** | Pick a place and a radius (25, 50, 100, 250, or 500 miles), or type text to match the city or state |
| **Who sees it** | Everyone who can open Dispatch Planner v2 |
| **Edit in the grid** | No |

## Where does the location come from?

**Next planned in** is where the commitment that ends the driver's free time begins:

* If the next commitment is a trip, it is the trip's first stop.
* If the next commitment is a driver event, such as Hometime or Vacation, it is the event's address.

The commitment is the same one shown in **Next planned at** and **Next planned event**, so the three columns always agree.

## Why is the column blank?

**The driver has nothing planned after their free time.** If no trip or driver event follows **Available at**, there is no next commitment and the column shows a dash.

**The driver has no availability.** When **Available at** shows a dash, so does **Next planned in**. That happens when the driver has no trips and no driver events on record, or belongs to an outside carrier.

**Filtering by place leaves out blank rows.** A place-and-radius filter only matches drivers whose next commitment has a location on the map.
