# Created column (Trips table)

> What the Created column in Dispatch Planner v2 shows, which time zone it uses, and how its date filter decides which day a trip was created on.

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

The **Created** column shows the date and time each trip was created. Use it to see how long a trip has been waiting, or sort by it to work the oldest trips first.

## At a glance

| **Table** | Trips |
| **Shown by default** | No. Add it from the Trips table column configuration menu. |

## How is the time shown?

The time is shown in the time zone your computer is set to, on a 24-hour clock, followed by the time zone abbreviation. For example, 08/25/2026 @ 14:05 CDT.

## How does the date filter work?

If you pick a date in the filter box under the column header, the table shows trips created before that day. Open the **Filters** panel to choose **Equals**, **Before**, **After**, or **Between** instead, and to combine two conditions.

* **Equals** matches trips created on the day you pick.
* **Before** matches trips created before the day you pick, not including that day.
* **After** matches trips created after the day you pick, not including that day.
* **Between** matches trips created from the first day through the last day you pick.

## Why does the filter return a trip I did not expect?

**The filter counts whole days in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).** The cell shows your local time, but the filter decides which day a trip was created on using UTC. For a dispatcher in Central time, a trip created at 20:00 CDT on August 24 counts as August 25 in the filter. If a trip lands on the wrong day in your filter, widen the date range by a day.

**A dash means no creation date is recorded.** Trips without a creation date show a dash and sort last.
