Part of the Dispatch Planner column reference. The Dispatched Date column shows the date and time a carrier was assigned to each trip, so you can see how long ago that happened without opening the trip. The time is shown in your own local time zone on a 24-hour clock, for example 04/08/2026 @ 14:30 CDT.

​
What date does the column record?

The column records when the trip’s carrier was assigned. It is not the time the trip’s status changed to Dispatched.
  • If you swap or unassign the driver, truck, or trailer and the carrier stays on the trip, the date does not change.
  • If a different carrier is assigned, the date changes to the time of that assignment.
  • If the carrier is removed from the trip, the date is cleared and the column shows a dash.

​
Why does a trip show a dash?

No carrier assignment date is recorded for the trip. This happens, for example, when no carrier is assigned. Read a dash as “no assignment date recorded”, not as “not dispatched”.
