Today and Planning.
What Today is for
Today is the operational control view. It is meant to answer four questions quickly:
- What needs attention now?
- What is blocked?
- What changed since planning?
- What is the safest next action?
Why Today can look quiet
If there are no live routes, no draft routes, no unassigned orders, and no active exceptions for the selected service date, Today stays intentionally light.
What Planning is for
Planning is where work is prepared for dispatch. Once orders exist for the selected date, Planning expands into route building, unassigned work review, assignment checks, and publish readiness.
Why Planning starts simple
When no orders are loaded for the selected date, Planning stays in a starter state so the page does not overwhelm the dispatcher with empty readiness panels and route scaffolding.
Changing the service date
Both Today and Planning are scoped to the selected service date. If you switch dates, Trackely reloads the corresponding operational state for that day.
