Q. Is it possible to open the Qargo platform on multiple screens and use the 'Select & drop' feature to drag orders from one screen to resources displayed on another screen?
A. Yes — you can open Qargo on multiple screens or browser windows to plan orders more easily. You can view the “To Plan” overview on one screen and the Plan Board on another, then use the Select & Drop feature to move selected orders between them.
📘 Terminology
Term | Definition |
To Plan | A list showing orders that are not yet assigned to a resource. |
Plan Board | The visual scheduling board where planners assign orders to vehicles, drivers, or time slots. |
Pre-plan | A temporary staging area where orders can be grouped or prepared before being placed on the Plan Board. |
Select & Drop | A feature that lets users choose one or more orders and move them into another planning area by dropping them in the desired spot. |
Resource | A vehicle, driver, or other asset available for planning. |
This feature helps users plan faster and with more visibility by letting them:
Keep “To Plan” on one screen (for available or unplanned orders)
Keep the Plan Board on another (for assigning or adjusting orders)
Select orders from one screen and drop them into the other, creating a smooth select-and-drop planning experience.
You can work with the following screens in separate browser windows or monitors:
To Plan → Plan Board
Select orders in “To Plan” and assign them to resources on the Plan Board.Plan Board → Plan Board
Move orders from one resource or timeslot to another.To Plan → Pre-plan → Plan Board
For workflows where orders are first staged or pre-assigned before being finalised.
🧪 Common Use Cases
Better visibility: Keep your unplanned orders visible while viewing the schedule on another screen.
Faster planning: Move multiple orders quickly between views.
Easier adjustments: Shift orders or trips without losing your place or closing views.
🔍 Limitations
You cannot drag and drop a single order directly between screens.
Instead, SELECT one or more orders and then move to the Plan Board to place them.
The “drop” action only works within the Plan Board view once orders are selected.
💡 Tip
For the best experience:
Use two monitors or large screens.
Keep both windows open and logged into the same Qargo account.
Make sure your browser allows pop-ups or multiple window sessions for Qargo.
These setups help you plan trips more efficiently by spreading out your workspace and avoiding constant tab switching.
