Summary

🧰 Requires activation. Contact Account Manager for more details

What: A Container-Trailer locations tab in the Dashboard tab, shows aggregated resource counts per location or terminal. Resources are grouped into states such as At location - empty, At location - assigned to order, At location - out of service, Planned to arrive - not assigned to order, and Planned to arrive - out of service.

Why: Fleet managers and planners working with large container or trailer fleets need a centralised, at-a-glance overview of where equipment is located and how many units are available at each terminal. Until now, container and trailer information was only available as a flat list in Container planning, with no aggregation per location and no breakdown of available versus assigned units.

How: Open the Dashboard tab and select the Container-trailer locations Dashboard tab. Filter by resource type, country, location, or status to narrow the view.

Use Cases

Fleet manager checking how many containers are currently available at a terminal before accepting new bookings
Planner identifying terminals where empty containers are accumulating and need repositioning
Operations team reviewing fleet distribution by country at the start of each day
Yard manager planning parking capacity by reviewing what is currently on site and what is incoming over the next days

Terminology

Term	Definition
At location - empty	The resource is at a location (based on its last completed stop), is not flagged as out of service, and has no upcoming planned stop. Available for new planning
At location - assigned to order	The resource is at a location based on its last completed stop and has a subsequent planned stop. Outgoing movement
At location - out of service	The resource is at a location and has an active unavailability, or has an unavailability scheduled within the next 7 days
Planned to arrive - not assigned to order	The resource has a planned arrival stop at a location and no out-of-service flag within the 7-day horizon
Planned to arrive - out of service	The resource has a planned arrival stop at a location but is flagged as out of service or will be within 7 days
Total fleet	All active containers, trailers, and chassis in scope, regardless of state

Opening the dashboard

Open the DASHBOARD tab.
Select the Container-trailer locations tab.

The dashboard loads with the default view: all resource types, all countries, and all statuses.

Reading the dashboard

Summary cards

The cards at the top of the dashboard show the total fleet count plus breakdowns:

Total fleet: count of all containers, trailers, and chassis in scope
Total fleet - assigned to order: resources with an active order assignment
Total fleet - not assigned to order: resources with no current order assignment
Total fleet - out of service: resources flagged as out of service now or within the next 7 days

Location table

Each row in the table represents a location or terminal. Columns include:

Location / Terminal name
Country
Total resources at this location
At location - empty count
At location - assigned to order count
At location - out of service count
Planned to arrive - not assigned to order count
Planned to arrive - out of service count

Filters

The following filters are available:

Resource type: All / Containers / Trailers / Chassis
Country: filter to one or more countries (for example, Belgium, UK, Netherlands)
Location name: free-text search
Status: All / At location - empty / At location - assigned to order / At location - out of service / Planned to arrive - not assigned to order / Planned to arrive - out of service

Data source and refresh

Aspect	Detail
Update frequency	Approximately every 2 to 3 hours, depending on location
Current location source	Derived from the resource's last completed stop. Resources with no completed stops fall back to their starting location
Next location source	The most recent to-plan or planned stop, by maximum timestamp
Arrival vs departure	Determined by the stage of the stop (pickup, delivery, empty pickup, empty delivery)
Out of service horizon	A 7-day forward-looking window on the resource's unavailability records

Limitations

Limitation	Detail
Per-container detail panel	Detailed status, repair info, clean status, or notes per container are not part of this release
Configurable horizon	The 7-day out-of-service horizon is fixed and not configurable per tenant
Manual yard movements	Container or trailer locations are derived from completed stops. Manual yard movements outside of Qargo are not reflected
Empty container returns	Empty returns must be planned as standalone trips. A depot drop bundled with another activity will not be reflected as an empty-return on the dashboard
Location filter behaviour	When filtering by country or location, a resource whose next planned activity is on an unfiltered location will drop out of the view. This is a known side-effect of per-location aggregation
Max capacity per location	Max capacity is configured manually on the location record and is not auto-derived from physical slots or historic occupancy

Troubleshooting

Issue	Resolution
A resource appears in the wrong location	The current location is derived from the last completed stop. Confirm that the most recent stop has been marked as completed in the Planboard
Counts seem outdated	The dashboard refreshes every 2 to 3 hours. Recent changes in the Planboard may not yet be reflected
Resource is missing from the dashboard	Confirm the resource is active, not archived, and of a supported type (Container, Trailer, or Chassis)
Filtering by country hides expected resources	A resource whose next planned activity is at a location outside the filtered country will be excluded. Broaden the country filter or remove the location filter
