A loadboard is an electronic board you can advertise your jobs on
A network is a carrier, or a group of carriers you create to give access to your Loadboard
- For example our default loadboard is named My Loadboard, this is a network of All Carriers
- The Driven A Loadboard, consists of the A Team Network, your preffered drivers using an app
- The Driven B Loadboard consists of the A Teamnetwork, your preferred drivers using an app and B Team network, the preferred drivers without an app
- And the Driven C consists of A Team, B Team and C Team Network. Your preferred drivers using an app and preferred drivers without an app and all of your other drivers
- You will then be able to post a job to Team A first, after an hour if the job is still availble, it can cascade and advertise to Driven B, but still also showing to Driven A. And then after 6 hours if the job is still being advertised it cascades to Team C, all of your other available drivers
- This way you can advertise your jobs and leave them on the board until allocated, instead of having to go back and re-advertise them
- For example when you advertise a job to Driven A the carrier in Team A will see this Job, after an hour it will readvertise to Team A and now Team B. After 6 hours if the jobs is still there it will re-advertise to Team A, Team B and Team C
