Use this article to fill a job from the TruckIT mobile app by selecting trucks from your own fleet and assigning trucks from your subhaulers.
This workflow is used when a contractor needs to add trucks to a job from the Job Board. You can assign your own fleet trucks first, then choose trucks from preferred subhaulers before sending the job to each selected driver.
Before you begin
Make sure you have:
- Logged in to the TruckIT mobile app
- Contractor access
- A job available on your Job Board
- Trucks available in your fleet
- Subhaulers already added to your preferred list
- Drivers linked to the correct trucks
TruckIT recommends filtering the hauler or subhauler list by Preferred List so you only see the subhaulers or contractors you added. TruckIT also recommends reminding drivers to link themselves to the correct truck so they can view assigned jobs.
Log in as a contractor
1. Open the TruckIT mobile app.
Open the Job Board
1. Go to My Jobs.
2. Tap Today’s Jobs to open the dropdown menu.
3. Select Job Board.
The Job Board is where you can view jobs available for you to fill.
Start filling the job
1. Find the job you want to fill.
2. Tap Fill.
Add trucks from your fleet
1. Tap Trucks from Fleet.
2. Review your available trucks.
3. Select the trucks you need for the job.
4. Tap Continue.
5. Tap Next to continue to the subhauler list.
Use this step when you want to assign trucks from your own fleet before adding subhauler trucks.
Select subhaulers
1. Tap Select Subhaulers.
2. Filter the subhauler list by Preferred List.
3. Select the preferred filter.
4. Tap Done.
Filtering by Preferred List helps you only see the subhaulers you have added, which makes it easier to choose the correct partners.
Select trucks from your subhaulers
1. After filtering, review the subhaulers shown.
2. Tap Select Trucks for the subhauler you want to use.
3. Select the trucks you need from that subhauler.
4. Tap Done.
The selected subhauler trucks are now added to the job.
Add more subhaulers if needed
If you need trucks from more than one subhauler, repeat the subhauler selection process.
Continue selecting subhaulers and trucks until all needed trucks have been added to the job.
Finish assigning the job
1. Review all trucks added to the job.
2. Confirm that your fleet trucks and subhauler trucks are correct.
3. Tap Continue.
4. Tap Next.
After you tap Next, the job is assigned to each selected truck, and each driver will be able to see the job.
Review before tapping Next
Before completing the assignment, confirm:
- The correct job is selected
- Your fleet trucks are correct
- The subhaulers are filtered by Preferred List
- The correct subhauler trucks are selected
- Each driver is linked to the correct truck
- You have added all trucks needed for the job
This review helps prevent the job from being assigned to the wrong truck, driver, or subhauler.
Best practices
Use this workflow carefully because jobs are sent to selected trucks after the final step.
Recommended best practices:
- Log in as a contractor before filling the job.
- Use Job Board to find the job that needs trucks.
- Select your own fleet trucks first.
- Always filter subhaulers by Preferred List.
- Select only the subhauler trucks needed for the job.
- Add all subhaulers before tapping Continue.
- Confirm drivers are linked to the correct trucks.
- Review the full assignment before tapping Next.
Troubleshooting
I do not see Login as a Contractor
Your account may not have contractor access. Contact your company administrator or TruckIT Support.
I do not see the job on the Job Board
Confirm the job has been assigned to you and that you are viewing Job Board from My Jobs.
I do not see the Fill button
The job may not be available to fill, or your account may not have permission to fill jobs from the mobile app.
I do not see my fleet trucks
Check whether your trucks have been added to your fleet and are available. If trucks are missing, contact your company administrator.
I do not see the right subhauler
Make sure you have filtered by Preferred List. If the subhauler still does not appear, confirm that the subhauler has been added correctly.
A driver cannot see the assigned job
Confirm the driver is linked to the correct truck. TruckIT specifically recommends reminding drivers to link themselves to the correct truck so they can view jobs assigned to them.
I selected the wrong truck
If you have not completed the workflow yet, go back and update the truck selection. If the job has already been assigned, contact your dispatcher or company administrator.
