Real-time Trip Trading/Aggressive Pick Up Manual 12 4.4 Placing Open Time Parings in Cart As you look at a Pairing in open time, you can put it in a shopping cart so that you have a shorter list to evaluate before making a pickup decision. This makes it easier to evaluate the Pairings as well as have them handy in a list in case the first few pairings are already picked up when you attempt the pick- up. To put open time Pairings into the cart, click the checkbox on the left side column to mark a Pairing or Pairings. A checkmark will appear in the box. (To remove the check, click box again.) After each Pairing is checked OR after checking all that you are interested in on a particular page, click the “Select” tab located just above the “Pairing Number” heading. The paring(s) that you selected above now appear in a shopping cart above the open time display as shown in the screen below. Also, in the open time display, the paring(s) that are in your cart have the words “In cart” in the “Pairing Date” column and the other columns are blank to make shopping the rest of the open time parings easier. Note: if a paring that you have in your cart is picked up from open time, the word “Deleted” will appear. Real-time Trip Trading/Aggressive Pick Up Manual 13 You may view other pages or change options and display a new set of open time Pairings without affecting the shopping cart. The Pairings will remain in the cart until you have cleared them. If you picked them up, they will be marked “deleted”, but will remain in your cart until cleared. To clear a Trip from the shopping cart, mark the Pairing(s) by clicking the white box and click the “Clear” tab at the top of the shopping cart. To clear all Pairings from the cart, click the “Clear All” tab and click “OK” to confirm the removal of Pairings from the cart. 4.5 Pickup Open Time Parings You may pick-up a paring directly from the open time display OR from your shopping cart. To pick-up one or more Pairings in either list, click the checkbox in the left side column to mark a paring(s). A checkmark will appear in the box. (To remove the checkmark, click the box again.) After each Pairing(s) is checked on a particular page, click the “Pickup” tab located just above the “Pairing Number” heading at the top of either list. You must pick-up trips marked before going to a new page. You may mark Pairings in both lists and click the “Pickup” tab from either list and both lists’ marked Pairings will be carried forward into the Open Time Pairing Pickup screen. After you click on the ‘Pickup’ tab you will be directed to the pickup verification screen. This screen will summarize the pickup request you have selected.
