Permit tracking

The Permits page (/permits) is one list of every jurisdiction your loads pass through and where its permit stands. One row is one permit obligation: a state (with its local jurisdictions rolled up) on one load's route.

This page is about tracking the obligations. For getting a permit into Offload and turned into a route, see Permit management.

A saved-views workspace

The Permits page is a Saved Views workspace, like Loads and Projects: filter, group, sort, choose columns, export to CSV, and save shapes as views.

It opens on a default view called Entering soon: jurisdictions a load is about to enter without approved coverage, grouped by jurisdiction and sorted by estimated entry. It's the "what needs attention" list; clear it and you're covered.

The Permits page on its default Entering soon view: obligations grouped by jurisdiction, with workflow status, permit numbers, expiry countdowns, and the load and job they belong to.

What a row shows

  • Status - the obligation's state: Permit needed, Application in progress, Update required, Needs review, Permit approved, Annual permit, or Legal load.
  • Permit details - the permit count, primary permit number, its own status, effective and expiry dates, and an "expiring in" countdown.
  • Local jurisdictions - city and county permits stacked under the state row.
  • Trip context - estimated entry and exit, distance in the jurisdiction, and the load, job, and customer it belongs to. Superload and annual flags have their own columns.

Working the list

  • Update a status from the row menu ("Update state status") without leaving the list.
  • Open the load by clicking the row: it lands on the load's Routing & Permits tab, where the full permit and route work happens.
  • Filter to your slice: by status, customer, and estimated entry by default, with many more fields available.
  • Export the current view to CSV for a report.

Shared loads

Loads shared with you show their permit obligations here too, when the share includes permit and routing access. Everything job-related on those rows (job number, customer, project manager) reflects your own filing of the shared load, not the owner's.

Who can see this page

The Permits page follows route permissions: anyone who can read planned routes can open it. There's no separate feature to enable.
