Statuses and Status Profiles
Use Status Profiles and Statuses when your company wants to control execution stages with a custom status model.
This setup is most relevant for Proof of Delivery and other execution-oriented workflows where documents move through named business stages.
How to work in these pages
Use Status Profiles to define the list of execution states that users should see.
- Create the Status Profile first.
- Add simple, business-readable statuses to the profile.
- Keep the list short enough for dispatchers and drivers to understand.
- Avoid technical names that only developers understand.
- In Shipper TMS Setup, set Transport Execution Status Profile to the profile you want to use.
- Test the execution process and confirm that users see the expected statuses.
What is the difference
| Object | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Status Profile | The container that defines one status model |
| Status | A single step inside that profile |
Create a status profile
- Search for Status Profiles.
- Choose New.
- Fill in Code and Description.
- Open the card.
- Add the required statuses in the lines section.
Create statuses in the profile
For each profile, add the statuses your process needs, for example:
- Planned
- Loaded
- Departed
- Delivered
- Closed
Use simple business language that users understand immediately.
