Dispatch software for field service teams

Vercid's dispatch console is dispatch software for field service teams: a live status board, a map with job pins colored by urgency and service type, and a driver pickup queue, all writing to a single live record where every decision is dated. It replaces the whiteboard, the radio check-in, and the open-jobs spreadsheet with one screen the whole operation reads. When a dispatcher assigns a job, the board updates, the pin updates, the queue updates, and the audit log records who decided what and when.

Dispatch is one module of a larger workspace — ERP, CRM, and CMS in one platform — so the jobs on the board share a record with inventory, billing, files, and chat.

The status board replaces the whiteboard

Every open job sits on a live status board that changes as the work moves. When a job is assigned, picked up, or closed, the board reflects it — no one wipes a column at shift change, and no one photographs the whiteboard to remember what it said.

The board reads the same for everyone with a seat. A dispatcher in the office and an owner checking in from a phone are looking at the same jobs in the same state, because there is only one record to look at.

The map reads urgency and service type

Every job pins to a map, and each pin carries two signals: urgency and service type. A dispatcher reading the map sees which jobs need attention first, what kind of crew each one needs, and what is near what — without opening a single job.

Routing stops being a mental exercise spread across a spreadsheet and a separate map tab. The geography of the day is on one screen, colored by what matters.

The driver queue replaces the radio check-in

Assigned work lands in a driver pickup queue. Drivers see what is theirs to take next; dispatchers see what has been picked up and what is still waiting. The round of radio calls to find out who has which job becomes unnecessary, because the answer is already on the screen.

The iOS and Android app wraps the same workspace, so the queue a driver opens on a phone is the queue the dispatcher is watching. Coordination happens in the in-workspace chat, which sends push notifications.

Every decision is dated in the record

Every assignment, status change, and reprioritization is written to an append-only audit log with a date and an author. Changes are logged, not overwritten, and nothing is silently lost. When a customer asks why a crew arrived Tuesday instead of Monday, the answer is in the record, not in someone's memory of a radio call.

Full-text search covers the record, so a job, an address, or a decision from three months ago is a query away. One record. Nothing lost.

One module of one workspace

The dispatch console runs inside your branded workspace at your own subdomain, in your colors, fonts, and logo, next to the inventory grid, ops views for fulfilment and exceptions, billing, and files. Members, roles, invites, and per-seat licensing decide who dispatches, who drives, and who watches.

Postgres row-level security keeps every tenant's data separate, and Google SSO handles sign-in. Dispatch is not a bolt-on to a generic field-service tool; it is one view of the same single live record the rest of the operation runs on.

Common questions

What do the pin colors on the dispatch map mean?

Each job pin carries two signals: urgency and service type. A dispatcher reading the map sees which jobs need attention first and what kind of crew each one needs, without opening a single job record.

Can drivers see the pickup queue on their phones?

Yes. The iOS and Android app wraps the same workspace, so a driver with a seat opens the same queue the dispatcher is watching. Coordination happens in the in-workspace chat, which sends push notifications.

Does the dispatch board keep a history of who assigned what?

Yes. Every assignment, status change, and reprioritization is written to an append-only audit log with a date and an author. Entries are logged, not overwritten, and full-text search covers the whole record.
