3. Appointments

Click Appointments in the nav (or View all from the dashboard). Full table of inbound appointments scoped to your company: ID, From, Driver, Delivery Window, Status.

Buttons at top: Import CSV and + New Appointment. Click View → on any row.

4. Appointment detail

Details section:

  • Details card — status, origin, driver, carrier, price, pickup and delivery windows, on-time / late badges, detention minutes, payment hold.
  • Timeline card — Pickup Window → Picked Up → Delivery Window → Delivered, with timestamps.
  • Tracking Link — public URL; click Copy to share, or Preview to open.

Map section:

  • Map — origin (P, teal), destination (D, orange), driver marker (blue).
  • Current Status — driver color dot, status text, last seen, distance remaining, rough ETA.

Actions (before delivery): Edit and Cancel (confirms, notifies driver, broadcasts).

5. Create an appointment

Click + New Appointment. Fill in the form:

  • Origin (Shipper) — choose from the dropdown.
  • Pickup Start / End — when the driver should arrive at the shipper.
  • Delivery Start / End — when the driver should arrive at your facility.
  • Price — dollar amount (can be 0).

Your company is set as the destination automatically. Click Create Appointment to save.

6. Edit an appointment

From the detail page, click Edit. Change origin, windows, or price. Editing is blocked once delivery is confirmed. Click Update Appointment to save.

7. Import appointments (CSV)

Click Import CSV from the appointments page. Upload a .csv file — your company is set as the destination automatically.

Expected columns:

origin_vendor_id, pickup_window_start, pickup_window_end, delivery_window_start, delivery_window_end, price

origin_vendor_id is the ID of the origin company — you can find it on the Companies page or in the sample CSV. You may use origin_company_id instead. Download the sample CSV link on the import page to see a pre-filled example. Errors display per row if any fail.

8. Drivers

Click Drivers in the nav (or View all from the dashboard). Shows all drivers who have delivered to your facility: name, email, status badge, active appointment summary.

9. Driver detail

Name, email, phone, carrier. Current status badge with last location timestamp, coordinates, speed, and battery level. Active appointment card (if any) with a link. Recent location history table.

10. Messages

In the mobile app, the Messages tab shows conversations with drivers. Send and receive messages with read receipts and unread badges.

11. Tracking links

Each appointment has a public tracking URL. Find it in the appointment detail under Tracking Link. Click Copy to share with customers or dispatchers — no login required for the recipient.

12. Mobile app

Same features in the Lickety mobile app. Four bottom tabs:

TabWhat it shows
AppointmentsToday's loads; create new or import CSV; tap for detail
DriversActive and past drivers at your facility
MessagesChat with drivers (unread badges)
ProfileStats, change password, notifications, logout

Real-time updates arrive via WebSocket — appointment and driver changes appear automatically.

13. Status colors

Driver status updates every ~30 seconds while a load is active.

  • Green — on track

    On pace for the delivery window.

  • Yellow — at risk

    Window may be tight.

  • Red — endangered

    Driver may miss the window.

  • Grey — idle

    No active appointment.

Driver queue

Drivers can join a virtual queue for your facility. When you create or release an appointment, queued drivers are automatically notified via push — no extra action needed from you.

  • The Drivers queued dashboard card shows how many drivers are currently waiting.
  • Notifications fire automatically on new appointments, releases, and cancelled holds.
  • Drivers manage their own queue from the mobile app; entries expire after 24 hours.

14. Troubleshooting

Can't see appointments

You only see loads destined for your company. Ask your Lickety account administrator to verify your company assignment if the list is empty.

Driver appears stuck

Check the driver detail page for the last location time. The driver may have lost GPS signal or connectivity. Contact the carrier for updates.

CSV import fails

Check that all required columns are present and date formats are valid. Download the sample CSV from the import page for reference.

Session expired

Portal sessions expire after 8 hours of inactivity. Sign in again.

No driver on an appointment

The load is open and unassigned. A driver will claim it when they're available.
