- Posting and Sending with PostEverywhere
- PostEverywhere is a service that permits you to post your load and truck information on a variety of Internet posting sites. PostEverywhere can also send your load or truck to any email address. You reach a wider audience when you post to more posting sites, and PostEverywhere makes it easy.
- Sharing Information
- If you have multiple users at your company, with a multi-user account they can; view each others loads and trucks, track and update their status, and share internal notes about them from across the room or across the country. See the Sharing Information page for more details.
- Posting to Websites
- PostEverywhere puts you in control when dealing with the spot market to fulfill your needs. Not only will you spend less time dealing with websites, you'll be able to post to more of them. Cover more loads faster and reduce equipment downtime to improve your efficiency and make more money. See the About Compatible Websites page for more details.
- Sending Emails
- PostEverywhere does more than post to websites - it also allows you to send loads and/or trucks directly to your business contacts. PostEverywhere will improve communications, increase efficiency, and strengthen existing business relationships. See the About Sending Email page for more details.
- The PostEverywhere Desktop
- The PostEverywhere desktop is designed to help you organize and manage your postings quickly and easily. Use the buttons on the left panel to change the type of information displayed in the main window. Function buttons are displayed on the top toolbar depending on the current main window display.
- Type-ahead/Drop-down Lists
- Many data entry fields in PostEverywhere offer type-ahead lists. For example, when typing in an equipment type, the drop-down list of equipment types appears. If you press tab or enter, the selected list item will be inserted in the field. You may use the up and down arrow keys to change the selection.
- Note: Some type-ahead fields will only allow entries that appear on the list presented. These fields will force entries to the nearest allowed value when you tab ahead.
- Multi-selection
- When selecting items in PostEverywhere, you may use the Shift and Ctrl keys to select multiple items. Click on two items with the Shift key pressed, and all items between the selected items are also selected. Click multiple items with the Ctrl key pressed and only the clicked-on items are selected.
- Sorting
- To sort the data in the Active, Favorites, and History areas, click on the column header. The column you select will become the primary sort column. Clicking the header again will change from an ascending to descending sort. PostEverywhere will remember your sorting preferences for each area.
- Note: To sort on more than one column at a time, hold down the Ctrl key and click on each column you want to sort by in the order you want the sort to apply.
- Moving and Sizing Columns
- You may move and adjust the columns displayed on the main PE desktop to suit your preferences. To rearrange the columns, simply click and drag the column headings to the desired position. To change the width of columns, drag the divider between the column headings to the right of the column you want to change. PostEverywhere will save your changes to column orders and widths.
- Note: In some views, columns may extend off the screen, and you must scroll across to see them. You can see more columns without scrolling if your monitor resolution is higher than 800x600. Click on the maximize window button in the upper right hand corner of the main window, and PostEverywhere will expand to fill your screen.
