Unloads Timeline
Description
The Unloads Timeline shows when loads were unloaded from the mixer across the selected week. Each coloured block marks an unload event, including when it started and how long the unload took. Day columns keep events grouped by the date they were completed.
Timeline layout
- Day columns: Each column represents one day; only unloads completed on that day appear in that column.
- Start time and duration: Blocks start at the unload start time and extend downward to show how long the unload took.
- Labels: Text on the block shows the feed plan or ration name plus the relevant load identifier (for example, “Mids 1 Left”).
- Colour coding: Distinct colours help you differentiate overlapping or consecutive unloads quickly.
Navigation and filters
- Week selector: The date range above the timeline indicates the current week in view.
- Previous/next arrows: Arrows beside the date range move backward or forward one week to review other unloaded feeds.
- Multi-select filter: Use the feedplan selector at the top to choose which unloaded feed plans are shown on the timeline; deselect to hide them.
- Scroll: Scroll vertically to see early-morning or late-evening unloads outside the current viewport.
Reading an unload block
- Placement: The top of the block is the unload start time; the bottom is completion. Taller blocks indicate longer unloads.
- Overlap: If unloads overlap in time, blocks appear side-by-side in the same day column so you can spot concurrent activity.
- Context: Match the label to the Loads or Unloads By Pen views if you need ingredient-level or pen-level details.
Practical uses
- Confirm unloads happened within the expected time windows for each ration.
- Identify days with heavy unloading activity that may require staffing or routing adjustments.
- Filter by feed plan to focus on specific rations (e.g., premix days) and step through weeks to confirm schedules are being met.
