Automated Opendock Appointment Reschedule Drafts

Every few minutes, WebRun monitors Opendock for newly cancelled appointments, identifies the door and time slot that opened up, finds the carrier most likely to fill it based on upcoming unconfirmed bookings, and drafts a reschedule offer in Gmail for your scheduling team to review and send before the slot goes to waste.

In short

How do I automatically draft reschedule offers when a dock appointment is cancelled?

WebRun monitors Opendock every few minutes for newly cancelled dock appointments. When a slot opens up, it identifies the best-fit carrier from upcoming unconfirmed bookings and drafts a reschedule offer in Gmail pre-filled with the door, date, and time. Your scheduling team reviews each draft before any carrier is contacted.

  • Cancelled dock slots are recovered in minutes, not discovered the next morning
  • Reschedule offers are pre-drafted so schedulers send with one click after review
  • No carrier is ever contacted without a human approving the message first

Questions, answered

Will it send the reschedule offer to the carrier without my approval?

No. Every reschedule offer is drafted in Gmail and left unsent. Your scheduling team reviews each draft and decides whether to send, edit, or discard it before any carrier is contacted.

How does it pick which carrier to offer the slot to?

WebRun looks at unconfirmed upcoming appointments in Opendock and surfaces the carrier whose shipment timing is closest to the open slot. Your team can change the recipient before sending.

What if no carrier is a good fit for the open slot?

If no clear candidate is found in Opendock, WebRun flags the open slot in the draft without a pre-filled recipient so your team can decide who to contact.
