DockSlot
DockSlot is web software for small warehouse teams that accept carrier booking requests, confirm dock times, create manual appointments, and manage a daily queue. Carriers can request available times through a public link without a DockSlot account or password, and warehouse staff review requests before confirmation. Staff can also enter phone or email requests, then confirm, reject, cancel, mark no-shows, or update appointments as arrived, loading, or completed. The Schedule page shows one warehouse day grouped by dock door. Teams can configure dock doors, appointment types, weekly hours, and booking instructions. Each booking accepts up to three PDF, JPG, or PNG files, with a 10 MB limit per file. Admins can download CSV reports or create read-only report links that can be disabled or expire. Appointment history records key changes. DockSlot compares arrival-to-completion dwell time with the account’s free-time setting as detention evidence, but does not calculate charges or create invoices. Accounts are created by invite; there is no self-serve signup. DockSlot is available through early-access demos. Billing and integrations are not part of the available early-access workflows. Uploaded carrier documents are private to the warehouse team. Pricing is on request.
