Haul Services

Schedule and manage haul-out, put-in, relocation, pressure wash, and other vessel handling services with status tracking and revenue reporting.

Haul Services lets you schedule and track all vessel handling operations -- haul-outs, put-ins, round trips, and relocations. Each service request captures the vessel details, customer, scheduled date, pricing, and special instructions so your yard crew has everything they need.

Service types

TypeDescription
Haul OutLift the vessel out of the water onto land
Put InReturn a stored vessel to the water (launch)
Haul & HoldHaul out and hold on land for a period (e.g., for maintenance)
Round TripHaul out and put back in on the same day
RelocationMove a vessel from one location to another
Note

Available service types can be configured per location from the Admin settings. The haul service settings (haulServiceSettings) on each location control which types are offered, pricing, and scheduling parameters.

Creating a service request

  1. Click New Request in the header.
  2. Select the service type (Haul Out, Put In, Haul & Hold, Round Trip, or Relocation).
  3. Enter vessel information:
    • Vessel name, LOA, beam, draft, weight
    • Registration number
  4. Link to a reservation (optional) to associate the service with an existing slip reservation.
  5. Set the requested date and estimated duration (30 minutes to 4 hours).
  6. Add customer notes with any special instructions for the crew.
  7. Enter optional add-on services (e.g., pressure wash, bottom paint checkboxes).
  8. Click Submit Request.

A unique service number is generated automatically (format: HS[YY][MM]-[XXXX], e.g., HS2604-A3BF).

Managing services

From the service card

Click any service card to open its detail dialog with full vessel info, dates, notes, and action buttons.

Status actions

Available actions depend on the current status:

Current StatusAvailable Actions

ConfirmedStart, Cancel, Delete
In ProgressComplete, Cancel
CompletedDelete (cleanup only)
CancelledDelete
  • Schedule -- Assign a specific date and time to a requested service.
  • Confirm -- Mark that the customer has acknowledged the schedule.
  • Start -- Begin the service (typically when the crane/forklift is in position).
  • Complete -- Mark the service as finished.
  • Cancel -- Cancel the service with a reason.
  • Delete -- Permanently remove the service record.
  • Status filter -- Click status chips to filter by any status. Each chip shows the count.
  • Pending filter -- Quick filter to show only Requested + Scheduled services.
  • Search -- Search by service number, vessel name, registration number, or customer notes.
  • Revenue chip -- The stats bar shows total revenue from completed services.

Stats summary

The stats bar at the top shows:

  • Total -- All services across all statuses
  • Pending -- Combined count of Requested + Scheduled services
  • Per-status counts -- Requested, Scheduled, Confirmed, In Progress, Completed, Cancelled
  • Total Revenue -- Sum of revenue from completed services

Pricing

Haul service pricing is configured at the location level in Admin settings. Pricing can be structured as:

  • Flat rate per service type
  • Per-foot rate based on vessel LOA
  • Custom pricing set on individual service requests

The service detail shows the calculated price and any adjustments.

Tip

Use the "Pending" filter each morning to see what needs to be scheduled or confirmed for the day. Keep the service notes detailed -- your crew on the ground relies on them for special handling instructions like mast height, keel type, or blocking requirements.

Troubleshooting

Service stuck in "Requested" status -- A staff member needs to manually schedule it by assigning a date and time. Requested services do not auto-schedule.

Cannot delete a completed service -- Completed services can be deleted for cleanup, but consider whether you need the record for billing or reporting before removing it.
