FAQ

Common questions about gate management

What is gate management in a yard?

It is check-in, validation, document capture, and gate-out for trucks entering and leaving the yard — the step before staging and dock work begins.

How is gate management different from yard management?

Gate management is one step. Yard management connects that gate capture to the yard map, dock assignment, dwell tracking, and closeout on the same visit.

Can carriers see gate-in and gate-out?

Yes. On Flodock Partners, carriers follow the same visit lifecycle the yard uses — without calling the gate for every update.
