# Intra-Day Changes

> When a driver or foreman needs to change the plan mid-shift.

## When to use this

Use this guide when the day goes off-plan — a driver finishes early and needs another job, a customer calls in a rush load, weather shuts a site, or the foreman moves trucks from paving to base course mid-morning. Most jobs do not run end-to-end as dispatched. Tread expects that.

## How it works

Three roles can change the plan during the shift.

**The dispatcher** edits the [order](/concepts/orders-projects) (the day's work) from the web app — reassigns trucks, adds or cancels loads, splits a job to a new site. Drivers see the change on their next push notification.

**The foreman** edits from the [Foreman App](/workflows/foreman) on the job site. Same edit rights as the dispatcher for projects they are assigned to. Useful when the office is offline or slow to respond. See [Foreman in the Field](/workflows/foreman).

**The driver** can flag a load as wait, void, or material-mismatch from the [Driver App](/mobile/driver-app). They cannot reassign themselves, but they can stop a load that is going wrong before it costs you a billing dispute.

Every change is logged. Office staff see the audit trail in the order history; billing pulls from the final state, not the original plan.

## Common pitfalls

<Warning>
  **Splitting a job mid-shift can break geofence-based auto-end.** If the auto-end timer is tied to the original [site](/concepts/sites-geofences) (a virtual fence around a job site), moving the job to a new site mid-shift may leave the original load open. Close it manually before reassigning.
</Warning>

<Warning>
  **Night shift jobs that span midnight.** Edits made after midnight on a job that started the previous day can land on the wrong calendar day. Confirm the shift date when reassigning across midnight, especially for [timesheet](/concepts/tickets-timesheets) approvals (the driver-hours record).
</Warning>
