Vehicles in plant shows those vehicles to be loaded/ticketed, clicking on a specific vehicle would populate the Scale ticket screen with checked-in details. This saves the shipper having to manually enter vehicleID to either load or ticket the vehicle.
Chris,
You could create a custom column in the inquiry program to display an event, this was one of the nice features of the new program was it gives customers more flexibility in determining what data to view and not be confined by a set of hard coded fields. Below is some information on configuring the inquiry program.
Custom SQL allows system administrators to alter the inquiry program's default SQL. The SQL editor can be accessed by selecting Admin | SQL from the menu. Custom SQL allows users to add or rename columns. Custom SQL does not apply on a per-view basis but rather on a per-view-type basis. All views of a given view type will use the custom SQL. This includes default Apex views. If the custom SQL has syntax errors or gets overly complicated, there is a button on the SQL editor that will revert back to the default SQL query.
If new columns are added in the custom SQL statement but they don't show up in the grid, select Options | Delete Configuration For View from the menu, then run the inquiry again. The new columns should appear.
When writing a custom SQL statement for users or user groups that have location restrictions , do not include those restrictions as part of the custom SQL. Apex will add these restrictions to the custom SQL statement at run-time because these restrictions are dynamic depending on which user is logged into the system.
Hope this helps.

Gary,
thanks for the update.
Had a related question, when using AUTOID, is it possible to display a TARE
EVENT on the Vehicle in plant screen. ie Driver is interacting with Kiosk
to Check-in then moves to load area and TAREs in vehicle. Currently the
load out integration is missing, so the shipper wants to ensure the vehicle
TAREd (ie driver swiped) prior to commencing loadout.
any thoughts on this?
Chris, thank you for submitting to the Apex Ideas Portal regarding the ability to ticket from the Vehicles in Plant screen.
The functionality you've described was added to the Vehicles In Plant (New) screen in v6. The three functions listed below are ways to envoke the ticketing screen and populate with the checked-in vehicle information:
See attached for examples and the link below to Apex v6 Help for more details.
