I see. I was confused. You selected the AUG 1 bid month in the drop down window, upper right, and then plugged in your trip on AUG 30 and it says "invalid date"?

Isn't there a certain window where you can't drop carryout trips?

It's been awhile, but I don't think you can drop a trip that carries into the next month (Aug to Sep ) until the Sep bids have been run to see if there is enough Reserve coverage in Sep to cover it. Don't talk my word on this.

You're right. He just can't even get to that step.

I PD'd a carryout trip. Dates of the trip were 1-4 July, I dropped it 23 May (1 July was last day of June bid period).

The language was improved and you can now drop the trip as long as coverage in the current month is good.
