How do I assign a driver to a route?

With EasyRoutes you can assign a route to a driver, or you can generate a dispatch link that allows your drivers to assign themselves. We call these Dispatch Links.

You can assign a route to any activated or deactivate driver in your store. However, in order to actually dispatch the route your deactivated drivers will need to be activated.

How to Assign a Driver

At the top of any route you create, you will find the route header where you can rename your route, schedule it, and assign it to a driver:

Click the "Driver" dropdown box and a list of drivers will appear. Select one to assign that driver, or click "Manage drivers" to quickly jump to your list of active and deactivated drivers.

Note: Routes cannot be assigned to a new driver if they're actively dispatched already. If the Driver dropdown (as shown above) is greyed out and cannot be clicked, click the Dispatched button to the right, and click the Stop Sharing button. This will un-dispatch the route, and allow you to assign the route to a new driver, who the route can then be dispatched to.

If you need to assign a specific vehicle to your route, add and configure vehicle details using EasyRoutes' Vehicle Profiles feature.
