Assign a car and chauffeur
Give each ride a vehicle and a driver, and what they're sent.
- Who:
- Owners, admins and dispatchers
Assign
- Open Bookings.
- In the ride's row, choose a vehicle and a driver from the two lists. They save at once.
The lists only offer what fits:
- Vehicles: active cars of the ride's class. Cars in maintenance or retired don't appear.
- Drivers: everyone except drivers marked Off duty.
Choosing a driver moves the ride to Assigned; removing them puts it back to Confirmed.
What the chauffeur gets
- An email with the trip, the passenger's name and phone, and the car, if the driver has an email address.
- A notification on their phone, if they turned on ride alerts in their app.
- The ride appears in their driver app, where they tap Got it to confirm they've seen it. The ride's page shows "Confirmed" with the time, or "Not confirmed yet".
Faster ways
- Suggested chauffeurs on the ride's page assigns a free driver and car in one tap.
- For a standing order, assign this and every later ride at once.
- The Dispatch board shows who is free when.
