Driver information can also be used in the Dispatching module and SMS text message alert system.








Adding New Drivers
  • Navigate to Dispatching >> Drivers


Click the  [+New Driver ] button.

   

Fill in your driver's information. 


Required fields are the  Hauler, Name, and Driver ID.


Driver PIN (optional) - Assign a PIN for your driver to use the in-cab dispatching and tracking app for mobile. However, this field should only be used if a truck does not have a dedicated device mounted in the cab. 
Before using this option, get in touch with TAC Insight customer support so we can help you verify whether this option is needed for your operations

If you would like this driver to receive dispatching alerts via SMS text, the "Dispatch SMS" box should be checked and phone number filled out.


Add in any other optional Driver Identification information.

To edit or delete an existing driver, click either the  Edit or Delete button on the Drivers screen.

Once a driver list has been established, your Drivers can be added to individual Truck profiles by navigating to Trucks > Trucks and editing a truck there. Click the [...] button next to Driver Name to link a specific Driver to a Truck.

This will also pull in the driver's SMS number and any other information established in the Driver list.
