DRIVERS
Shift-ready Driver Management
Manage all drivers as operational resources with clear status and shift-aware availability. Keep assignments, compliance, and safety information connected in one profile. Reassign drivers quickly during the shift using controlled workflows that prevent conflicts. Track documents, certifications, and readiness without separate tools. Ensure only eligible drivers are available for dispatch. DispatchFleet keeps this workflow connected across the platform.
CAPABILITIES
Inside Driver Management
Manage all drivers as operational resources with clear status and shift-aware availability. These capabilities show how DispatchFleet supports day-to-day execution in this area. They capture the decisions dispatchers and field teams make every shift. They also define the guardrails that keep data consistent when plans change. Scan the list below to understand the major functions at a glance. Next, the Features section breaks each capability into concrete actions, screens, and reusable building blocks.
Driver roster
Provides a fast, searchable view for driver roster within Driver Management. Surfaces key identifiers and state so teams can act without leaving the workflow. Supports quick drill-down to details for dispatch, compliance, or review.
- Search and filters
- Driver status + key fields
- Quick open details
Shift-aware availability
Shows availability per shift so unavailable resources are not assigned by mistake. Makes reasons visible (e.g., scheduled, retired, in-service) to keep utilization accurate. Supports clean dispatch decisions and reliable reporting.
- Shift-aware state
- Legend and reasons
- Assignment guardrails
Assignments & reassignment
Enables assignments & reassignment with validation so pairings remain consistent across driver, truck, and trailer resources. Prevents conflicts and applies changes immediately for the active shift. Records changes for traceability and audit readiness.
- Assign/unassign controls
- Conflict validation
- Immediate apply
Driver onboarding
Supports driver onboarding with structured fields and guardrails. Captures required identifiers and initial lifecycle state so the record is dispatch-ready. Reduces rework by validating data at the point of entry.
- Guided creation flow
- Required-field validation
- Initial lifecycle state
Driver profiles
Centralizes driver profiles so users can review configuration, relationships, and history in one place. Improves handoffs between dispatch, fleet, and accounting teams. Keeps edits safe with clear visibility into what changed and why.
- Summary and identifiers
- Linked activity history
- Safe editing controls
Compliance documents
Supports compliance documents by storing compliance files in a structured, searchable format. Makes expiration and completeness visible for dispatch readiness. Preserves a read-only history for audits and governance.
- Upload and classify
- Expiry visibility
- Read-only history
Safety logs
Provides safety logs with an event timeline that stays linked to jobs, tickets, and inventory impact. Improves visibility into what happened, when it happened, and who performed the action. Supports filtering and exports for audit workflows.
- Timeline view
- Event details
- Filters and audit
Operational notes
Adds operational notes so day-to-day context is captured consistently. Keeps the right people informed during live dispatch and post-shift review. Maintains traceability by keeping notes linked to the underlying entity.
