Driver Groups
Driver Groups Overview
Explanations
The overview shows the number of authorised fleet managers and the number of drivers in each driver group.
You can manage and add driver groups here. Each driver must be assigned to at least one driver group. In addition, specific working time parameters can be specified for a driver group, which then take precedence over the company's parameters.
Name: Name of the driver group
Standard: at least one of the driver groups must be defined as ‘Standard’; this is required for new drivers who cannot be assigned to a specific driver group
Number of fleet managers: Number of fleet managers who have access to this driver group
Number of drivers: Number of drivers assigned to this driver group
Driver Group - Master
At least one of the driver groups must be defined as ‘standard’; this is required for new drivers who cannot be assigned to a specific driver group.
Driver Group - Manager
The fleet managers who are to have authorised access to this driver group can be assigned here
Driver Group - Driver Allocation
This function can be used to assign drivers to the selected driver group
Driver Group - Working Time Parameter
Explanations
With the introduction of driver groups, the working time parameters are only relevant at driver group level. This means that the previous working time parameters for the fleets (vehicles) are no longer relevant.
The information relevant to working time is derived from the company specifications for working time and displayed here. These parameters can be customised for the respective driver group. If changes are made for a driver group, please note the following:
the changes to the parameters only become active from 00:00 on the following day. All values prior to this change are displayed in the evaluations (e.g. offence evaluations) with the values valid until then
If a driver is assigned to several driver groups, it must be ensured that the driver is assigned to the main driver group. This is done in Driver management -> Driver group assignment.
IMPORTANT: If no assignment to the main driver group is made in the driver group assignment, the working time parameters for the company are used for this driver.
The following generally applies: individual driver group parameters take precedence over the company's working time parameters
Add New Driver Group
Explanations
This function is used to create a new driver group. In addition to the name for the driver group, you must also specify whether this driver group should be the default (only for new drivers). In general, the default entry here is ‘No’. If there is only one driver group, ‘Yes’ is assigned to this driver group as the default.
Deleting driver groups
Before a driver group can be deleted,
all driver assignments to this driver group must be removed
all fleet managers assigned to this driver group must be removed
