Drivers and fleet
Your drivers and trucks are the resources that dispatch assigns work to. In the Company Portal you keep a record for each driver, invite drivers to the RushHour driver app, keep a list of your trucks, and decide what the driver app asks drivers to do.
| Where | What you manage | Guide |
|---|---|---|
| Drivers in the sidebar | Driver records: contact details, license and documents, status, history and messages. | Manage drivers |
| Drivers in the sidebar | Driver app accounts: invitations and passwords. | Driver app invitations and sign-in |
| Settings → Fleet | Your trucks and the vehicle inspection reports drivers submit. | Trucks and inspection logs |
| Settings → Driver App | The steps drivers follow at the start and end of a shift and at each stop, and which driver app features are switched on. | Driver app settings |
Drivers who work for an outside carrier are kept in the same driver list, linked to their carrier. See Carriers.
