In legacy iOn, we used the term operator for the drivers of your vehicles. In the current application, we have simplified this to just driver, although you will still see "operator" on some screens. The new screen for managing your drivers is Admin - Drivers, and you can view them as follows:
- In the sidebar menu on the left, click .
- Click Drivers on the flyout menu that appears.
The Admin - Drivers screen will appear.
By default, your drivers are listed by first name in ascending order (from A to Z).
- If you want to see drivers in subgroups of the one you have selected in the Group Chooser, make sure that View Subgroups is selected at the bottom of the screen.
- You can scroll down the grid to see all your drivers.
- To find a particular driver, you can sort or filter the First Name or Last Name column, as shown in Sorting and Filtering Column Data.
- You can export the grid data to a CSV (comma-separated value) file by clicking at the top right.
- You can add or remove columns by clicking at the top right of the grid and following the steps in Customizing Displayed Columns.
- If you don't have CalAmp save grid modifications you make automatically for all the application's screens (if the Automatically Save Grid Settings toggle in the Preferences area of My Profile is deselected — see Viewing Your Profile and Setting Your Preferences), you can save any layout changes you've made to the Admin - Drivers screen by clicking . (If you haven't made any layout updates you can save, will be above the grid instead.) See Saving Grid Changes for an Individual Screen for more details.
Here is an explanation of the column headers:
- Group: The name of the fleet group the driver belongs to.
- First Name: The driver's first name, as entered when their profile was created or last modified.
- Last Name: The driver's last name.
- Alias: An optional secondary identifier for the driver; this is used by only a few customers.
- Type: The classification for the driver, such as Driver Type I.
- Category: The grouping to which you've assigned the driver, such as Assisted Living Driver (if your organization has designated categories).
- Badge: The driver's badge number, or employee ID number.
- Schedule: The driver's specified set of days and hours they are supposed to work. Operator schedules are designed to work in coordination with the Unauthorized Usage reports, which show when drivers drove vehicles in a time window that was not permitted (for example, outside of their assigned schedule of 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.). In addition, you can set an alert to be triggered should its event occur any time outside the applied scheduled. (See Adding an Unauthorized Usage Notification.)
- Phone: The driver's cell phone number.
- Asset: The asset the driver is assigned to, which should be the vehicle they most often drive.
- Status: The operator's current state in the database, such as Enabled.
Note: If Status is set to Disabled or Suspended, you will be unable to assign the driver to a vehicle asset.
- Group: The name of the fleet group the driver belongs to.
- Just below the grid are icons that enable you to navigate through the pages of data, if needed. See Paging Options for an explanation of these.
