Zone Settings for Drivers

The setup for zones in the new TravelTracker-Trips is different from the older version. In the latest version, there are no setup tables for zones. Instead, zones can be created by typing them into the dropdown for the zone on the location or driver. 

 

For some districts, you may want to assign your drivers based on zones rather than restricting them to an individual school. Zones for trips are decided based on the assigned zone for the requesting or vehicle locations. 

 

*It is important to ensure that locations and drivers are assigned to the correct zones. Any drivers or locations assigned to incorrect zones may not show up correctly during the trip approval process. * 

Setting Up Zones at the Driver Level

To assign a driver to a specific zone, click in the top right-hand corner of your webpage, where you see the half-person icon. From the dropdown menu, select “Setup Tables.”  


On the left-hand side of the Setup Tables page, use the dropdown menu to select Staff, then Drivers.



Changing Zone for an Existing Driver

To change the zone for an existing driver, click on their name in the driver list. 



Select an existing zone or type to create a new one for the driver. Click save once you’ve made the appropriate changes. 

 

*Make sure your driver’s zone corresponds to the zones for the locations they drive for. If these do not match, the driver may not show as available for the appropriate trips* 





Assigning a Driver to a New Zone

To create a new driver, click the “+” button at the top left of the driver setup table. 



Fill out the necessary information for the driver. Select the correct zone in the dropdown menu or create a new one. Click save once you’ve added the required information for the new driver. 

 

*Make sure your driver’s zone corresponds to the zones for the locations they drive for. If these do not match, the driver may not show as available for the appropriate trips* 

 



Creating a New Zone for a Driver

If no existing zones apply to your driver, creating a new one is easy. Rather than selecting a zone from the dropdown menu, type the new Zone name into the Zone box. After saving, this zone will be available for drivers and locations.
