An assistant or aide can be added to a vehicle assignment. To do this, you must first assign the vehicle or driver on the trip request. Once this is done, the “Add Assistant” button will show.
This opens the “Find Available Drivers” panel. Ensure that
your “Designation” field is set to Aide (or your district’s equivalent) if you
have set staff for Bus Aides and Assistants. You can assign Drivers as
assistants. Click the checkbox to the left of the aide’s name and click
“Reserve 1 Driver Assistant.”
Your Aide/Assistant’s
zone and location settings in the Driver Setup Table decide which staff members
show in this list. See this
guide to learn more about zone settings for staff.
The
assistant will show in the assignment views and daily schedules.
The Assistant will show the trip ticket under the driver’s
information. The assistant will also get an email when
assigned to a trip or when a trip they are assigned to is canceled.
