Drivers module: start here (Drivers list, filters, Export and New driver)

Find any driver in seconds, choose the columns you need, export the list and open a driver's profile. This is the starting point for everything about drivers in OpenRoad: the Drivers list is where every driver task begins.

Who can do this: users with access to Drivers. Adding a driver needs permission to create drivers.

Before you begin

Open the Drivers list

Select Drivers in the left menu. The list opens on the Active drivers.

Choose which drivers to see

• Status filter. The drop-down at the top left (Active by default) chooses which drivers to list. The counters next to it show how many drivers you have in each status: Pre-Hired, Active, Suspended, Terminated and Lead.
• Column boxes. Under each column heading there is a box. Type in it to filter by that column, for example part of a name, a truck number, a driver type or a phone number. You can use several boxes at once.
• Reset Values clears every search and column filter in one click.

Choose the columns

Select Edit columns and tick the columns you want to see. By default the list shows Driver No., Full name, Truck, Trailer, Fleet manager, Team, Driver type, Phone number and Email.

Export the list

• Export saves the rows you see on the current page to an Excel file.
• Export all saves every driver that matches your filters, not just the current page.

Both exports contain only the columns you have chosen with Edit columns.

Open a driver's profile

Select the driver number (the first column) to open the driver's profile. The profile has tabs for everything about the driver. See Driver profile: all tabs at a glance.

Add a driver

Select New driver at the top of the page. The steps and every field are in Adding a driver.
