Timetables define when a driver is available to start their shift and when they are expected to finish (end shift), essentially acting as a roster for your drivers. You can create multiple timetables to accommodate different shift patterns. Each driver can be individually assigned a specific timetable, enabling the system to accurately track their availability. Assigning a timetable to every driver is essential to fully utilise the optimiser’s capabilities.
To use the "Auto Optimize" functionality within SmartMove, Timetables are required.
1. From the menu, click Timetables:
2. Click "New timetable"
3. Create name for your Timetable and click "Save"
4. Click "Add Day"
5. Select the day and the time range which the drivers are available > click "Save"
Continue this step for all available days that are required for this Timetable.`
6. Your Timetable is now complete and ready to assign to the driver. We will go over assigning the timetable to the driver in the Adding Drivers section.
