New Drivers

Drivers are required to operate the SolBox platform, and are assigned to manifests, vehicles and complete manifest on the driver app. Each driver must have a unique name and login to the driver app. Each driver also requires an assigned timetable based on the working hours and orders that will be assigned to them. Each driver must have a start and finish location in their profile, which will be the depot or changed within the driver profile. Drivers can be added and passwords can be created to give drivers access via the mobile app at any time. Each manifest requires a driver and vehicle assigned to complete an order on the driver app.

Update as of APRIL 2024:

We are excited to announce that we have recently made a significant update to the Manifest Order View to provide you with more comprehensive and detailed information about the cost of your driver. With this update, you can view a breakdown of the cost of driver hours and vehicle kilometers, with a separate total for each category. This means you will have access to more specific information regarding the expenses associated with your driver, allowing you to make more informed decisions in managing your business.
