Add Drivers – Create New User Profiles For Truck Drivers On Route4Me

Route4Me enables enterprise businesses to easily create trucker profiles. This enables drivers to seamlessly log in to their account, confirm vehicles, and plan and navigate truck routes to customers, truck stops, and any other type of destination.

Route4Me offers several ways to add users to your team. You can create profiles manually, bulk upload via spreadsheet, or send email invites to new team members. To view your team’s reporting structure, use the “Tree View” toggle at the top of the page.

Open Your Users Page

To create a new user, go to “Team & Equipment” > “Users” in the Navigation Menu, then, from your Users page, click “Add User(s)“. Alternatively, click the Down Arrow Button next to an existing user and select “Add Sub-User“.

Your ability to view and manage users depends on your User Type. Based on your permissions, you can add sub-users with different roles and assign them under your account or another team member.

Next, click the “Create” tab to manually set up a new user account. Fill in the required profile fields, then click “Create User” to add the user to your team. Learn more about creating new users on Route4Me TMS.

Manage Drivers – Edit Commercial Driver Profile Details And Settings

On your Users page, you can view and manage all users associated with your Route4Me account. Likewise, each user can see and manage the sub-users assigned under them.

Open Your Vehicles List

Before you can finalize a Commercial Vehicle Profile, you’ll need to make sure all the Vehicle’s “General“, “Fuel“, and “Details” settings are complete and that its status is set to “Is Operational“. This ensures it appears in your list of assignable vehicles for routes. Learn more about adding and managing vehicles.

To create a new Commercial Vehicle, you need to select or create a Vehicle Profile with commercial vehicle details such as height, weight, axle count, etc. Scroll down to “Vehicle Profile“, located in the “Details” section, select a profile, and click “Create Vehicle” when done.

Alternatively, click “Manage Vehicle Profiles” to create a new Commercial Profile or manage existing ones. You’ll be redirected to the Vehicle Profiles page, where you can see your existing Vehicle Profiles and create new ones.

Assign Facilities To Commercial Drivers And Commercial Vehicles

When Users and Vehicle have the same Facility assigned to them, truckers can use Route4Trucks to confirm the details of Vehicles assigned to the same Facility. To assign a Facility to a User, go to “Team & Equipment” > “Users” in the Navigation Menu, click the Down Arrow next to a User, select “Assign Facility“, input a Facility name in the “Assign Facility” window, and click “OK“.

You can also select “Edit” from the User Management actions menu and assign a Facility. Learn more about editing Users.

The process is the same for assigning a Facility to a truck. Go to “Team & Equipment” > “Vehicles” in the Navigation Menu, click the Down Arrow next to a Vehicle, select “Assign Facility“, input a Facility name in the “Assign Facility” window, and click “OK“.

You can also select “Edit” from the Vehicle Management actions menu and assign a Facility. Learn more about editing Vehicles.

After you’ve assigned a Facility to a User and a Commercial Vehicle, the User can seamlessly confirm Facility Vehicles directly from Route4Trucks by following the steps below:

1. Tap “All Vehicles” on the “Select Vehicle” screen.
2. Tap to select the corresponding Facility from the list of Facilities assigned to the respective User.
3. Tap to select a vehicle from the list of Vehicles with the same assigned Facility.

NOTE: The Route4Trucks app for company truckers shows all vehicles assigned to the same Facilities as the User to help your commercial drivers always find and confirm the details of the correct vehicle.
