Driver Profiles

Drivers are the volunteers or staff members who transport pets between locations. Each driver profile contains their contact information, license details, and transport history.

To add a driver to your roster:

1. Navigate to More → Transports
2. Make sure you're on the Drivers tab
3. Click the Add Driver button
4. Fill in the driver information:
   • Name (required): The driver's full name
   • Email: Contact email address
   • Phone: Contact phone number
   • License Number: Driver's license identifier
   • Is Active: Toggle to set if the driver is currently available
5. Click Save to create the driver profile

Viewing Driver Information

The drivers list shows key information at a glance:

Driver Statistics

When viewing a driver's profile, you'll see:

• Total Trips: The number of transports they've completed
• Total Miles: The cumulative distance they've driven

These statistics are automatically calculated based on completed transports and cannot be edited manually.

Deactivating Drivers

If a driver is no longer available:

1. Open their profile
2. Toggle the Is Active switch to off
3. Save the changes

Inactive drivers remain in your system for historical records but won't appear in the driver selection when creating new transports.

Deleting Drivers

To permanently remove a driver:

1. Open their profile
2. Click the Delete button
3. Confirm the deletion

Note: Deleting a driver will remove them from the system, but historical transport records will be preserved.
