What is a dedicated resource on Dashdoc?
A dedicated resource (driver, vehicle, trailer) is a resource that you use regularly to carry out some of your activities, but that you do not own; it is not part of your fleet or your employees. These resources may be available "full-time", but the transport carried out by a dedicated trucker is not done on your behalf.

How do I create a dedicated resource ?

When you create a dedicated driver, you have two options for sending him assignments: either via the Dashdoc mobile application or by email.
Depending on the preference you choose, Dashdoc will send the mission accordingly, either in bulk (from the scheduler) or one by one from the transport page. New columns now give you an overview of the type of resources created and the means of communication chosen.
Assigning and sending missions to drivers

From the scheduler. You have the option of displaying a view with just your dedicated resources or mixing your different resources (own drivers, chartered carriers, dedicated drivers).
