How to assign a driver to an order from Operations in Dumpster Controls

Every waiting order can get its driver directly from the order drawer, without opening the Dispatch board.

Before you start

  1. Open the order

    On any Operations tab, click the order row, or click its "Assign Driver" button to open the drawer with the "Driver Assignment" section already highlighted.

  2. Pick the driver

    The "Select driver" dropdown lists every active driver with their phone number, plus "Unassigned" to remove the current driver.

  3. Save

    Click "Save Assignment" (it reads "Reassign Driver" when changing drivers, or "Remove Driver" when unassigning). A toast confirms "Driver Assigned" with the driver and order.

What happens next

Troubleshooting

The save button stays disabled.

Nothing changed: you selected the driver who already holds the order. Pick a different driver or "Unassigned".
