Offer a trip to nearby drivers

With first-to-accept dispatching you do not pick a driver yourself. Transportial offers the trip to drivers nearby in the OpenMove app, and the first driver who accepts is assigned. This suits on-demand work and pools of drivers.

Offer a trip

1. Open the trip, for example from the plan board or the trip list.
2. Open the trip's options menu (the three dots) next to the pencil.
3. Choose Offer to nearby drivers.
4. Read the confirmation, which says how many drivers were offered the trip.
5. Wait for a driver to accept in OpenMove. The driver is then assigned to the trip.

The option is only available while the trip has no driver and is not in transit, pending completion, completed or canceled. Drivers are searched around the trip's first stop.

Withdraw the offer

1. Open the trip's options menu (the three dots).
2. Choose Withdraw open offers.
3. Read the confirmation with the number of offers withdrawn.

You can then assign a driver yourself. See Assign a vehicle and driver.
