This article explains how you can add drivers to groups from the Drivers page.
Why Use Driver Groups
Driver groups help you organize drivers based on operational needs, making assignments and workflows easier to manage while simplifying filtering, planning, and day-to-day driver management.
For example, you can group drivers by delivery zone so you can quickly find and assign the right drivers for a specific area. Drivers can also be grouped by vehicle type, skills, etc.
Identifying the Right Drivers
Before adding drivers to a group — either individually or in bulk — it’s recommended to first narrow down the list of drivers you want to work with. While optional, this step helps you stay organized and ensures the right drivers are assigned to the right group.
You can do this by using the search bar at the top right of the page or by applying filters to refine the drivers list based on specific criteria. Filters include:
Status (on duty, off duty, or disabled)
Vehicle (to group drivers using specific vehicle types)
Groups (to add drivers to or manage existing groups)
Tags (to group drivers sharing the same tag)
Skills (such as pickups, transfers, deliveries, or returns)
How are Drivers Added to Groups
Drivers can be added to groups in two ways, based on whether you’re assigning one driver or several drivers at the same time:
Individual Assignment – Best used when adding or updating a single driver’s group.
Bulk Assignment – Best used when assigning multiple drivers to a group or updating the group of several drivers at once.
Add a Driver to a Group (Individual Assignment)
Follow the step-by-step guide below to see how you can assign an individual driver to a group.
Note: Drivers can also be assigned to a group during the initial creation process when adding them to your workspace.
Add Multiple Drivers to a Group (Bulk Assignment)
In this method, all selected drivers are added to a single group at once.
Use the step-by-step guide below to learn how to add multiple drivers to a group in bulk.
Confirming the Group Assignment
After adding a driver to a group, you can confirm the action directly from the Drivers table. The assigned group will appear in the Group column within the driver’s row.
This allows you to quickly verify that the driver was added to the correct group.
Important Notes
If the group you want to add the driver to already exists, make sure to enter the group name exactly as it exists — including spelling and spacing — to ensure the driver is added to the correct group.
If the group does not yet exist, entering a new name will create the group automatically. The newly created group's name becomes its unique identifier.
You can update a driver’s group at any time by modifying the value in the Group field. This allows you to easily move drivers between groups as operational needs change.
For better segmentation, it’s recommended to use tags in addition to driver groups. Tags allow you to further classify drivers within the same group, making it easier to filter, manage, and operate large fleets efficiently.
