Manage user profiles from the Company Team page, where you can create, deactivate, and reactivate profiles. There are two roles a user can be within Dispatcher:

  • Administrator

  • Driver

How to Create a New User

If the profile for a prior team member already exists, refer to the instructions on reactivating a user before creating a new profile. You cannot use the same email address for multiple users, as the email address serves as their unique username and is used to reset passwords.

  1. Click Settings

  2. Click Company Team

  3. Click Add Team Member

  4. Fill out the appropriate details

  5. Click Save New Team Member

Send the password you created to the new user. Their email is their username.

Direct drivers to download the Dispatcher.com Mobile App on their device. Driver Training Resources: Dispatcher Video - New Driver Overview and Quick Start Guide for Drivers.

💡Dispatcher Tip: Download the Dispatcher.com Mobile App on your own device, create a test account, and test tickets to gain a driver’s perspective. This will help determine how to best utilize each field and feature to suit your team’s needs.

How to Deactivate a User

Deactivating a user will remove their access from Dispatcher. All active tickets assigned to the profile must be closed or reassigned prior to deactivation.

  1. Click Settings

  2. Click Company Team

  3. Click the appropriate user’s profile

  4. Click Deactivate User

How to Reactivate a User

Use this feature to restore all information associated with a former teammate. Since an email address serves as a unique username and is used to reset passwords, you cannot use the same email address for multiple users. Therefore, it’s important to reactivate profiles rather than create new ones.

  1. Click Settings

  2. Click Company Team

  3. Click Show Disabled

  4. Click the appropriate user’s profile

  5. Click Activate User
