Description	Additional information about the driver. This is shown in the driver’s tooltip.
Phone number	The driver’s phone number. It should be indicated in the international format (for example, +614). The phone number is shown in the driver’s tooltip.
Mobile key	The driver’s password, this can be used to set up a login for the driver on our seperate systems.
Exclusive	The option which allows you to avoid assigning several drivers to one unit at the same time. Take the following peculiarities into account: In order for the option to work correctly, all the drivers should belong to one resource. The option works only in real time and cannot be used when registering shifts for a past period. If the option is enabled, then when assigning this driver to a unit, all drivers assigned to this unit earlier are removed automatically. The option is applied only to previous assignments. For example, if a driver with this option enabled is assigned to the unit, and later another driver with this option disabled is assigned to this unit, then both drivers are assigned at the same time. However, if the option is enabled for the second driver, the first driver is removed from the unit automatically.
Custom fields	Custom fields with additional information about the driver. They are shown in the driver’s tooltip. To add a custom field, enter its name, value (optional), and click on the icon .
