Setup and configuration of pickup locations in your system can be done in the following way:
Add a city or town
- From the menu click Settings | Manage Pickup Locations | Cities and Towns
- Click Create City/Town and enter the information. Click Save.
Add a pickup location
- From the menu click Settings | Manage Pickup Locations | Pickup Locations
- Click Create Pickup Location and enter the information. The City/Town field will make use of the cities and towns that you configured in the first step. The group field can be used to configure and group together pickup locations which are common. For example, 'All downtown pickups'.
Add a pickup group
- From the menu click Settings | Manage Pickup Locations | Groups
- Click Create Group from the shortcuts menu.
- Enter your grouping name and information. The colour pickup will attach a colour to the pickup group. This is used for colour coding on passenger pickup sheets so that drivers/guides can visually see all pickups they have in a particular group or area of the city or town. The 'override pickup message', if you enter it, will override the system generated pickup messages that show on the clients itinerary. This field allows you to customize this message and override those system messages.
