Manually assign a delivery
Last updated: December 6, 2024
Sometimes, manual assignment is necessary when automatic assignment is delayed or specific providers are required for urgent deliveries. Follow these steps:
Navigate to the Delivery Details Page
Select Deliveries from the left sidebar to view the delivery history.
Find the delivery and select View Details to open its page.
Access Assignment Options
Select the Reassign button in the top-right corner.
In the pop-up, uncheck the cancel box if you want to keep the current task active.
After reassignment, a new task will appear in Created status.
Select the Task to Assign
In the assignment window, select the newly created task.
Choose a Provider
Review available providers on the left, including their quotes and details.
Select your preferred provider.
Confirm the Assignment
Select Assign Provider at the bottom.
Nash will confirm the assignment with a notification.
Monitor the Delivery
The delivery details page updates with provider-specific information.
Track progress using the status history timeline.
Important Considerations
Manual assignment overrides dispatch strategies, including auto-reassignment.
Monitor manually assigned deliveries closely to ensure completion.
If reassignment fails, cancel the delivery and create a new one.
Reassign or refresh quotes as needed.
By manually assigning deliveries, you maintain control over provider selection, ensuring flexibility and timely management.
