📦Your first delivery

This workflow starts at Odoo web as assigning drivers to the orders can be done either manually or based on the dispatch rules.

To create a dispatch rule, see the Creating a dispatch rule guide.

When left unassigned, drivers using Nextway Mobile App can see the job order as unassigned and they can accept the job order for themselves. The workflow ends with the job order assigned and completed using the Nextway Mobile App.
