Common questions

Quick answers to the things people ask most about this part of NestPoint.

  • How do I handle a no-show?

    Mark the ride a no-show from the day's dispatch list. It stays on the record so you can spot a pattern and follow up.

  • Can I set up a standing weekly ride?

    Yes. Set up a recurring run for the weekday and time, then add the members who ride it. NestPoint builds those rides ahead of time, so a Tuesday pickup doesn't have to be re-entered every week. Use Generate now to extend the schedule further out.

  • How does a driver know their stops for the day?

    Group their pickups into a run, then move each stop up or down until they sit in the order you want them driven. Export the day's driver sheet as a spreadsheet to hand over, so nobody has to phone in for the list.

  • What if two rides need the same vehicle at the same time?

    NestPoint flags the overlap when you assign the vehicle, so you can move one ride before it becomes a problem on the day.
