The default status of a client record is Active. When a client no longer requires transportation, you can update their client record status to either "On Hold" or "Inactive".
"Active" vs "On Hold" vs "Inactive"
- Active: This is the default status of a client record. Active clients can have trips scheduled and will show up throughout RoutingBox when performing a search, dispatching trips or running reports.
- On Hold: Typically used when a client is temporarily ceasing transportation services. You will not be allowed to schedule a trip for a client that is marked as On Hold. Any currently scheduled trips for the client will remain in the Scheduled status but will not appear on the Dispatch screen
- Inactive: Typically used when a client is permanently ceasing transportation services. Inactive clients will not appear throughout RoutingBox. They can only be found by searching with the client search filter of either "all" or "inactive". Making a client Inactive will prompt the system to ask you if you want to cancel all of their outstanding trips.
