Morning text message reminder for bus drivers with the bus changes.

Question

Its possible to add a option that every morning at a scheduled time a few minutes before the route, the drivers should receive a text message with the bus changes for their upcoming route?

The text message should contain the basic info like childs name, address change, and the phone number.

 

The dispatcher is starting the shift at 9 AM so no one from the office is in when the drivers start the 8 o'clock route to make sure that they have the changes in mind.

 

Thank you

Could you please also add the option to enter two cell phone numbers for drivers in the Bus Manager?

Added. Need to contact support to update your server.

In order to setup you need to enter the driver cell number in the driver cell column. You also need to set for the bus SMSBusChanges setting.

You need to have an SMS account setup in the software.

Yes, you can add a comma and have two numbers.

For example

7189876543,9179876543

Everything is working well, thank you.

Could you please adjust it so that I only receive text messages when there is a bus change? If there are no changes, I do not want to receive any text messages.

Thank you!
