This video explains how to set up auto-assign rules and how this works in practice:

📚 A few things to know about trip matching:

  • Matching only happens when an order is created, so trips made by hand, or before you switched the rule on, are never joined. There's no capacity check, so a trip keeps taking orders however big it gets.

  • And once a trip is dispatched or in progress, it stops accepting orders. Those orders stay in To plan for a planner to handle.
