Create Asset Assignment automatically from vehicle resources
When Optimizer assigns a Domicile Vehicle Availability (DVA) record to a Load/Trip/Booking and creates vehicle resources for the Load/Trip/Booking during the write-back, it will also create/update Asset Assignments for the assets which are mapped with the corresponding Domicile Vehicle record.
Resource records which are created by methods other than Optimizer (like Rate/Rate Shop) will also have a corresponding Asset assignment created if Domicile Vehicle-Asset mapping exists.
Any update made to the Resource record will automatically update the corresponding Asset Assignment and any update made to the Asset Assignment will update the corresponding Resource record.
- The updates will happen via RRS call instead of direct update.
- Assets Business Hours will be honored while creating assignments.
Validations/restrictions which prevent creation of asset assignment like equipment, service, commodity and other restrictions with respect to the asset and also User’s permission to create asset assignment with violations will be honored, failing which Driver Assignment will not be created.
If the assignment is created outside of the asset’s business hours, then the assignment will be created with business hours violation which will be properly represented in Asset Assignment List and Properties in Transportation Smartbench and in AssetAssignmentType API.
