Managing Your Fleet: Carrier’s Guide to CoyoteGO
Taking the time to set up your profile will help you and your team get the most out of your CoyoteGO® experience.
The My Fleet section of CoyoteGO for North American carriers allows you to:
- Manage your company directory
- Assign user permissions
- Set preferences for your fleet
- Upload important payment documents
- Access your carrier scorecard
Adding Your Team to Your Company Directory
CoyoteGO is not just for drivers — anyone that works for your trucking company can benefit from using our digital freight platform. That includes fleet owners, dispatchers, compliance officers, back office and billing personnel.
CoyoteGO accounts are given at the carrier level: one Motor Carrier (MC) number = one CoyoteGO account.
However, within each CoyoteGO account, you can have as many users as you need.
There are five different types of users available in CoyoteGO (more on these below), and the process for adding users will differ by type.
To add a new “Driver” user account, simply go to My Fleet then select Company Directory. In the bottom right corner, hit “Add Contact” and enter their information, including name, contact information and user type.
To protect your account’s security, user types with more permissions within CoyoteGO (Dispatcher, Dispatcher-Driver, Owner-Operator and Admin) must be added with assistance from our team. Contact your Coyote rep to add users from these four types to your company account.
Note: when building or editing a contact, there is a checkbox for CoyoteGO access. If you do not have the box selected, the user cannot access your company’s CoyoteGO account information.
This may be useful if, for instance, you have a driver you want to assign to a load, but do not want them to be able to see and adjust details.
5 User Types: Driver, Dispatcher, Dispatcher-Driver, Owner-Operator and Admin Settings
To give the best experience to each CoyoteGO user, there are five unique user types: driver, dispatcher, dispatcher-driver, owner-operator and admin.
Let’s look at what each user type can and can’t do, and how to set which user gets which type.
How to Set User Types
Only the Dispatcher, Dispatcher-Driver and Admin have permission to set or edit user types.
When a contact is built (in the Company Directory page), a user-type must be selected.
Similar to adding new users to CoyoteGO, the only user type you can manually update without assistance from your rep is the Driver type. To edit Driver users, go to the Company Directory, click the pen icon on the contact you want to edit, and adjust in the dropdown menu in the pop up.
To update all other user types, please contact your Coyote rep.
