Personnel Setup

Assign personnel to Atlas supported branches and to the Atlas interface using this setup. 

For supported sales people (Sales) and estimators (OA surveyor), provide their Atlas sales number as the User ID setting for the Atlas interface within the Interface Mapping tab.  For supported drivers, enter their Atlas Driver Number within the Dispatch tab. 

Note: Coordinators are currently not support.

User ID and Driver Number Format:

The format of the User ID and Driver Number is the agent code (minimum of four digits, zero-filled) followed by the Atlas employee code (up to five digits). For example, Agency of “777” and employee code of “999” would result in “0777-999”.

For Auto Dispatching:

Verify that drivers referenced by an Atlas order are setup for Auto Dispatching and their Driver Number is in the correct format.

Security Profile Setup

Allow users to process Atlas statements by assigning to their profiles the “Atlas Statement Integration” Security Module.  When this module is assigned to a user, they will be able to select the Atlas Statement option through the Import drop-down in Payment Management.

Only one assignment per profile is necessary; it applies to all branches (see Security Modules).
