Driver Location Preference

This page is accessed via Fleet Management > Power Data > General > Driver Location Preference.

The details capture the driving location preferences actual preferred and avoidable locations/regions/lanes that are applicable for a location preference.

Adding a Driver Location Preference:

Ranking only works WITHIN lane and region, not across location, lane, region. In other words, OTM will use the location if there is one. If not, OTM will use the highest-ranked lane and finally the highest-ranked region.

Only one record will ever be returned because of the hierarchy described above. If there is more than one record matching the same location/lane/region, OTM will throw an error. So you cannot have prefer and avoid at the same time and there cannot be overlap.
