How to Activate or Deactivate a Driver in Optimus Paper

In Optimus Paper, you can easily manage your driver roster by activating or deactivating drivers as needed.

When a driver is marked as Inactive:

• You will no longer receive email alerts or calendar notifications for expiring documents tied to that driver.
• The driver will not count as an active seat on your subscription plan.
• Their information will remain saved in your system and can be reactivated at any time.
• Keep all historical data and documents, nothing is deleted when a driver is deactivated.

This is ideal for seasonal drivers who work only during certain times of the year or temporary hires brought on during high-demand periods. When you're ready to bring them back, simply reactivate the profile.

To update a driver’s status, follow these steps:

1. From the main menu (top left), click on “Database” and select “Drivers.”
2. Use the search bar at the top of the table to locate the driver you want to modify.
3. Without clicking into the driver’s profile, go to the “Status” column.
4. Click on the current status (either “Active” or “Inactive”) to switch it.

The change will apply immediately.
