Dispatchers with this permission can only create drivers for the teams to which they are themselves assigned.

Allow to Change Skills on a Driver

This permission only applies when skills are enabled for the organization.  It is also dependent on the user having access to the Driver Profile and Allow to Change Skills on a Driver permissions.

Dispatchers can only update profiles of users belonging to the same team as the dispatcher.

This permission is required in order for other permissions related to driver profiles, like creating and editing skills, to work.

Edit Delivery Blocks

Allows the user to add new delivery blocks and change existing ones.
If permission is not enabled, a user can only view delivery blocks but not save changes.

Editing Distance On Cash out/Debrief

Display the Cash Out and Debrief buttons on the Drivers page, allowing the user to perform these actions.

If you see a permission in the platform that does not appear in any of the indexed lists, verify that it is not a no longer supported permission.
