The Allocated Resources screen will be displayed - depending on your configuration, it may be one of two:
* [[Allocate Resources]]
* [[Allocate Resources (Diary)]]


The Drivers, Tractors and Trailers that appear in the bottom of the screen are those available to be allocated to the current trip. Only Drivers and Tractors linked to the Carrier assigned to the trip are available for selection. If a Trailer Type has already been assigned to the trip then only Trailers linked to that Trailer Type are available for selection, but if no Trailer Type has been assigned, then all Trailers will be available. See the [[Resources]] screen for the set up of these links. Note, that if a Trailer Type has already been assigned when entering the form, the user will be unable to change it at this point.  
These are covered in the following sections.


If a Trailer Type has not been assigned, this can be done using the 'V' lookup button next to that field in the header. Those resources that are currently in use between the trips start time and finish time are high-lighted in grey to show the user they are currently in use, although they can still be allocated.


To assign a resource, select it from the list and click the associated 'Assign' button. When assigned, the name/id will appear in the header. Use the 'Remove' button if a resource needs to be removed. Once happy that resources have been added, click 'Save'. If during a 'Save', all resources have been added to a PLANNED trip, the system will automatically update the trip status to ACCEPTED. When you 'Close' the form and return to the Trip Overview screen, the trip will now be moved from the PLANNED section to the ACCEPTED section.
