Bulk Actions

Bulk actions let you classify, annotate, or assign drivers to multiple trips in a single operation. This is the fastest way to process a backlog of unclassified trips or to correct a batch of mis-tagged records.

Selecting Trips​

Individual Selection​

Each row in the trips table has a checkbox in the leftmost column. Click it to select that trip. Click again to deselect. Selected rows are highlighted to make the current selection clear at a glance.

Select All​

The checkbox in the column header selects every trip currently visible in the table — meaning all trips that match your active filters, not just those scrolled into view. This is the recommended way to act on all unclassified trips: filter the table to Unclassified status first, then use Select All.

tip

If you want to select all trips for a specific vehicle during a specific period, set the unit selector and date range first, then click Select All. Bulk actions will apply only to the filtered result.

Deselecting​

Click the header checkbox again to deselect everything, or use the X button in the floating action bar. Individual rows can be deselected by clicking their checkboxes directly.

The Floating Action Bar​

As soon as one or more trips are selected, a floating action bar appears at the bottom of the screen. It stays visible as you scroll, so you can keep selecting rows without losing access to the actions.

The bar contains:

  • Selected count — shows how many trips are currently selected, for example "14 trips selected".
  • Business button — marks all selected trips as Business (green label).
  • Personal button — marks all selected trips as Personal (purple label).
  • Note button — opens a text input to add or replace notes on all selected trips.
  • Assign Driver button — opens the driver assignment modal.
  • X button — clears the entire selection without making any changes.
info

All bulk actions are applied optimistically: the table updates immediately and the change is persisted to the backend in the background. If the save fails, a toast notification appears and the rows revert to their previous state.

Classifying Trips​

Mark as Business​

Click the green Business button in the action bar. All selected trips are immediately reclassified as Business. Their row tint updates to green and the status column reflects the new value.

Mark as Personal​

Click the purple Personal button in the action bar. All selected trips are reclassified as Personal. Row tints update to purple.

Reclassifying trips does not affect any other field — notes, driver assignment, and speed data are preserved.

tip

For mileage reimbursement workflows, classify all trips as Personal first, then go back and mark the business trips individually (or in batches per vehicle). This makes it easier to catch anything you might have missed, since the default state after bulk-Personal is zero unclassified trips remaining.

Adding Notes​

Click the Note button in the action bar. A text input dialog opens with a single field.

  • Type the note text you want to apply.
  • Confirm to write that note to every selected trip.
  • If any selected trips already have a note, confirming will overwrite those notes.

This is useful for adding batch context such as "Monthly delivery run" or "Sales conference travel" to a group of trips without editing each one individually.

info

Notes are plain text only. There is no character limit enforced by FleetTAB, but very long notes may be truncated in PDF exports to preserve table layout. Full note text is always included in CSV exports.

Assigning a Driver​

Click the Assign Driver button in the action bar to open the driver assignment modal.

Driver Assignment Workflow​

  1. The modal loads a searchable list of all drivers configured in your Wialon account.
  2. Type any part of a driver's name to filter the list.
  3. Select the driver you want to assign.
  4. Click Assign to confirm.

All selected trips are updated to show the chosen driver's name in the Driver column. If the trips were previously assigned to a different driver, that assignment is replaced.

Unassigning a Driver​

To remove driver assignment from a batch of trips, open the driver assignment modal and select the No driver option at the top of the list, then confirm. The Driver column will be blank for those trips after the operation completes.

tip

Driver assignment is particularly useful when Wialon's automatic driver identification (iButton or RFID) is not in use. Use the unit filter to select all trips for a given vehicle in a period, then assign the known driver in one step.

info

Driver assignment in FleetTAB writes back to the Wialon platform. Changes are reflected in Wialon reports and other connected tools that read from the same data source.

Clearing the Selection​

Click the X button in the floating action bar, or click the header checkbox a second time, to clear all selections. The action bar disappears and the table returns to its normal state. No changes are made to any trips when you clear the selection.
