Priority

Priority level when there are overlapping criteria. If 2 priority values are the same, the lowest "Geofence Radius (miles)" value will be used.

Example: Different Priority

Image RemovedImage Added

A driver is picking up an order for a customer, and two different Geofencing configurations apply.  The applicable settings differ in "Geofence Radius (miles)" and "Priority". Since the driver has "Priority" set to 1 and the customer a "Priority" of 2, the "Geofence Radius (miles)" set for the driver will be used.

Example: Same Priority

Image RemovedImage Added

A driver is picking up an order for a customer and multiple different Geofencing settings apply, with differing "Geofence Radius (miles)" and the same "Priority" level. Since the driver "Geofence Radius (miles)" is set to "1" and the customer has it set to "5", the "Geofence Radius (miles)" set for the driver will be used.
