# Compliance column (Drivers/Assets table)

> What the Compliance column in the Dispatch Planner v2 Drivers/Assets table shows for external drivers, what each status and badge color means, and why a team shows the status it does.

Part of the [Dispatch Planner column reference](/en/help/loads-trips/dispatch-planner-columns).

The **Compliance** column shows the compliance status of external drivers, the drivers that come from carriers you work with. Use it to see at a glance whether an external driver has passed vetting before you try to assign them a trip. Hover over the header to see its full name, **External Compliance Status**.

## At a glance

| | |
| - | - |
| **Table** | Drivers/Assets |
| **Shown by default** | Yes |
| **Sort** | No. Clicking the header does not order drivers by compliance status. |
| **Filter** | None |
| **Who sees it** | Everyone who can open Dispatch Planner v2 |
| **Edit in the grid** | No. Set the status on the driver's profile. |

## What does each status mean?

| Status | Badge | Meaning |
| - | - | - |
| **Eligible** | Green | The driver passed compliance vetting and can be assigned. |
| **Pending** | Yellow | Vetting is not finished yet. The driver can still be assigned. |
| **Failed** | Red | The driver failed vetting and cannot be assigned to a trip. |
| **DNU** | Orange | Do Not Use. The driver cannot be assigned to a trip. |

A dash means no driver on the row has a compliance status. Company drivers never have one, so a row of company drivers always shows a dash.

If you try to assign an external driver whose status is **Failed** or **DNU** to a trip, Alvys blocks the assignment.

## Which status does a team show?

For a two-driver team, the column shows the most restrictive status of the two drivers, so a co-driver who cannot be assigned is never hidden behind one who can. From least to most restrictive, the order is:

1. **Eligible**
2. **Pending**
3. **Failed**
4. **DNU**

A driver with no status is skipped. If Driver 1 has no status and Driver 2 is **Failed**, the row shows **Failed**.

## Where does the status come from?

The status is the **Compliance Status** field on the driver's profile. The field appears only for external drivers, and changing it requires the **"Edit Asset"** permission. Clearing the field removes the status, and the column shows a dash.

## Why does a driver show a status I did not expect?

**The driver became a company driver.** If an external driver is given a contractor type, Alvys treats them as a company driver and clears their compliance status. The column then shows a dash.

**The other driver on the team set the status.** The column shows the most restrictive status across both drivers. Open each driver's profile to see their own status.

**You cannot filter or sort by status.** To find drivers with a given status, scan the badges in the column or check each driver's profile.
