Automatic purpose overview

Automate purpose is useful when you automatically want to set a purpose for a trip. It is a great way to stay tax compliant and saves your drivers manually adding the purpose in their Driver app. Additionally, filtering trips based on purpose is a great way of getting the data you need when it is time to invoice your customers.
