### Fill the Basic Details

- Fill in the basic details of the agent, such as their **name, email address, and contact number (with country code)**. You will also need to **create a password&#x20;**&#x66;or their login. Optionally, you can also upload a profile photo of the agent.

**Note:** The sign-up button is also available on the driver apps for any rider to register. Therefore, the Driver can directly sign up from the Driver app as well

:::hint{type="warning"}
**Note:** If a driver signs up on their own using the Driver App, they will be set to **“Suspended”&#x20;**&#x62;y default. To allow them to start using the app and accept deliveries, the admin must manually change their status to **“Active”&#x20;**&#x66;rom the Agents section.

## Managing Agent Settings

Once an agent is created, you will see several options next to their profile. These controls help you manage how the agent is set up and operates on the platform.



### Duty Status (Availability Control)

This toggle controls whether the agent is **available to take orders**.

### Activate/Suspend Riders&#x20;

This feature acts as an additional check for Admins to approve a rider's registration, marking them as active, or suspending them at any time to prevent login in the future.

### Override Driver Earnings

By default, you can configure a common earnings structure for all drivers from the **Driver Earnings** section. This is useful when you need to set specific earnings structures for selected drivers.

You can also configure **individual driver earnings** directly from the **Agents** section. This provides greater flexibility for businesses that work with drivers on different commission models, incentive structures, or contractual agreements.

If you want to set a different payout structure for a specific driver, simply **enable the Override Earnings&#x20;**&#x6F;ption for that driver and configure their individual earnings accordingly.

:::hint{type="info"}
**Note:&#x20;**&#x54;o learn how to configure the earnings structure, refer to the [Driver Earnings Configuration](https://help.hyperzod.com/driver-earnings#setting-up-driver-earnings-rules) guide. The same configuration options can be used when setting up earnings for an individual driver.
