The short version

  1. Open Trucks in the left menu. The list opens on Active trucks.
  2. Select a truck's Unit ID# to open its profile.
  3. The top of the profile shows the status, the repair flags and the key figures. The tabs below hold the details.
  4. Add a truck with New truck. Only Unit ID# is required.

Good to know

  • To take a truck out of use, set its status to Inactive. A reason is always required and is saved in the truck's Notes.
  • Out of Service, Needs Repair and Restricted Use are switched in the Repair status card on the Maintenance tab.
  • Insurance, annual inspection and IRP dates send reminder emails to the truck's vendor 30 days, 10 days and 0 days before they expire.
  • What you can see and change depends on your permissions.
