Add Vehicle
Fill compliance dates first
The most valuable part of the vehicle record is the compliance dates. Fill them in at the same time you add the vehicle so alerts fire correctly from day one.
Weight class and O-Licence
Setting Weight Class to 7.5 Tonne or above marks the vehicle as heavy and will show a warning on the Fleet hub if no Operator Licence has been added.
Common Mistakes
Entering compliance dates in the wrong format — use the date picker to avoid errors.
Leaving Tank Capacity blank when using fuel expense tracking means fill percentages cannot be calculated.
Setting fleet number to the registration — fleet numbers should be short internal codes.
