Summary
The following article explains how to create/amend a code for a vehicle to allow you to allocate this to a Logistics Ticket.
More Information
Go to " Logistics Management Maintenance Options Add or Edit Vehicles".
- Click [Add].
- In the "Vehicle" field, enter a vehicle code, e.g. the Registration Number, and press <Enter>.
- Enter the vehicle description and registration number in the "Description" field and press <Enter>.
- Press <Esc> or click [Done] and click [Accept].
Additional Fields
The remaining fields can be completed where relevant but are not mandatory.
Current
Over a period of time vehicles are added and removed from the fleet. In order to hold historic information it is often useful to keep vehicle records on file even after they are no longer used. Indicate here whether this vehicle is currently available for work.
Sales Centre
Enter an optional sales centre to associate with this vehicle. This allows the accounts department to analyse the revenue of this vehicle. If left blank the default centre for the Logistics system will be applied.
Usual
If there is a specific driver for this vehicle enter their code here.
- Press <F1/S-F1> to scroll through existing drivers or <Ctrl+F1> to search for a driver.
- To add a new driver press <Ctrl+F1> and click [Add]. See How do I Create a New Driver?.
Entering a driver code here will mean that when the vehicle is allocated to a job or load, the driver will automatically also be allocated. This can be overwritten on the ticket.
Mobile
Enter the number of the mobile phone usually kept in this vehicle. The mobile number of a driver will take precedence over a number entered here.
