Feature · Vehicle & Fleet Management

See what every truck has cost you since the day you bought it.

One line per vehicle, climbing from the day it joined the fleet. The truck that eats your margin stops being a hunch and becomes a line on a chart — with the service alarms, the papers and the repair history alongside it.

VIN, documents and driver on every record4 of 4 roadworthy

Know what you own

The paperwork runs out on a date. Watch it run down.

  • Every truck, one record

    Year, model, plate, VIN, type and class — and which of your people is driving it. One record per vehicle instead of a folder in the cab.

  • Papers with time left on them

    Inspection and registration are dates on the vehicle, so the bar empties as the day approaches. The morning a truck becomes unroadworthy stops being a surprise.

  • Documents on the record

    Registration, insurance, the last inspection certificate — attached to the vehicle, where the person who needs them can find them.

Chipper truck · 59,580 of 60,000 mi

The alarm was set on the odometer, not a date. It has run 6,380 of the 6,800 miles since its last service, and fires when the reading gets there — whichever week that turns out to be.

Before it breaks

Alarms that fire on a date or a mileage

  • Two ways to be due

    An inspection comes round on a date; an oil change comes round on the odometer. Set either, and the alarm waits for whichever one it was given.

  • The odometer comes from the work

    Every repair invoice, maintenance report and accident carries the mileage it happened at, so the line climbs on its own. Nobody is asked to type a reading in twice.

  • A breakdown is the expensive version

    A missed service costs a day of that crew's revenue plus the tow. The alarm costs nothing.

Know what it costs

Half your repair bill is on one truck. Which one?

  • Every repair against the vehicle it was spent on

    Date, mileage, mechanic, invoice number and cost — itemised into the repair types you name yourself. “Is this one worth keeping?” gets an answer instead of an argument.

  • Accidents with the claim attached

    What happened, which driver, what mileage, plus the claim number and the police report number — on the record, months later, when the insurer asks.

  • Voided invoices leave the chart

    Void one and the line redraws without it. The lifetime figure is what you actually paid, not what you were once quoted.

It finds you

You don't go looking for the alarm. It comes to the page.

  • Thirty days' warning on the papers

    Registration and inspection each raise their own warning a month before the date falls due — and it clears itself the moment the date on the vehicle is updated. Nothing to tick off.

  • The alarm promotes itself

    A daily pass moves every due alarm from scheduled to outstanding: on its date, or when the highest mileage recorded anywhere on that vehicle reaches the number you set. Open the alarms list and a missed pass is repaired before you see a stale row.

  • Counted on the page, not buried in a digest

    Vehicles and alarms each carry their own needs-attention count on the Vehicles page itself, so the number sits where the work is instead of in an email you archive.
