Vehicle

The Vehicle screen displays a licensee’s or customer’s vehicles. If you can access more than one licensee, select a licensee (on the Licensee screen) before working with this screen.

The Vehicle screen consists of five tabs:

·         Vehicle List displays summary information for one or more vehicles, and allows you to choose a vehicle to work with.

·         Vehicle Detail displays more information about a specific vehicle. If you are authorized to do so, you can add or change information on this and the following tabs.

·         Vehicle Limits displays limits and other information for a specific vehicle.

·         Vehicle Exemptions displays tax exemption information for a specific vehicle.

·         Pre-Embossed Cards allows authorized users to assign a pre-embossed card to a vehicle. This tab is visible only if the customer has pre-embossed cards available.

To access the Vehicle screen, do one of the following:

·         Select a customer on the full-mode Customer screen, and then select Customer -> View Vehicles from the drop-down menu:

Selecting View Vehicles from the action list has the same effect.

·         Select a card on the Card screen and then select Card -> View Vehicles from the drop-down menu. Selecting View Vehicles from the action list has the same effect.

·         Select Vehicle -> Find from the drop-down menu:

This can be slower than the previous two options. You can improve performance by entering search criteria on the Vehicle List tab to narrow the search results.

Vehicle List

This tab displays summary information for a specified group of vehicles.

The Vehicle List tab contains an action list:

 

Each action item performs the following function:

Copy – Copies the selected vehicle to a Vehicle Detail tab, where you can modify it.

Lock – Locks the vehicle record. You must enter a reason on the Vehicle Detail tab.

Unlock – Unlocks the vehicle record and saves the change.

Issue – Issues a card. See Issuing a Card for a Vehicle.

Reissue – Reissues the existing card and saves the request. See Reissuing a Card in the Card chapter for more information.

Replace – If this customer has no pre-embossed cards available, this command replaces the existing card and assigns a new card number. See Replacing a Card in the Card chapter.

If this customer does have pre-embossed cards available, you will be offered the choice of a system-assigned card number (same behavior as above) or of a pre-embossed card. Choosing the pre-embossed card option navigates you to the Pre-Embossed Cards tab, where you can select the card.

View Cards – Search for the cards associated with the vehicle on the Card List tab. To view the card’s expiration date, select the card there, and then click on the Card Detail tab.

View Transactions – Search for transactions associated with the vehicle on the Transaction List tab.

Commit Batch – If this customer’s cards are produced by SourceOne, this command sends the Queued cards to SourceOne to be processed.

Note: Before the card order is sent, the Shipping Address window will appear, to allow you to confirm or change the shipping address.

 

If you are within the Vehicle screens, you can also access most of these actions via the drop-down menu:

Find and Add are the only two vehicle options available until you arrive at the Vehicle List tab.

The tab’s data fields are as follows:

If the driver enters a reading of less than 5250, the transaction will be approved. However, if the driver enters 5500, an exception will be reported on the customer’s exception report.

Setting a range for a vehicle might cause some transactions to be reported as exceptions unnecessarily, causing the customer extra research to determine if there is a problem. For example, if a driver is traveling a long distance and has to fuel outside the network, they must report the offsite fueling to the Call Center so that a manual transaction can be entered. However, if the driver must fuel before the manual transaction has been posted, FleetNet will report the transaction as an exception due to the odometer being outside of the expected range. Therefore, ranges are best used for vehicles that remain within your licensed territory.

You will be navigated to the Vehicle Limits tab to complete the vehicle entry after pressing [Enter] or [Tab].

Note: Pressing Save after completing the Expected Range field will accept the vehicle as entered and set the limits at the system defaults. (See Updating or Setting Vehicle Limits for the defaults, and instructions on how to set vehicle limits.) Also see Issuing a Card for a Vehicle (If Printed via the AS/400) and Issuing a Card for a Vehicle (If Printed via SourceOne) regarding issuing a card to the new vehicle.
