Prev Next

The Fleet Management Console displays Driver, Fleet Asset, Load, Map, and Calendar view information for managing Fleet operations. Four primary functions are completed with the Fleet Management Console. The banner contains a picklist with the options below. This article details the available functions for creating and using Fleet Management Console views. For initial setup information, see the article for the Fleet Management Module.

  1. Fleet Management

  2. Trip Planning

  3. Appointment Setting

  4. Equipment Management

Follow the links to Trip Planning, Appointment Setting, and Equipment Management for specific view information.

Zone Logic

Create Zones with the Fleet box Checked to include Zones when managing a Fleet. The movement of Fleet Assets into and out of (inbound/outbound) Zones may be used to filter Fleet Assets. The following record types are located in a particular Zone based on the associated rules.

  • Appointments

    • The appointment Account location.

  • Drivers

    • Seated Drivers: the current Truck location.

    • Unseated Drivers: the Driver Domicile.

  • Equipment (Trailers/Chassis/Containers)

    • Equipment is attached to a truck: the current Truck location.

    • Equipment is not attached to a truck: the last Drop Off location.

  • Fleet Assets (Trucks/Box Truck/Tractors/Power Units)

    • Fleet Assets not on a Trip Plan or Dispatched on a Load: current Truck location.

    • Fleet Assets on a Trip Plan: final Planned Truck location.

  • Loads

    • Loads not on a Trip Plan: Origin Pickup location.

    • Loads on a Trip Plan: any Pickup location.

Manage Views

The Fleet Management Console Lightning Web Component is the primary component for performing Fleet activities. It allows for highly customizable views to display relevant Fleet operation information. A Fleet Management Console View consists of a specific type and is associated with filters. The filters on a view contain customizable search criteria to easily find the Drivers, Fleet Assets, Loads, Maps, and Calendars to complete Fleet Management tasks.

Users with the Fleet Management - Read Only setting are not able to interact with the buttons in the top banner.

Create, Clone, Edit, and Delete views to display Fleet information as required.

Select the View Manager button to list, create, view, and manage views.

Manage views with the following icons.

  • Check the box(es) to select a view or views.

    • Checked views display in the Fleet Management Console.

    • Checking or Unchecking views automatically updates and refreshes the Fleet Management Console.

Driver and Fleet Asset detail pages also contain specific entries on the Calendar tab. Fleet Calendar Entries may be added from the record detail page on the related list.

The Fleet Load Status must be Configured on the Trip Planner for Trip Plan calendar entries to populate on Drivers or Fleet Asset records.

Driver Assignment

Driver Assignments refer to long-term pairing or “seating” of a Driver to a Fleet Asset (a Tractor or Power Unit), typically in the case of an owner-operator. Creating Trip Plans and adding a Driver or Fleet Asset that is a component of a Driver Assignment adds both records to the Trip Plan.

Select a Fleet Asset (Tractor) and click the Driver Assignment button to open the Fleet Driver Assignment Lightning Web Component. This LWC displays existing Driver Assignment records and allows users to create, modify, or delete existing Driver Assignments. If multiple Fleet Assets are Checked when clicking the Driver Assignment button, the Driver(s) are only assigned to the first Fleet Asset.

Driver records must be created first before creating Driver Assignments. See additional information for creating Drivers here.

One or Two Drivers may be assigned to a single Fleet Asset (Tractor).

Driver records with a populated Co-Driver field are considered a Team. Assigning the Driver to a Fleet Asset assigns both Drivers. The Driver Type column displays Team instead of Solo.

Driver Assignments continue indefinitely if no End Date is provided.

Drivers may be removed from a Driver Assignment with the Unassign button or the Delete button.

If a Driver is assigned to another Fleet Asset, the TMS automatically unassigns the Driver from the existing Assignment. The Driver is then assigned to the Fleet Asset of the new Driver Assignment.

When Unassigning a Driver Team, both drivers must be Unassigned from the Fleet Asset.

Historical Driver Assignments are listed for the Fleet Asset.

Driver Assignment records are available on the Driver and Fleet Asset records. Always edit and delete Driver Assignments from the Fleet Driver Assignment LWC and not any of the related lists on the records.
