    • Registration / number plate
    • Friendly name (e.g. “Truck 2” or “Big Yellow”)
    • Type: roll-on / tipper / dropside
    • Capacity (how many skips it can carry — usually 1)
  3. Save.

Fleet page with vehicle list

  • Shows up in the dispatch board lane when you assign a driver who is in that vehicle today.
  • Tracks total kilometres / trips for reporting.
  • Lets you set per-vehicle costs if you want a cost-per-trip figure (Pro).

Open the vehicle and tick Out of service. Any jobs assigned to that vehicle’s driver stay assigned to the driver, but the vehicle no longer appears as a load option.

  • Drivers — adding the people who drive the trucks
  • Dispatch — the board where vehicles + drivers + jobs meet
