Odometers, Hours and Logs

 

 

 

1.  Reviewing and Auditing Odometer, Hours and Logs

Fleet>>Details>>Odometers, Hours & Logs

 

Essential for accurate scheduling, disposal forecasts, budget forecasts, utilisation calculations and more.

 

Changes to odometer/hour meter records must be made to the originating transactions in the related modules to ensure data integrity is maintained.

 

Odometer Summary

The most recent readings obtained from each source.

 

"Last odometer entry" is latest reading, not the highest.

This ensures incorrect readings are corrected by the next odometer entry.

 

Readings can be collected via a GPS interface to help maintain accurate odometers.

Contact your Account Manager or Ausfleet Support for more information.

 

"Total Utilisation" = (Latest odo) - (Delivery odo)

 

If the meter has been replaced a message is displayed on this page and the column shows the total utilisation from both the old and new meters.  See "Replacement Odometers" below

Odometer History

Historical odometer readings

"Filled by" indicates AusFleet or Interface

Total Odometer takes into account replaced odometers

When a meter is replaced the Total Utilisation is:

 

Utilisation from the old meter (final reading entered minus delivery odometer)

                                                           +

Utilisation on the new meter (latest reading minus start reading entered)

Replacement Odometers

If a meter is replaced, enter the final reading and start reading and dates here.

 

This ensures validations correctly and utilisation are correct.
