1. Introduction
Tolls consists of two main elements:
•Tag allocation to vehicles.
•Importing/adding toll transactions.
•Tags cannot be allocated to two vehicles at the same time - unallocate one before reallocating.
•Toll records in Fleet>>Ownership & Allocation, the Tolls module and the Toll icon are all connected and updating in one area updates all others.
•Toll expenses accrue to the vehicle's debtor when posted.
1.1 To See Unallocated Tags

1.2 To Choose Which Columns to Display in the Main Toll Window
Go To Transactions>>Settings>>ETags and tick the columns to view.
Up to 8 columns are recommended for best display and performance.
If the import process fails it is usually because the supplier has changed the file format. Contact Ausfleet Help Desk on 02 9986 2800.
