NOTE: Fields 4 and 9

When the user is restricted to a single location or location group in their User Access record, these 2 fields must work together.
When the code entered in Field 4 is for a location or group that is allowed, anything can be entered in Field 9. That is, a user can include on the report all vehicles that are at his location regardless of who owns them.

If the code entered in Field 4 includes a location outside of the restricted one(s), then Field 9 will accept a response of only "1". That is, a user can include on the report all of his vehicles regardless of where they are.

TIPS ON USING VEHICLE STATUS REPORT

The following suggestions will increase the value of this report.

  1. For those operations using the Planning Calendar and Non-Rev Movement:
    1. When taking a vehicle to an off site garage for repair, open a Non-Rev Ticket which will do the following;
      1. Change the Current Status to a code that represents non-rev status.
      2. This will change the current odometer date.
      3. In the Notes field of the Non-Rev Ticket, enter the name of the garage or any other explanatory notes such as the problem with the vehicle. Although that note will not display on the Vehicle Status Report, it will display on the Non-Rev Report.
    2. The Vehicle Status Report will report how long that vehicle has been on a Non-Rev Ticket and tracing vehicles is a relatively easy task.
    3. When shuttling a vehicle to a new location, open a Non-Rev ticket documenting the movement. When the receiving location closes the Non-Rev, it will reset the current odometer date so that the elapsed time will begin at zero for the new location.
    4. When assigning a vehicle to an employee for personal use, enter a Non-Rev Ticket which will change the vehicle's status to non-rev.
  2. For those operations NOT using the Planning Calendar:
    1. 1. When taking a vehicle to an off site garage for repair, enter a history record into the Vehicle History File which will do the following;
      1. Change the Current Status to a code that represents off-site repairs.
      2. Answer "Y" to update the odometer even if the odometer did not change, this will change the current odometer date.
      3. In the Notes field, enter the name of the garage and any other explanatory notes such as the problem with the vehicle.
    2. The Vehicle Status Report will then report how long that vehicle has been in the shop and tracing vehicles will be easy.
    3. When shuttling a vehicle to a new location, enter a history record or non-rev movement documenting the movement. This will reset the current odometer date so that the elapsed time will begin at zero for the new location.
    4. When assigning a vehicle to an employee for personal use, enter a history record changing the status to a code that represents "employee use" and enter the employee's name in the Notes field.
  3. For ALL operations:
    1. For a list of all your vehicles that are currently at foreign lo­cations, use the default values for all fields except Fields 13 and 10. In Field 13 enter "T" and sort the report using the "LOCATION" option.
    2. This report can be run for cars only, trucks only, rental fleet only, or leasing fleet only by making use of the Fleet Type Code feature. Then use Field # 14 to restrict the report to that Fleet Type Code only.
