Logs

 

 

 

 

1.  Introduction

 

Before use, please review the module Set Up details.

 

Logs are a record of utilisation based on odometer or hour meter readings.  They are essential for FBT reporting.

 

Important note:

For items flagged as FBT applicable, a single log cannot cross two FBT years.

I.e. A log cannot have a start date prior to 1st April and an end date on or after 1st April.

This ensures accurate data is available for FBT calculations.

The Logs module has options to view by fleet item or by driver. The Driver view sorts the table first by Driver name then by FBT year

 

Expanding the records shows a comprehensive history.

 

Odometer/hour meter readings can be collected automatically for items fitted with telematics. Speak to your Account Manager or AusFleet Support for more information.


 

2.  GPS Odometer Import Notification

 

Odometers can be imported from GPS systems to maintain accurate and frequent logs.

Contact Help Desk or your Account Manager for information on this option.

 

If an import fails, a notification appears with a link to open the import log file.

This is only be visible to licensed users via user right 70.05 Logs - View GPS Interface Logs.
