Understanding

A logbook is always retroactively created for a specific period of time. Select the vehicle you want and you get to the main menu of the logbook. At the beginning is created, no vehicle a logbook. Therefore, you must follow the vehicle selection to create a new log book first. Click on the button "New logbook for vehicle XY". If you have only one vehicle in your vehicle pool, this is automatically selected. A logbook can be carried out only up to the time of the last mileage synchronization.

Create a new logbook

In the first step you will see the last known milage value from the portal and the last date of odometer synchronization. You can now continue with a new synchronization ("adjust mileage") or continoue without any milage setting ("continue without odometer synchronization"). If you want to continue without synchronization, you only able to go on, if the end date of the created logbook is before the last date of synchronization. If you continue with a synchronization, please enter the current odometer value of the vehicle, to synchronize the vehicle and the portal. Click on "adjust mileage". Please wait a moment, you will see a info, that the connection to vehicle will be evaluated and the synchronization is in progress. Immediately the box acknowleged the milage setting you are able to continue with step 2. This procedure can take a few minutes.

In the second step you have to select the timeframe for the logbook. To create a logbook for the month march for example you have to enter from 1.3.200X to 31.3.200X. The ending date has to be at least one day in the past. Logbooks can only be created up to "yesterday". It's also posible to hide short stops which undecut a selected maximum stop duration. On the other hand you have the opportunity to hide trips with a driven distance of 0 km.

If all information are correct, the logbook will now be created and displayed.

Edit a logbook

Please choice a vehicle in main view, to display all logbook parts of this vehicle. If you never create a logbook before, you have to do this first. Click on "edit logbook" to open an existing logbook.

The portal will check every logbook of errors as soon as you open it. Errors will be displayed by an message and the corrsesponding entries will appear in red colour.

A possible error is for example a difference between the end milage of a tript and the start milage of the next trip. In this case you have to adapt the milage manually. Another error occurs when the portal regocnizes that the average velocity for a trip is below 5 kilmeter per hour. In this case it is in all probability that the vehicle submited insufficient data and the logbook could not create a valid entry.
