You can get access to the "Settings" menu via the Settings button.

Or, via the menu bar Modules - Settings.

The "Settings" menu contains 5 main items:

Profiles - Management - Tracking - Collaboration - Tools

When clicked, each menu item will display various options.

An overview of the menu items:

Profiles

• Collaboration profiles
  Transport companies can determine which info they want to show by ticking the check boxes in the available list (preview see fig. below).

• Rights profiles
  Transport companies can also assign a profile to a user of their own fleet. It is possible to create this profile in the module Settings > Profiles > Rights profiles. Afterwards, the created profile can be assigned to a user in Settings > Management > Users.

• OBC profiles
  Click here for more information on OBC profiles for your vehicles.

• User profiles
  Click here for more information on user profiles.

c) Trailers - more info

d) Drivers - more info

j) Formatting

Here you can choose the way in which Vehicles, Drivers, Dispatchers, Trailers and Leased vehicles are displayed in the windows "Vehicle follow-up" and "Driver follow-up". (This is the company-wide definition of "naming" a vehicle / driver / dispatcher / trailer.)

Remark: This does not imply that a company can hide certain information for its dispatchers.

If the user opts for "Technical number", for instance, only the technical number of the vehicle will be displayed in the "Vehicle" column.

k) Activities / Registrations

Companies can define their own colour codes and icons for the different activities and registrations.

Click the colour bar of an activity to edit the corresponding colour.

l) GeoFencing

GeoFencing basically means that the Transics system alerts you when a certain vehicle

enters / leaves a certain area around a geographical position, for instance a POI, a customer's or a supplier's site.

You can create this GeoFencing object yourself starting from the map or in the module Settings > Management > GeoFencing.

There are three types of GeoFencing:

• Standard: The driver and / or the home base get a warning when the vehicle enters / leaves an area.

• Scheduled Time of Arrival (STA): The driver and / or the home base get a warning when the vehicle has not arrived in this area by a certain time.

• Restrictive: The driver and / or the home base get a warning when a specific activity in a certain area takes too long.

l) Predefined texts - more info

Tracking

a) Who tracks what

Companies can assign vehicles, trailers, company POIs and drivers to users.

b) Outdated info

In this window, a company can indicate after which period of time information is no longer up-to-date.

This is possible for the following data:

• Latest FTP

• Latest position

• Latest status

• Latest GPRS

When the information is outdated, the data of the ticked check boxes will be displayed in red in the "Vehicle follow-up" window and the out-of-date status indicator will be shown in the leftmost column (see fig. below).

Collaboration

Via the TX-CONNECT platform, you can easily and in a controlled way share the possibilities of a fleet management system between different companies.
