Home Terminals

You can enter and manage your organization’s Home Terminals in MyEROAD in Settings new cogwheel5 / Administration / My Organization.

Your organization is assigned a default Home Terminal during MyEROAD setup that matches your organization's time zone and a default work day start of midnight. All drivers receive this Home Terminal by default.
