Trip Investigator Reports

Tripicon2   In Depot, go to Reports / Fleet / Trip Investigator.

Use Trip Investigator to see all or specific vehicle trips completed the previous day or throughout the last week.  You can compare the routes to your schedule and times to see if trips are meeting your expectations. The Map view clearly shows if detours are causing delays and a route can be improved. You can also see any vehicles that were driven outside of normal working hours, during personal time, or driven outside of your normal driving region.

You can send reports of customer-specific trips as proof that you met your travel time Service Level Agreements (SLAs). In the event of insurance or accident issues, you can prove exactly where and what time your vehicle was in an area.

Example Scenarios

A unique feature is of Trip Investigator is you can schedule to have a daily or weekly report sent directly to your email inbox on a regular basis. This is a timesaver because you do not need to reopen the report and reset your options.

Understanding the Report

Map view visualises your fleet vehicle trips within the last week on a map. You can see at a glance where your fleet traveled. Each line represents a trip. The bolder the line appears on the map, the more trips are covered on the same route.

Data view lists all trips represented on map view but adds specific event details from each trip with filters for easy sorting and interpreting scenarios. You can review every stop on a trip including the vehicle plate number, driver, arrival and departure times, distance traveled between stops, and the time at each location.
