How to update vehicle odometer

🚗 Initial Setup


When GPS devices are first installed in vehicles, you must manually enter the initial odometer reading. This ensures the system calculates mileage accurately from that point onward.


Note: Over time, slight variances may occur between the GPS-calculated odometer and the actual vehicle odometer due to various factors (e.g., signal accuracy, tire size). To maintain accuracy, it's important to periodically update the odometer reading.



🔄 How to Update the Odometer Value


  1. Go to the Fleet page


  • Navigate to the Fleet module in the menu.


  1. Select the vehicle


  • Click on the RegNo of the vehicle you wish to update.


  1. Open the Specification tab


  • Select the Specification tab in the vehicle's profile.


  1. Select History


  • Delete all previous History if you are correcting an inaccurate odometer value.


  • Click the pencil icon ✏️ next to the current mileage.



  • Enter the vehicle's current odometer reading and click Save.


✅ Your odometer value is now updated and will be used as the new base for ongoing mileage tracking. Monitor subsequent readings after saving.


Important: Do not enter the odometer reading manually in the Fleet tab when a current reading is requested for a correction. Provide the vehicle's current reading so it can be updated against the odometer settings.
