Fleet Management Tips: Using Reports within RASTRAC

Written by Rastrac Team | May 27, 2015 9:00:00 PM

Reports allow you to know exactly what your drivers and vehicles have been up to, making your fleet management much easier. For example, if you are worried that your drivers have been speeding, you can run the Speed Report to see who has been speeding and when/where did it occur. Similarly, you may be concerned about driver behavior in general. In this case, the Driver Performance Report is what you're looking for.

The reports page in RASTRAC, seen below, functions as the user interface for running/scheduling reports.


To run/schedule a report, first select whether you would like to run the report for drivers or for vehicles. Then, select the vehicle(s) or driver(s) that you want to run/schedule the report for. Then, choose the type of report you wish to run/schedule with the Report Type drop box menu at the top of the page. Also, select how you would like the report to be formatted (as an HTML, Microsoft Excel, tab-delimited, or PDF document) with the File Format drop box menu. If you would like to run a one-time report, choose the Run Report Now option. Alternatively, if you would like to schedule a report to be sent to be sent via email at a specified time, periodically, select Schedule a Report. Once you have entered the desired parameters, click Run Report Now or Schedule Report at the bottom of the page.

Here are a few of the most used reports:

Engine Hours Report: The Engine Hours report shows information on engine run-times for each driver/vehicle.

Idle Time Report: The Idle Time report allows you to see all idle time instances for each driver/vehicle.

Summary Report: The Summary report provides you a high-level picture of each driver/vehicle's activity.

Stop Report: The Stop report provides details of each stop made by each of your drivers/vehicles.

After Hours Report: The After Hours report allows you to monitor driver/vehicle activity that occurs outside the normal work day.

 

Geofence Report: The Geofence report shows information relating to driver/vehicles' time spent within geofences.

 

Location Report: The Location report shows detailed info about driver/vehicles' visits to locations, similarly to the geofence report.
