This option can be used to query all vehicles that are linked to this system.  The asset number, costing indicator, vehicle registration number and description are displayed. New assets cannot be defined with this option.  Other controls for vehicle maintenance service are maintained here. 


Fields in the option:

Block 1:  Rates and Cost Centres

This option is also used to update the following fields in respect of each vehicle:


Field Type
&
Length
Description
Service Kilometres N9  Enter the kilometres that must be travelled by this vehicle before the next service.  These kilometres will be added to “Last Service kilometres” to determine the kilometre reading at which the vehicle must be serviced.  The total will be displayed in menu options 1 and 2 as “Next Service Kilometres”.
Kilometres last Serviced N9 When the vehicle is serviced, the user should update this field with the odometer readings for the service.  The effect of this is to start the cycle for service warning and blocking of vehicle booking.
Cost Centre  A4 The credits in respect of trips will be allocated to the account as specified under option {FVTM-1} with the Cost Centre as specified here.

*     If the expenditure and income in respect of each vehicle is to be retained separately, a Cost Centre for each vehicle      should be created.

*     It is also possible to lump together the costs and expenditure of several vehicles by linking them to a single Cost       Centre under this option.
Charge out Rates Per vehicle charge out rates that are available are per kilometre, per hour and per day.  The user specifies the rates for a vehicle.  When a booking is made for a vehicle, the booking program will check the valid charges for the vehicle and display these.  After entering the details of the booking, a commitment will be calculated and raised based on these values.

If the answer is (Y)es for kilometre rate charges, and the rest is No, the system will charge per kilometre.

The fields Charge km Rate, km Rate and Charge Hourly Rate can be set to Yes or No.  The user will be billed a    Kilometre tariff and / or the Daily Rate and / or the Hourly rate based on the times set in fields Daily Time of Hourly Charge  Out and Bill for Saturday below and the indicator set in fields Charge km Rate, km Rate and Charge Hourly Rate
