Moving vehicles between cost centres in ECM

Most organisations using ECM will generally have fleet vehicles assigned to one specific site (or cost centre) and will rarely have the need to move vehicles multiple times. However, one of our larger clients is a construction company operating over 200 active sites and given the nature of construction, people can be moving between sites and re-assigned to different cost centres on a regular basis.

Find the vehicle that has moved to a different cost centre:

Vehicle-edit

Now simply edit the registration number of the vehicle to something else. For ease of view, it might be useful to add the date of change (highlighted in red); "CB7VEP to 03/08/2011". However, it can be edited to anything else; for example "CB7VEP Moved".

Once the vehicle is edited, the original vehicle will re-appear when you next import your fuel card data. That vehicle will appear again as un-assigned, allowing you to re-assign it to one of your cost centres:

Vehicle-import
