GPSTrackIt.com has added the ability to allow vehicles in Fleet Manager, its fleet and mobile workforce management system, to simultaneously belong to multiple groups. The feature enables groups to be “nested,” expanding the reporting and alerting capabilities of Fleet Manager.

“A vehicle belonging to more than a single group now appears in the list for each group selected,” said Eddie Bermudez, GPSTrackIt.com’s product development manager. “Units in two groups will appear twice, once in each group.”

Vehicle membership in multiple groups can be seen in the following changes to Fleet Manager:

• The Vehicle Status page has been augmented with a selection/filter list for groups.
• On the Map page, the information bubble for the unit displays all group tags.
• The Analytics Dashboard can now compare two groups containing the same unit.
• Scheduled Reports can be run using multiple groups.

“This enables the creation of ‘nested’ or vehicle sub-groups,” Bermudez said. “Say there are sales teams at local offices. Each office has a ‘sales team’ vehicle group. But the regional sales manager is responsible for five locations, so the vehicles are also in the ‘regional sales team’ group.”
