Creating Vehicle Groups

  • Updated

This article provides a guide on how to effectively manage vehicle groups in BigChange. Understanding how to organise your vehicles into groups can significantly enhance your ability to filter lists, generate reports, and assign jobs more efficiently.


Understanding the Importance of Vehicle Groups

Vehicle groups are a crucial feature in BigChange, allowing you to organise your fleet based on your business needs. The complexity of these groups can vary, ranging from simple divisions such as 'van fleet' and 'HGV fleet', to more detailed classifications like 'tractor unit' and 'tipper'.

The use of groups enables you to:

  • Filter lists and reports more effectively
  • Assign jobs more efficiently
  • Add custom fields specific to each group

How to Create and Editing Vehicle Groups

To create a Vehicle Group, follow these steps:

  • Select Account Settings from the top menu, followed by Settings
  • Select Vehicles from the side menu
  • Select Groups

Here you can:

  • Add: Create a new group by entering a name
  • Search: Find specific vehicle groups
  • Edit: Modify an existing group name
  • Delete: Remove a group. Note that a group cannot be deleted if any vehicles are assigned to it. You must first move the vehicles to another group.
