Quick Update Vehicle Status

Quick Update Vehicle Status

Purpose

The Quick Vehicle Update Status option allows for the update of important vehicle information immediately prior to a hire. This information includes the cleaned status, current fuel level, current mileage and where the vehicle is located. Typically, the detailer or person cleaning the vehicle and preparing it for hire would make use of this option. The counter operator who hires out the vehicle then knows that the mileage and fuel levels are correct and that the vehicle is clean and ready to be hired.
