You should be all set to use vehicle tracking 👍

For now, this is what it looked like on the Legacy system and should come to the App soon, functioning in a similar way.

On a Field Ticket click this icon

to launch the Vehicle Tracking Log.

Compare the time from the CenPoint Mobile App Vs. GPS Tracking Service (ie: Samsara, Motive, Teletrack) and choose what time to use.

On the scheduler click Misc → Vehicle Location Mapping to see current location of vehicles on the map.

This allows your dispatcher to launch the GPS tracking (without having to log into the GPS tracking) from CenPoint.

The dispatcher now can use CenPoint and not have to run 2 different programs.
