The Service Logs page displays the service information for vehicles in your fleet. With Service Logs you can record regular checks for vehicle road-worthiness, such as daily inspections and safety checks, and the completion of regular required checks, such as MOT and Tacho calibration. You can also keep records of defects and proof of defect resolution by including attachments to service log entries, enabling you to streamline service management by storing important information in one centralized location.
