Actions menu

The actions menu is a quick way to see a range of useful functionalities for each of your vehicles or assets. There are three ways to access the menu:

  • Use the three-dot icon 360006511660-5dd2b9703f50b.png found beside each vehicle or powered asset (PA) in the Vehicle Status list.

  • Right-click on the status icon of any vehicle (or driver or asset) on the Live Map.

  • Right-click your mouse anywhere on the Live Map. This option does not give you vehicle specific options such as Vehicle Name, Vehicle Options, Roadside Assistance (if available), Replay, or Reports, but can allow access to certain add-on features, such as Send location to Garmin or Open Driver Dispatch.
