Hey there, and welcome back to Fleet Management in RentWorks Plus! Cars don't sit still. They get rented, refueled, moved around, and parked in the wrong row. So let's keep every car's live state accurate, and let the system flag anything out of place.

Open Counter, then Fleet Management. Every unit gets its own card: status, location, fuel, and odometer, with buttons for what you can do next.

Click Status Modify. Pick the new status, set the location, slide the fuel to the right eighth, and enter the odometer. Click Update 1 Vehicle, and the card's up to date.

Prefer a list? One click switches Fleet Management to list view. Got a whole row to change? Open Vehicle Fleet from the sidebar, tick the cars you want, click Status Modify, and update them all at once.

And the statuses are yours to define. Add your own in Statuses Management, like Detailing, and it gets a tile of its own on Vehicle Fleet.

Every change is kept. The Status History tab on the vehicle record shows when the status changed, who changed it, why, and where.

Moving a car with no renter? A shuttle run, a transfer, or an employee trip? Click Open Non-Revenue on its card. Pick the driver and the return location, check the odometer and fuel going out, and open the ticket. When it's back, Close NR on the same card checks it in.

Now, the physical count. Open Vehicle Inventory and pick your location. Search or scan each unit on the lot, and it's recorded to the session. Found one that belongs somewhere else? RentWorks asks, and Transport & Select moves it here. Submit the inventory, and the Discrepancy Report lists what's missing, what's extra, and any odometer that's off. The system matches the lot.
