What does a truck standing still cost, and when is it due for service?
The downtime hours over ninety days, the work order with or without immobilisation, the amount taken from the garage’s bill, the service schedule, the tyres and the “Fleet” tab.
What you get
- A downtime figure almost nobody else has.
- Repair costs come from the garage’s bills, never typed twice.
- Service due dates from the real odometer and closed orders, not from memory.

A truck standing idle costs you twice: the repair itself, and the trip it didn't make. Almost nobody counts that second half. Here it is: sixty-two hours of downtime in ninety days. Vehicle status changes are recorded even without the module, so when you turn it on, past months are already measurable.
A work order opens with or without immobilization. With it, the vehicle goes to the workshop, and its status in the fleet list changes at once. Two open orders on the same vehicle? Close one, and it stays in the workshop while the last one is open.
Work and parts go into the order without prices: the amount comes from the garage's bill attached to the order. A price typed in by hand at the workshop would be a second truth.
A service schedule is set in kilometres and months — say, thirty thousand kilometres or six months. The next service counts from the last closed order and the real odometer. No starting point? The system shows a dash and says what's missing. A wrong due date is worse than none: people trust it and don't go and check.
Tires, with their position, accumulated mileage and removal reason. And the Fleet tab shows, for each vehicle, downtime hours, orders and bills. That answers the question: should we keep this tractor?
Downtime is counted in hours, and service due dates start from the real odometer and closed orders.
