Create a vehicle occupation

A vehicle occupation is created when the driver signs in via ioki Vehicle App and ends if they sign out. A driver is automatically unassigned if there is no active vehicle planning and no current vehicle position.

Additionally to that, vehicle occupations can be manually created by clicking Create new. Here, only the driver and the vehicle have to be chosen in the dropdown menu.

Why does ioki Vehicle App say “The vehicle could not be found” after the driver enters a license plate?

A common cause is that the driver and the vehicle are assigned to different operators. ioki Vehicle App only lets a driver connect to unarchived vehicles in the same product and operator as the driver. If the license plate is correct but the vehicle belongs to a different operator, the app shows the vehicle-not-found error.

To fix this, make sure the driver and vehicle are set up under the same operator and belong to the same product. If the issue continues, check that the vehicle is not archived. Then ask the driver to try again with the same license plate.

End a vehicle occupation

To end an active vehicle occupation, select ⚙️ > End in the dropdown menu.

A vehicle planning must be active to be able to book this vehicle.

Associated validation warnings

If there are vehicles connected to a driver without an active vehicle planning, there is a validation warning on the product page.
