Assigned Vehicle & Job Tools

When a vehicle is assigned, the following details are recorded and kept current in the personnel file: vehicle year / make / model, VIN, license plate, fuel card number, registration expiration date, insurance expiration date, company phone / GPS device, and keys issued.

This list drives the onboarding checklist in the portal — each item is tracked live, ticks itself when the matching document is signed or uploaded, and is verified by a manager before the first assignment. The record is updated whenever the vehicle assignment or credentials change.
