Vehicle

Option required

Vehicles are only available if the VEHICLE option is enabled on the project.

Definition

A Vehicle is a means of transport that can be associated with a movement. Its primary purpose is to record which vehicle was used and who was driving it, so that the driver can be identified in the event of a traffic incident.

Main attributes

Attribute	Description
License plate	The vehicle’s registration number
Brand	The vehicle manufacturer
Model	The vehicle model
Availability dates	Date and time range defining when the vehicle is available

Status

A vehicle does not have an explicit status field. Its availability state is derived from:

Situation	Implied availability state
Has been soft deleted	DISABLED
Arrival date is in the future	NOT_AVAILABLE_YET
End date is in the past	NO_MORE_AVAILABLE
No dates set OR today is between start and end dates	AVAILABLE

For the runtime presence status (derived from movement history: IN, OUT), see Movement — Vehicle presence status. The two statuses are independent: the table above is computed from the vehicle's availability dates, while the presence status is computed from its movement history.

Availability dates

A vehicle can have its own availability dates (start and end). These are optional. If not set, the vehicle is full-time available.
