Managing your vehicle fleet efficiently is crucial to keeping your operations organized and ensuring that only actively used vehicles are part of your Fleet. Inactive or non-operational vehicles should be moved to Inventory using Fleetlane’s built-in tools.
What’s the Difference Between Fleet and Inventory?
Fleet includes vehicles currently in service and available for assignments like loaner use.
Inventory is where you keep vehicles not ready or needed for daily operations, such as:
Units under long-term repair
Seasonal or backup vehicles
Retired or decommissioned stock
Vehicles not yet activated
Keeping your Fleet clean ensures better visibility, faster workflows, and more accurate reporting.
How to Move Vehicles Between Fleet and Inventory
To keep things organized, only keep active vehicles in your Fleet. Move any others to Inventory by following these steps:
Go to the Vehicles tab.
Select one or more vehicles via the checkboxes.
Click the Actions dropdown at the top right.
Choose Remove from fleet.
This will instantly move those vehicles into Inventory, removing them from availability in your daily workflows.
You can re-add a vehicle to your Fleet at any time using the Add to fleet option in the same menu.
Why It Matters
✅ Cleaner vehicle lists — only show what’s available
⚡ Faster checkouts — avoid selecting unavailable units
📊 Accurate reporting — reflect true Fleet utilization
🔒 Fewer errors — prevent issues caused by inactive vehicles
Summary
Maintaining a clean, up-to-date Fleet is a simple but powerful way to streamline your operations in Fleetlane. If a vehicle isn’t currently in use, move it to Inventory — and bring it back when needed. It’s that easy.
