Event Registration
  • events

To work with the Event registration option, you should have the following access rights to the units:

  • Manage events. To register events and add records to the unit log;

  • Manage object log. To add records to the unit log.

The Event registration option on the Monitoring tab allows you to make records in the unit log and register events for the unit in order to see them later on the Messages tab and in reports. This option allows you to register the following types of events: 

To make a record in the unit log or register an event for the unit, follow the steps below.

  1. Click on the icon  opposite the required unit in the work list of the Monitoring tab. If there is no such icon, enable the Event registration option in the customizer of monitoring options.
  2. Select the type: a record in the unit log or one of the available events.
  3. Fill in the rest of the fields. They depend on the selected type (see below).
  4. Click Save and continue to register a record or an event and proceed to adding the following one, or click OK to save the changes and close the window.

The units of measurement used in the event registration window depend on the system of measurement used for the unit.

You can't edit the registered events and records. You can only delete them from the unit history on the Messages tab. This requires the Delete messages access right to the unit.

There are other types of events and methods of their registration in Wialon. See more about them here

The option which allows you to register the event as a violation.

Location

The place where the event occurred. You can specify it in two ways:

  • manually: start entering the address and select a suitable option from those suggested in the list;
  • using the map: click on the icon , double-click on the required place on the map, and click ОК. 

The address is determined by the maps selected as the geodata source in the user settings.

You can see the registered events in the Events and Chronology report tables. The events registered as violations are also displayed in the Violations report table.

Unit status

Select this type to register any unit status, for example, personal or business use of the vehicle. 

To register a status, specify the following parameters:

Parameter

Description

Description

The name and/or description of the status. You can save the entered description to be able to use it later when registering statuses for this or other units. To save the description, click  to the right of its field. 

To use the saved description, select it in the list. To delete the saved description, select it and click on the icon .

Date

The date and time of the event. You can specify it using the calendar. The current date and time are shown by default.

The statuses can be registered automatically by means of notifications with the Register event status notification action (for example, when entering a geofence).

You can see the registered statuses in the Events and Chronology report tables. Also, the Status column is available in the Trips, Unfinished trips, Trips between geofencesEngine hours, and Parkings report tables.

Fuel filling

Select this type to register a fuel filling for the unit, including data on its volume and cost. If a fuel level sensor is configured for the unit, you can compare the specified volume data with the sensor readings in the Fuel fillings report.

To register a fuel filling, specify the following parameters:

Parameter

Description

Description

The information about the fuel filling. By default, this field shows a text to which the filling volume and cost values are automatically added when you specify the parameters below. You can edit the description if necessary.

Total filled

The volume of the filled fuel. Fractional values (to the nearest hundredth) are allowed. Use a dot as a separator.

Cost

The cost of the filling. Fractional values (to the nearest hundredth) are allowed. Use a dot as a separator. For example, to register a cost of 77 dollars 88 cents, enter 77.88.

Date

The date and time of the filling. You can specify it using the calendar. The current date and time are shown by default.

Deviation

The possible deviation from the specified filling time in minutes. This value is used for the Fuel fillings report to compare the fillings registered manually and those detected automatically.

If the same filling has been automatically detected by a fuel sensor and registered manually, the Fuel fillings table shows the volume data in one row in the Filled and Registered columns respectively. Also, the table shows the difference between the values of these columns.

In order for the volume data to be shown in one row, the time of the filling detected automatically must be the same as the time specified when registering the filling manually. 

If a value is specified in the Deviation field, the time of the filling registered manually may be different from the time of the one detected automatically. It may be earlier or later, but the difference must not exceed the value specified in this field.

Example. A fuel filling has been detected automatically. Its time (the time of the maximum fuel level difference) is 12:57:49. When registering the filling manually, the user specifies 12:55:00 in the Date field and 30 minutes in the Deviation field. Since the difference is about 3 minutes and doesn’t exceed the value in the Deviation field, this filling is considered one and the same. The filling volume determined automatically is shown in the Filled column, and the volume specified manually is shown in the Registered column in the same table row.

Location

The place where the vehicle was refuelled. You can specify it in the same way as for a custom event.

The registered fuel fillings are displayed in the following report tables: Events, Fuel fillings, Utilization cost, Chronology.
