Managing Groups

Groups help you organize devices into logical categories. For example, you might create groups for different vehicle types (buses, vans), locations (North Region, South Region), or purposes (School Routes, Corporate).

When viewing reports or tracking, you can filter by group to focus on specific subsets of your fleet.

Viewing Groups

The Groups table displays:

Name: The group name
Sync Status: Connection status with the tracking server (Pending, Synced, Failed)

Searching for Groups

Use the search field to find groups by name. Type your search term and press Enter.

Understanding Sync Status

Groups sync with the tracking server to ensure consistent data:

Pending: Currently syncing
Synced: Successfully synchronized
Failed: Sync failed - click the Retry button to try again

Adding a Group

Click the Add Group button.
Enter a Name for the group.
Optionally select a Parent Group to create a hierarchical structure.
Click Create Group.

Creating Hierarchical Groups

You can nest groups within other groups. For example:

Vehicles
- Buses
  - School Buses
  - Charter Buses
- Vans

To create a nested group, select an existing group as the Parent Group when creating a new group.

Editing a Group

Find the group in the table.
Click the actions menu (three dots) in that row.
Select Edit.
Update the name or parent group.
Click Update Group.

Deleting a Group

Find the group in the table.
Click the actions menu (three dots) in that row.
Select Delete.
Confirm the deletion.

Note: Deleting a group does not delete the devices in it. Those devices will simply no longer be assigned to a group.

Assigning Devices to Groups

You assign devices to groups when adding or editing a device:

Go to Devices.
Add or edit a device.
In the Details tab, select a group from the Group dropdown.
Save the device.

Permissions

You need the appropriate permissions to add, edit, or delete groups. If these options are not visible, contact your administrator to request access.
