Locating linked assets

Locating linked assets! Let's get started. The Linked Assets feature provides a single location to view assets (such as vehicles and trailers) that are paired together on trips. Please note that Linked Assets only appears on databases with asset tracking devices deployed. It will not appear on databases with only vehicle-based assets (go or OEM connections) since there are no assets to link. Navigate to the Linked Assets page in MyGeotab by either clicking Productivity, then Linked Assets, or searching for Linked Assets in the menu. The Linked Assets page lists all assets that took a trip together during the specified time period. In this example, Demo Trailer 3 is linked to Dispatch 5, and Demo Trailer 1 was linked to Dispatch 2. You can Search, filter, and set the date period for the list of linked assets using the toolbar. The Link type tells you how the assets were connected. Manual links are created by drivers using the Drive App to connect trailers and vehicles. Automatic links are created by MyGeotab for assets with tracking devices. Vehicles must use either a telematics device or OEM connection, and the trailer or non-vehicle asset can use any asset tracking device with a minimum reporting frequency of 15 minutes. Each asset pair provides a quick Trip link to view their connected trips. Navigate to the Assets page for another way to view linked assets. Search for the asset. Click the pill dropdown in the Linked assets column. Here, you can view the list of linked assets. Click the name of the asset. Scroll down the Asset tab to view the list of linked assets. Congratulations! You've completed this tutorial for how to locate linked assets.
