Setting Current Odometer for a New Vehicle

drwevila year ago

Hi
I am wanting to set the current odometer reading for the 4 vehicles I have just set up on a New Tracking account.
I was self hosting and i could just click on the gear icon next to Total Distance but that gear icon is missing in the version hosted be Traccar.

Is there another way to set the Total Distance the vehicle has travelled?

Thanks

It is limited to admins and managers.

So as the account owner i am not admin?
I need to be able to set the odometer, if i cant this is going to be a VERY short trial why would they limit that?

It does say on the pricing page https://www.traccar.org/pricing/
"All features provided by Traccar platform" and being able to set the odometer is a feature that would fit in the "All" category one would think.

It sounds like you purchased an account on shared server. In this case you don't get an admin, but a regular user account, as the description says. You do get all the features applicable to the access level.

Having said that, I think it makes sense to allow regular users to edit distance and hours. We already implemented this change and it will be included in the next release. I think originally it was limited like this because we didn't have some other permission options we have now.

In the meantime you can send an email to support to help you update those values.

Awesome thanks.
I did contact support and they can entering the odometer values for me in the meantime.

Awesome work.

Looking into the future is i want to upgrade to a Tracking Server and make a bit of a business can the data from my shared account be transferred to the new Tracking Server?

It won't be possible to migrate all the data.
