Getting Started

From sign-up to "fleet on the map" in 10 minutes

This guide assumes you've never opened the app before. By the end you'll have an active subscription, one vehicle on the live map, one driver assigned, and your first alert recipient configured.

1. Create your tenant

  1. Go to fleet.midaspathsoftwaresolutions.com/register and fill in the company name, your full name, your email, and a phone number you can receive SMS on.
  2. Confirm your email — Resend delivers the verification link within ~30 seconds. Check spam if it's missing.
  3. Pick a plan. Trials cover up to 5 vehicles for 14 days; you can upgrade later from Settings → Subscription.
Tip — invite your team early. The more people who can act on alerts, the less work falls on you. Invitations live at Team → Invite member.

2. Add your first vehicle

  1. From the sidebar, open Vehicles and tap + Add vehicle.
  2. Fill in the registration / plate number, the make + model, year, and (if you know it) the fuel-tank capacity in litres. The capacity unlocks the "actual fuel litres" display on the dashboard later.
  3. Submit. The vehicle appears in the list immediately.

3. Pair a GPS tracker

Every vehicle needs a tracker to show on the live map. Pairing tells the platform which device's pings belong to which vehicle.

  1. Open Devices from the sidebar and tap + Add device. Enter the device's serial / IMEI, type (GPS Tracker), and pick the vehicle from the dropdown.
  2. Power the device on and let it acquire a GPS fix outside. Within a few minutes the green dot shows up on the live map and a "Last seen" timestamp appears.
Trouble shooting. No green dot after 5 minutes? Check the device's GSM signal bars on Telematics → Devices. If they're low/zero, the SIM may be unactivated or the device is indoors — drive it outside and watch the dashboard.

4. Assign a driver

  1. Open Drivers, tap + Add driver, fill in name, phone, and license expiry. Phone is used for SMS alerts.
  2. Open the driver detail page and tap Assign vehicle. Pick the vehicle you registered earlier.
  3. Confirm. The vehicle's detail page now shows a green "Assigned to {Driver}" pill. The driver appears in trip records automatically.

5. Set up alert recipients

FleetCommando fires alerts when a vehicle speeds, harsh-brakes, drifts out of a geofence, or the device goes offline. Telling it WHO should hear which alert is important — and the goal is "no flooding".

  1. Open Settings → Alert recipients.
  2. Add yourself as a recipient. For the Channels, leave In-App on for everything but split SMS to Critical only (Accident, Device offline) so your phone doesn't buzz on every minor speeding event.
  3. Save and refresh — the badge in the dashboard top-bar starts populating in real-time.
The anti-flood pattern. SMS is for critical events only. Email is for high-signal day-to-day. In-app covers everything (it's free + non-intrusive).

You're operational

From here, head to the Live Map guide to learn how to follow a vehicle, draw geofences, and read the weather safety advisor — or try AI command pilot ("create a vehicle named BLUE MOVE", "what's my fuel cost this week?") if your subscription includes it.
