Electronic Logging Devices (ELDS) are pieces of electronic hardware attached to a commercial motor vehicle engine to record driving hours. They make it easier and faster to accurately track, manage, and share data on driving and off-duty time.
Set up an integration to pull data from your ELD into Transport + Deliver and to run actions on that data.
Setup
To integrate with an ELD:
- Set up an account with the ELD service.
- Create an External Device Service in D365.
- Schedule the Pull External Device job to run as often as needed.
- Schedule the Execute External Device job to run as often as needed.
Available Integrations
We currently support integrations with Geotab and Omnitracs.
Flow
Your scheduled process will run as often as specified:
- Log into the external service.
- Pull the most recent update file.
- Push data into the Inbound Process Queue (action items) or the Inbound GPS Queue (GPS point trying to keep track of where asset is during an activity).
- Process the activity according to Action Mapping specifications set for the service.
