Create a New Vehicle Record

 
Perspective provides two ways to create a new Vehicle record: with the help of the standard Add function, and by importing a Vehicle record from the Gateway.
 
To create a Vehicle record using the standard Add function, do the following steps:
 
1.     Click the Add button on the Viewing pane toolbar.
 
2.     Enter the License Plate number. To avoid duplicate entries and to facilitate accurate searches, it is best to use a consistent format for entering license plate numbers (e.g., no spaces or special characters).
 
3.     If known, indicate where the vehicle’s license plate was registered in the Country and State/Province fields.
 
4.     If known, enter the vehicle’s VIN, Vehicle Value, and Year.
 
5.     Specify the vehicle’s Make, Model, Style, and Color.
 
6.     If the vehicle is a company vehicle, specify the Division and Branch it belongs to.
 
7.     Add any additional information in the Comments text box.
 
8.     To add a photo of the vehicle to the record, click the Add icon in the image box. Locate the image file in the browser window and click Open.
 
 
To add a vehicle imported through the Gateway, perform the steps described in the Items section, the Import Record’s Settings From the Gateway chapter.
