How to create an application

Need a way to manage multiple fleets in GpsGate? Creating an application for each is your first step! Separating applications gives you the power to organize all assets and business rules fleet by fleet.

Best practice: 1 application is 1 fleet. In other words, each customer should be organized in its own application. That way, each customer has its own configuration with different user access, reports, and assets. You typically don't want to mix assets from different companies in the same application. 

Creating an application

To quickly create a new application, follow these steps:

1. Go to Main Menu > Site Admin > Applications > Manage Applications

2. Click + Application.

3. Select the template you'd like to use, name the application, and click Save.
