Resources Creation

Units, drivers, and geofences are initially created in the AVL system. Users then transition to the Route application to define routes, assign job orders, monitor real-time performance, and optimize operations effectively.

• Log in to the AVL system and navigate to the Units Section.
• If the resources have already been created, you may skip this step and proceed directly to Transition to Route
