Setting up a Fleet Hierarchy using Groups

Use Groups to organize your drivers, vehicles and account users into a fleet hierarchy to match your company structure.

Use Groups to...

• Restrict access and visibility by user.  Group-level restrictions apply to: 
  • Live Map
  • Dashboard
  • Regional Fleet Entities (Users, Vehicles, Device Claims)
  • Report Library
  • Notifications
• Restrict access for account-level settings.  When groups are used, only top-level administrators will have access to manage account-level Settings including billing/subscriptions, groups, tags and account preferences.
• Enable aggregated group-level analytics in selected reports.

Groups are available to accounts on the Premium Tier.

Key Things to Know

• Groups are hierarchical.  Setup a structure that aligns with your fleet with as many levels as you need (divisions, regions, stores, etc).  
• Users are assigned access to ONE OR MORE groups.  Users can be assigned access to any node in the group tree, and will have access to all groups below.  A user can have access to multiple groups that aren't related, even if not in the same level. 
• Vehicles can be assigned ONE group.  When you add or edit vehicles, you will be prompted to assign them.
• Driver Group Assignment. Drivers should be assigned to multiple group.  

Key Steps to get Groups working for your account

1. Setup Groups
2. Assign Users to Groups *
3. Assign Drivers to Groups *
4. Assign Vehicles to Groups *

* If you don't assign users, they will have account-wide access.  If you don't assign vehicles/drivers, associated trip activity will only be accessible at the account level, which is not recommended.

Setting up Groups (Admins Only)

Tip:  Plan your group structure in advance.  Add groups from the top-level down.  Note you do NOT need to setup an account-level group.

• Open the Zubie portal (app.zubie.com)
• Go to Menu > Groups.
• On the next screen, click Add Group.
• Enter a unique Group Name. Choose the parent group (you can select a group at any level of the hierarchy) and click Save.
• Repeat this process until your company structure is setup.

Once a group is created, you can edit the name, but a group can only be deactivated if no users/vehicles are assigned to the group level or any sub-groups. In other words, to deactivate a group, all users need to be removed or reassigned before the system will allow you to deactivate it.

Assigning Users/Drivers to Groups

1. Make sure you have created appropriate groups before proceeding.
2. Go to the Menu , and select Users .
3. Click on Add User (or the Edit icon ) for a current User.
4. In the Groups field , select one or more Groups.
5. Click Save (at the bottom of the dialog box).

 Assigning Vehicles to Groups

2. Go to the Menu  and select Vehicles 
3. To edit a single vehicle, click the Edit  icon.
4. To assign multiple vehicles to a group in bulk, select the checkbox by the appropriate vehicles. A new control (Bulk Edit ) will appear.
5. From that control, select "Change Group."
6. Select one or more groups from the drop-down menu that appears.
