Truck, Bus, and Trailer Data in the Vehicle Record

Published:
Updated:

Module: Stammdaten (Master data) → Fahrzeuge (Vehicles) → "LKW"/"Bus" and "Anhänger" tab (Truck/Bus and Trailer)

Audience: Commercial-vehicle fleet managers, workshop coordination

Required permission(s): vehicles.view (edit: vehicles.edit)

Overview

For commercial vehicles, the vehicle record shows additional tabs — depending on the vehicle's Bauart (Vehicle class, Article 33):

  • Tab "LKW" (Truck) or "Bus" (?section=lkwbus): for trucks, tractor units, buses, and motorhomes. For buses, the tab is automatically labeled "Bus".
  • Tab "Anhänger" (Trailer) (?section=anhaenger): for trailers and semi-trailers.

If the tab is missing, first check the vehicle class in the data sheet (Article 34). For newly created, not-yet-saved vehicles, a note appears asking you to save the vehicle first.

Frequently asked questions

The "LKW" (Truck) tab is missing for my van. The tabs only appear for the vehicle classes truck, tractor unit, bus, and motorhome (or trailer/semi-trailer). Check which vehicle class is assigned to the vehicle — after changing the vehicle class and saving, the tab appears.

Where do I maintain HU and UVV for the truck? As for all vehicles, in the Wartung (Maintenance) area (Article 39) — that is also where the basis for the email reminders lies (Article 04).
