This is a complete VTS application suite from where the admin manages its partners by giving
them access to a set of standard features which form the part of the basic VTS application and
have the ability to give access to add-on feature to the partners which the partners, in turn can
sell to their customer for a set license fee.
Currently the system has the basic VTS features and 2 add on modules workshop management
and fuel management integrated. There is already talks to develop a RFID based school bus
management system where parents will be a part of the system as an Apps user and school as a
part of the customer user roles.

access to the add-on modules for the partners, work on behalf of the partners and do all
its activities, and manage the customer under the partner from the partner login. If the
admin has any direct customers, it can create a partner by its own name and add
customers to it. The admin cannot have any customer directly under itself and needs to
have a partner under it to manage the customers.

application in the market. They add customers into the application, manage the

calibrates the vehicle and in cases where the customer wants, manages the whole fleet
of users for the customers in return of a management fee. They have sub users who are

vehicles. The customers have the ability to login into any customer interface and do all
activities of the customer without the user sharing any access details.
