You can view an inventory or compare two inventories from a specific parking
facility, using the Inventory report task.
What you should know
In the
Inventory report,
you can view and compare vehicle inventories from different time periods to
determine the following:
- Current and previous inventories of parked cars
- Vehicles that have been added (entered) or removed (exited)
- Vehicle location (sector and row)
- Vehicles that have been manually removed (towed)
- Vehicle stay duration
- Vehicles whose data was edited and manually reconciled into the
inventory.
To prevent performance issues, plate images are not displayed for reports that
include more than a thousand rows.
BEST PRACTICE: For best results, compare
the more recent inventory with the previous inventory. For example, if the
parking facility is swept on a daily basis, you should compare the inventory
from today and yesterday.
To view or compare parking facility inventories:
-
From the home page, open the Inventory report task.
-
From the Parking facility drop-down
list in the Source section, select
the name of the parking facility.
-
In the Inventory section, select
the inventory you want to view or compare.
Latest non-partial:
The latest inventory.
Specific:
A specific inventory.
-
To compare the inventory with another inventory in the parking facility, select
a second inventory from Other inventory drop-down
list.
-
From the Added drop-down list, select the vehicle state you want to
compare.
You can query vehicles that were Unchanged, Added,
Removed, or Moved. You can select multiple actions at the same
time.
-
Set up other query filters to refine your search. Choose from one or more of
the following filters:
Advanced
search:
By default, LPR images are not displayed
in the Inventory report. To view images, click Get
images. To prevent performance issues, plate images are
not displayed if a report includes more than a thousand rows.

field for the entity. This filter only appears if custom fields are
defined for the entity, and if the custom field was made visible to you
when it was created or last configured.

Partial license plate number.
