A Message from the Xpert Team
We here at Xpert IT Solutions Inc. are proud to be at the forefront of the trucking and
dispatch industry for the last 15 years. Our team is dedicated to providing you a complete
dispatch solution as well as quality service.
We are excited to announce our latest venture: Xpert ELD. It is a standard Electronic
Logging Device (ELD), but with the additional advantage of being integrated with our
current Xpert Dispatch and Xpert Tracking software. This allows all your existing data to
be transferred to and from the ELD automatically. This automation will not be available to
you if you choose some other ELD system.
Finally, we would also like to thank you, our customers, for choosing Xpert IT Solutions
Inc. We hope you stay on this journey with us as we grow and expand even further.
Together we can Transport with Xpert-ease!

How it Works - Integrating ELD into our Solution Package

2

Each component: Xpert ELD, Xpert Tracking and Xpert Dispatch will communicate with a back-end server
which will store and request data from the cloud.
	
 
Dispatch Solution Flow

Cloud Storage

A prole for each driver is created on
Xpert Tracking (pages 4 and 5).

The driver is able to log into ELD
using these prole credentials (page 7)
	
 
ELD records the hours of service and
location of each driver in the form of
a logbook (page 22)
	
 

Xpert ELD

Xpert Tracking

Xpert Dispatch

Fleet manager is able to review each
drivers logbook on Xpert Tracking to
ensure it meets regulations.	
 

Logbook hours are transferred to
Xpert Dispatch where they can be
used by a dispatcher to assign a
future load to a driver (page 3).

Assigning a Load  For Dispatchers

Each drivers available hours will be extracted from their ELD and will be accessible to the dispatcher. The
dispatcher will then be able to use this information to appropriately assign a driver to a load.

The dispatcher can select
Drivers Available Hours on the
dispatch board, which will
extract a drivers HOS history
from their ELD logbook.

Using the average drive speed
and distance, an estimated
drive time will be given.

This estimated time can be
compared to the drivers
available time to ensure the
driver has enough hours for
the trip.

4
Creating Driver Proles  For Fleet Managers
A prole for each driver must be created by the support personnel (i.e eet or safety managers) on the
cloud through Xpert Tracking. Drivers will not have administrative access to Xpert Tracking in order to
prevent tampering and ensure the privacy of other drivers.

Creating Driver Proles  For Fleet Managers
The following information will be populated by the eet manager when creating and managing the
proles of drivers on Xpert Tracking.

Driver Name

The full legal name of the driver as issued on their license

Driver ID

A unique identier of the drivers choosing (we recommend using the drivers
email address)

Password (temporary)

A temporary password assigned to the driver for their rst login. The driver should
then edit the password after the rst login in their account settings (page 27). This new
password will be hidden from the eet manager.

Drivers License Number

The drivers license number as issued on their license

State/Province/Jurisdiction

The state, province, or jurisdiction in which the drivers license was issued.

Conguration

A drivers prole can be congured to either No Exemption or Exemption. An exempt
driver is not mandated to use an ELD. However, if an ELD device is installed in the
trailer, the driver must still log in to avoid the accumulation of unidentied hours. This
driver will log in as an exempt driver.

Authorized Personal Use

The special driving scenario Authorized Personal Use can either be set to enable or
disable by the eet manager. The default is disable. When disabled the driver will not be
able to access this setting on their ELD.

Yard Moves

The special driving scenario Yard Moves can either be set to enable or disable by the
eet manager. The default is disable When disabled the driver will not be able to access
this setting on their ELD
