[My Lot](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/finished-vehicle-logistics-auctions?hsLang=en#my-lot) # Getting Started with Vehicle Inventory ## Learn the basics of viewing vehicle inventory and options for managing vehicles. The My Lot Vehicles page defaults to a list of assets (vehicles, trucks, trailers, etc.) so long as there is a tag association with the asset (vehicle and tag are attached). Inventory counts here will match number of vehicles displayed on the map and number of attached tags on the dashboard. To view assets that have a status of ‘Not Attached’ use the Filter option. Whereas the map displays the assets as icons (individual or cluster), My Lot provides a listing of individual vehicles. Use My Lot Vehicles to:  - View and edit vehicle details - Follow/subscribe to vehicles - View historical movements - Attach and detach tags - Navigate to vehicle Navigate to this page at any time by selecting the Vehicles option from My Lot.  ![My Lot Vehicles](https://support.cognosos.com/hs-fs/hubfs/FVL%20UG%202025/My%20Lot%20Vehicles.png?width=688&height=387&name=My%20Lot%20Vehicles.png) The Vehicle ID and Vehicle Description come from data input when the automobiles are defined in the system. Click the more… link in the Vehicle Description column to display additional information.  Current Location shows the GPS location of the vehicle (if known).The column may also display: On Site: Tag is connecting to the network so the tag is still on site, but it is not sending a fixed location Not located: No connection to tag therefore no location available to report; text in the Current Location column is grayed out (tag may have a dead battery or damage) Left Site: Tag last located in an exit zone and no communication with tag since that location Not in a zone: Confirmed connection and location for asset, but asset not inside of a defined zone   Attached to Tag # is the tag identification number for the vehicle and Tag Attachment Date indicates the date of the tag attachment to the asset. Last Movement Date, Last Activity Registered Time come from the tag’s communication with the gateway.  With the exception of Vehicle Description and Current Location, all columns can be sorted in ascending and descending order. Use [search and filters](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/searching-for-vehicles-via-my-lot?hsLang=en) to parse the vehicle list. From the vehicles list, several actions can be taken including: [edit details](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/my-lot-editing?hsLang=en), [attach/detach tag](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/attaching-and-detaching-trackers?hsLang=en), access Vehicle Details to view vehicle history and movements, follow vehicle, navigate to vehicle. Some functions are available from the Actions column and some are available from both the column and the Vehicles menu.  - [Frequently Asked Questions](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/frequently-asked-questions?hsLang=en#main-content) - [User Management](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/frequently-asked-questions?hsLang=en#user-management) - [Finished Vehicle Logistics & Auctions](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/frequently-asked-questions?hsLang=en#finished-vehicle-logistics-auctions) - [Trailer & Yard Management](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/frequently-asked-questions?hsLang=en#trailer-yard-management) - [Mobile for Logistics](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/frequently-asked-questions?hsLang=en#mobile-for-logistics) - [All](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/frequently-asked-questions?hsLang=en#all) - [User Management](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/user-management?hsLang=en#main-content) - [New Users](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/user-management?hsLang=en#new-users) - [Managing Established Users](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/user-management?hsLang=en#managing-established-users) - [All Users](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/user-management?hsLang=en#all-users) - [Finished Vehicle Logistics & Auctions](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/finished-vehicle-logistics-auctions?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Dashboard](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/finished-vehicle-logistics-auctions?hsLang=en#dashboard) - [Map Navigation](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/finished-vehicle-logistics-auctions?hsLang=en#map-navigation) - [My Lot](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/finished-vehicle-logistics-auctions?hsLang=en#my-lot) - [On Spot](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/finished-vehicle-logistics-auctions?hsLang=en#on-spot) - [System Management](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/finished-vehicle-logistics-auctions?hsLang=en#system-management) - [Task Management](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/finished-vehicle-logistics-auctions?hsLang=en#task-management) - [Trailer & Yard Management](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/trailer-yard-management?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Dashboard](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/trailer-yard-management?hsLang=en#dashboard) - [Map](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/trailer-yard-management?hsLang=en#map) - [My Lot](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/trailer-yard-management?hsLang=en#my-lot) - [System Management](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/trailer-yard-management?hsLang=en#system-management) - [Task Management](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/trailer-yard-management?hsLang=en#task-management) - [LotVision](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/lotvision?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Hardware (Trackers and Gateways)](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/lotvision?hsLang=en#hardware-trackers-and-gateways) - [Inventory Reconciliation](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/lotvision?hsLang=en#inventory-reconciliation) - [Data and Reports](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/lotvision?hsLang=en#data-and-reports) - [Settings](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/lotvision?hsLang=en#settings) - [Alerts](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/lotvision?hsLang=en#alerts) - [Zones](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/lotvision?hsLang=en#zones) - [Vehicles and Trackers](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/lotvision?hsLang=en#vehicles-and-trackers) - [The Mobile Interface](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/lotvision?hsLang=en#the-mobile-interface) - [GearTrack](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/geartrack?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Hardware (Trackers and Gateways)](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/geartrack?hsLang=en#hardware-trackers-and-gateways) - [Assets and Trackers](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/geartrack?hsLang=en#assets-and-trackers) - [Alerts](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/geartrack?hsLang=en#alerts) - [Settings](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/geartrack?hsLang=en#settings) - [Zones](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/geartrack?hsLang=en#zones) - [Data and Reports](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/geartrack?hsLang=en#data-and-reports) - [The Mobile Interface](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/geartrack?hsLang=en#the-mobile-interface) - [Mobile](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/mobile?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Logisitics iOS](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/mobile?hsLang=en#logisitics-ios) - [Logistics Android](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/mobile?hsLang=en#logistics-android) - [Support](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/support?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Documents](https://support.cognosos.com/knowledge/support?hsLang=en#documents) # Cognosos, Inc. cognosos.com Cognosos Knowledge Base Copyright © 2026, Cognosos, Inc.
