A permanent history correction could erase signals that some equipment genuinely needs.
Audit-ready records require false trips to disappear, while off-highway equipment may rely on the disputed field to show movement.
Who you’d be doing this for
“I’ve got records saying a parked excavator drove 24 miles overnight, and the auditor wants the source data.”
Hilde Jensen · Fleet Compliance Manager
Uses trip histories to answer questions about equipment movement during an external compliance review.
What is at stake
False trips appear in 4.8% of stationary equipment records, but some field evidence suggests the disputed signal is real. You must weigh audit-ready corrections against losing valid movement history for off-highway equipment.
Why it isn’t already fixed
Every obvious fix costs something else. That’s the part you’d have to decide.
- audit deadlines vs evidence confidence
- false-trip removal vs valid off-highway movement
- customer-history correction vs reversibility
- device truth vs cloud interpretation
Why Motive
Equipment monitoring turns Asset Gateway telemetry into location, trips, and alerts that fleet operators use to account for assets in the field.
