Adding/Editing Log Events in Encompass® ELD for Android™

 

 

The ELD Mandate allows drivers to edit today's log, previous days' logs, as well as adding log events. When editing a log, there are two things the driver needs to keep in mind:

  1. If there isn't already a log created for that day, an off-duty log will have to be created first before being able to edit the log.
  2. Any automatically recorded driving events are unable to be edited.

Tap on the View Log icon from the Encompass® ELD Dashboard.

At the left side of the screen, tap Edit Log. The driver will then see the edit log screen which will show them their log for that day. 

  • If a previous day needs to have changes made to it, tap the Log Date to change the date or use the arrows to move to the previous or next date(s)
  • Next to each duty status change, there is an Edit button.
  • At the bottom of the list of duty status changes, there is a button to Add Event.
