Important Note!
The ELD Mandate requires that the Company Name match the Carrier Name the DOT Number is registered to or the DBA (Doing Business As) name that it is registered to.
A good practice to follow where there are multiple Company Locations is listed below:
DOT registered name is ABC Company.
If this company has multiple "Locations" or virtual companies that share the same DOT Number, then they should be named in the following suggested pattern:
ABC Company - Appleton
ABC Company - Green Bay
ABC Company - DenverKey Takeaway: When entering the Company Name, the registered Carrier Name is always first.
Enter in the appropriate information. Note: Fields in red are required. Additionally, the DOT Number field is not a required field, however, the DOT Number is required by the DOT in a Roadside Inspection. This is where it is entered.
Once all necessary information is entered, click Save.
