Toll Summary Report
Understand and interpret road toll charges incurred by your fleet assets.
Overview
The Toll Summary report provides a consolidated view of road toll charges associated with each asset. It is designed to help fleet operators track and reconcile toll expenses incurred during asset operation over a specified time period.
This report is particularly useful for monitoring operational costs, managing toll account recharges, identifying high-usage vehicles, and supporting financial auditing or job billing processes.
Each row in the report represents a unique asset and aggregates toll charges recorded during the selected date range. Charges are typically gathered via integration with toll network data or third-party billing connectors.
Report Structure
The generated report includes the following data columns:
| Column Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Asset ID | Unique identifier for the asset that incurred the toll charges. |
| Asset Name | The label or name assigned to the asset, typically matching naming conventions in your telemetry platform. |
| Toll Date | The date when the toll transaction occurred. This is the date the asset passed through a toll road or gantry. |
| Toll Time | The exact timestamp the toll was registered, allowing correlation with trip data. |
| Toll Location | Identifies the location or toll gantry that triggered the charge, such as specific motorways or toll zones. |
| Cost (AUD) | The monetary value of the toll incurred. This amount may include GST and is displayed in AUD by default. |
| Toll Type | Indicates whether the charge was for a single toll, travel in a specific direction (e.g., Northbound), or part of a pass (e.g., Linkt trip pass). |
| Source | The origin of the toll data (e.g., Telemetry Connector, External API Integration, or ERP system). |
At the bottom of the report, a timestamp indicates when the report was generated, including the local time zone to ensure accurate reconciliation with finance systems.
How to Generate the Report
-
Navigate to Reports → Asset Telemetry → Toll Summary.
-
Select the Scope (e.g., Relative or Range) to define your reporting context.
-
Choose your desired Time Period (e.g., Today, Last 30 Days, Custom Date Range).
-
Select one or more Assets using the asset selector dropdown.
-
Click Run Report.
Once generated, the results are displayed in a tabular view and can be exported to PDF, PDF/A, XLSX or CSV for further analysis or archiving.
Applicability and Use Cases
The Toll Summary report is highly relevant for finance, operations, and fleet management teams. Below are common use cases:
1. Operational Cost Tracking
Provides a complete picture of toll expenses incurred per vehicle, allowing accurate cost allocation for each asset or job.
2. Job Billing and Reimbursements
Facilitates chargebacks or cost recovery when toll expenses must be passed on to customers or contractors.
3. Expense Auditing
Supports validation of toll charges against third-party toll provider invoices or ERP system records.
4. Usage-Based Maintenance or Planning
Helps identify high-travel vehicles operating on toll roads, which may correlate with higher maintenance needs or faster depreciation.
5. Fleet Efficiency Monitoring
Enables analysis of routing patterns and decisions—particularly if frequent toll road use could be optimised or reduced through alternative planning.
Interpreting the Data
-
High toll totals may indicate extensive motorway use or long-distance travel.
-
Unusually timed tolls (e.g., late-night charges) could suggest unexpected usage or off-shift driving.
-
Frequent identical toll locations might suggest repetitive routing or job recurrence—useful for route planning optimisation.
-
Missing toll data could indicate delayed integration syncs, unregistered trips, or missed tag reads.
Summary
The Toll Summary report offers a reliable, structured view of toll-related expenditures across your fleet. By consolidating toll data in a clear format, it empowers teams to better understand travel patterns, manage costs, and support financial reporting and operational planning.
Use this report routinely to audit travel expenses, reconcile toll invoices, and optimise fleet usage on toll routes.
