Storage-Impound
The Lot Management functionality in Ranger has been designed around the stringent requirements for a large lot operator with multiple municipal and private lots, complex fee structures and demanding operating requirements. More specifically:
Lots can be managed from a web browser on a desktop or laptop computer in an office at the Lot, and
Lots can be managed from an Android mobile device via Ranger’s new LotMasterTM app, which gives lot attendants mobility as well as the ability to process vehicles.
Vehicles towed to a Lot enter a “Pending Vehicles” area in Ranger where operationally required information–such as vehicle condition and/or pictures–can be documented and time-stamped before vehicle is even admitted to the Lot–or the vehicle can be admitted immediately.
There are three possible paths out of the Lot:
Release to Owner
Sell at auction (records sale revenue less storage/fees)
Dispose of vehicle (records parts salvaged revenue less storage/fees)
