To set up and configure your lots in Ranger, from the left navigation pane, click on Lot Management, then Configure lots.

When you reach the Company lot detail screen (see below),

1. Type the name of your lot (which will become available when entering a new job in Dispatch Direct) and complete the address, city, state and zip fields. Phone is optional but recommended. Ranger fills in an Id and the GPS coordinates.
2. You will notice that Ranger finds the GPS coordinates for the new lot in the Latitude/Longitude fields.
3. Click the save button at the bottom of the window.

Click on the sliding pane from the right side of the pane to see your lots. To add another lot, click the “Reset” button and repeat instructions above for each lot.

Assuming your pricing structures for your lot(s) have been entered previously in Ranger, you can begin choosing your lot(s) as a destination from the dispatch screen, or manually enter your existing vehicle inventory, including dates/times admitted to the lot. Ranger automatically calculates storage/impound fees and any “extras,” such as lien letter processing, the same way it calculates a tow job.
