T3's E-Logs web app and the E-Logs mobile app provide a method for commercial drivers to log and manage Hours of Service (HOS) records, Driver Vehicle Inspection Reports (DVIRs), and supporting documents for Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) compliance purposes.

To get started, an E-Logs Driver must be created to use the E-Logs mobile app.


Adding an E-Logs Driver to E-Logs Mobile App

Adding a driver to use the E-Logs app can be done in a few easy steps within T3. Only a Manager or Owner role has the ability to add a driver in T3. For more information, check out the Roles and Permissions article.

Before creating an E-Logs Driver in the system, you need to determine if the user will only need access to the E-Logs mobile app or if they will also need access to use T3.

Creating an E-Logs Driver that needs E-Logs Mobile App AND T3 Access

  • Select Company from the left menu.

  • From the Users tab, select the Add User button.

  • Complete the form for the user and select Save.

  • Open the app drawer from the top navigation bar and select E-Logs.

  • Select Drivers from the left menu.

  • Select the Add Driver button.

  • Complete all the fields in the Add form, including those that are not required.

    • The email address must be the same one entered when creating the T3 user profile.

    • Include the driver's First and Last Name, Driver's License, Issuing State, Cycle Rule, and Exemptions (if applicable).

    • Select a Work Reporting Location from the dropdown list options.

      • The Work Reporting Location is a branch where the driver is based and is how the driver's log will be written.

    • Select the Save button once completed.

  • The driver will receive a Welcome to T3 email and will need to download the E-Logs app from their device's app store and enter the email address and password upon login. For more information, see the Using the Contractor’s E-Logs App for a Driver.

If you've already created a T3 user who needs access to the E-Logs Mobile App, contact T3 support.

Creating an E-Logs Driver that needs access to E-Logs Mobile App ONLY

  • Complete all the fields in the Add form.

    • The email address for the driver.

    • Include the driver's First and Last Name, Driver's License, Issuing State, Cycle Rule, and Exemptions (if applicable).

    • Select a Work Reporting Location from the dropdown list options.

      • The Work Reporting Location is a branch where the driver is based and is how the driver's log will be written.

    • Select the Save button once completed.

Editing an E-Logs Driver's Settings

Once a driver is set up to use the E-Logs mobile app to stay ELD-compliant while driving, their profile settings can be edited to ensure their settings are accurate for the driver.

A Manager or Owner role within T3 has permission to log into the E-Logs browser app to manage and adjust their driver's settings. Use the driver's Edit form to update the following:

  • Name

  • Driver License

  • Issuing State

  • Cycle Rule

  • Exemption

  • Work Reporting Location

  • Time Zone

  • Send Password Reset

Follow these steps to access the driver's Edit form in T3.

  • Locate the driver from the table view and scroll to the right. Select the settings ellipsis and then Edit.

  • Make any adjustments and then click Save.

Deleting an E-Logs Driver

A Manager or Owner role can remove an E-Logs driver from the E-Logs mobile app.

  • Open the T3 Fleet web app.

  • Select Company from the left menu.

  • From the Users tab, locate the driver for removal.

  • Scroll to the right and select the settings ellipsis. And then select Delete.

  • The driver will be removed from the system.
