Administrator Introduction to TripLog

Updated over a week ago

NOTICE: These instructions and features are specific to TripLog Enterprise plan administrators.

Creating a New Account

We do offer the ability to self-service and set up an account using our free Trial we recommend connecting with a member of our sales team for a demo of the features and benefits of TripLog.

To start utilizing your company account, it's important to first register online. If you haven't already, go to www.triplogmileage.com and click "Register" at the top. Click the Register New Account Button to Jump to that option.

Fill out the information requested on the registration page (if you are given a referral code, you can use that here).

Once registration has been completed, you will be taken to the "Account Setup" page. This is where you will select your country, time zone, and purpose for utilizing TripLog. During Account Setup, you will be asked questions about your industry. You can also request a demo within the registration if needed. Press "Next" and fill out your company profile. Make sure to select the correct number of users in your company that will be using TripLog and finish the account setup. You will be able to add users here or add them at a later time when you are ready. Note: When adding a user they will receive a welcome email so if you are not ready for this please wait till the next step.

Add Users

After successfully creating your company account, you will be taken to your company dashboard overview page (which will be blank due to no data input).

To add users, go to Manage β†’ Users β†’ Add User. In this "Users" page, it lists your entire team, including user roles such as admins and supervisors. Note: When adding the user they will receive a Welcome email with information on how to download the app and login to the app or web. With the Import you can choose not to send the Welcome email right away.

  2. IMPORT: Mass add/modify users through a CSV Import. Additional options are available in the import menu.
