What is the Manager Task List?
The Manager Task List provides a manager or group manager with a consolidated list of all users who have outstanding tasks related to compliance.
At the current release there are Registration and LicenceCheck sections. Future releases will include other FleetRiskManager products.
You will only see product sections if they have been switched on for your account.
If you are expecting to see sections and these are not visible, then please contact Drivetech on 01256 495731 or by replying to Fleet.customersupport@Drivetech.co.uk
Within a section the tasks may be divided into categories, for example in the Licence Checking section.
Actions are available for all categories to help you manage compliance. All categories allow standard emails to be sent to users. Download and Driver Consent actions are also available to help with data protection mandate completion.
All communications sent from the Manager Task List are logged in the user’s event log and the Manager’s event log for a complete audit trail.
Using the Email action (back to top)
You can
- Send an email to a single user by selecting the email icon
- Send an email to multiple users. Select the tick box to the left of multiple users’ names and then select the ‘email multiple drivers’ button which will appear
- Send an email to all users within a category that appear on the current screen. Select the tick box in the heading for the category and then select the ‘email multiple drivers’ button which will appear
Once the email option has been selected you will be able to change or add an email address.
In the example below, for sending to multiple users, one email address is missing and needs to be added. If the update box is ticked, the user’s account will be updated with the email address.The other two email addresses are valid but can be changed. If they are changed, the user’s account can optionally be updated with the new email address by ticking the update box.
After the Save and Continue button has been pressed, you will see a standard email template which is a copy of the one that will be sent to the user.
For LicenceCheck Data Protection Mandate-related screens, there are additional action icons

This will be displayed in a separate pop-up browser window. Any details already captured in FleetRiskManager for the user and licence will be included on the mandate. You can then print the mandate or download a copy to your computer. Please ensure you allow pop-ups from this page.
