  2. From the menu, select Users.
  4. Click Add New Asset Type.
  5. Enter a name for the asset type that will be displayed in the mobile app and in the portal.

    2. If you are using the HEX code you must precede this with a '#' character, #ABCDEF for example.  You can pick a colour and find it's HEX code here.
  7. In the Sequence field select where you want this to appear in the list on the app.  Leave this at the default value if you want this to be appended to the end of the list.
  8. In the No. of Gallons field, enter the number of gallons this asset holds.
  9. In the Fill before delivery box choose if you want the enforce that the asset has been filled before it can be delivered.  In most cases this should be set to Yes.
  10. Click Save to save the new asset type.  This will be available in the mobile app following the next synchronisation.
