# Driver Defect Manager

## EMDECS lets you review driver inspection reports as well as get an overview of defects reported on all units

**How to Review Defects?**

 

On the Manager portal, you can review defect reports by going to the **Fleet **menu and selecting **Defect Manager**.

The defect manager provides a listing of defects that have been reported. Search results can be narrowed down using the fields at the top, then click the **Refresh** button. The "From Date" and "To Date" fields are required.

**How to add VRMS codes to the DDP?**

 

To setup the VRMS options in your DDP you must setup **Truck/Trailer Inspection Reports**

To do this you can go to the **Fleet \> Defect Manager \> Setup Truck/Trailer Inspection Reports**

![](https://help.fleetsquared.com/galleryDocuments/edbsn47b49ff9d1e2b3dfeb406a21335aa5f89403906ba8d990cf06c7ee157d4fd52de5775fbe9d9d9933388851463a02b8bb?inline=true)

 

 

The setup wizard will pop up with 3 stops - **Task and Reason, Defects, Signatures**.

After Inputting the Task and Reason you will go to **Defects**, where you can set up the VMRS codes.

**Add new section - **to create a new Icon "Body"

**Add** - creates drill down VMRS icons inside the "Body" icon

 

 

Going back to our DDP, you will now see "Body" and drill down further to use the added VMRS Codes.
