Structure of an organisation
The organisation is your company profile on Depotcharge, and beneath it sit your companies (legal entities) and members. In this article, we explain how these levels relate to one another, so that you can quickly find your way around the portal.
1.Structure at a glance
- Organisation is the company profile on the platform and, at the same time, your account; there is no separate account alongside it.
- Companies are the firms or legal entities that invoice and pay.
The platform creates the first company automatically during registration, and in most cases this one is enough.
If you want to invoice separately, you can create as many additional companies as you like, with each fleet and each site belonging to exactly one company.
If you operate sites in different countries, you need a company based in each country for VAT reasons.
- Members are the people who manage your organisation, for example in dispatch, fleet management or accounting.
Your drivers, by contrast, do not need their own account, only an RFID card or the app login link for the Driver Web App.
2.Where to find the organisation
You reach your organisation via Organisation settings at the bottom of the sidebar, where you will find three tabs:
- Overview shows the organisation details such as name, email and telephone number.
- Members shows the people with their role.
- Companies shows the companies with country, VAT ID number and address.
3.Note
You can be both a depot operator and a fleet manager within the same organisation, and you simply switch the area at the top of the sidebar.
