Example

A vehicle is idle or stopped at a location, and the fleet manager has set the OverStay Minutes threshold to 15 minutes with the status considered as Idle + Stoppage. If the vehicle remains in either of these states beyond 15 minutes at the same location, the OverStay alert is triggered. The system then sends notifications through the configured channels (SMS, Email, or In-App Notification), allowing the fleet manager to promptly investigate the cause of the prolonged inactivity or take necessary action.
