Search Section
This section allows the user to search for trucks using a number of different search options. By default, it displays all trucks. By changing the search options, the user can search for specific trucks by the desired criteria.
A common use is to search for an individual truck by truck number or license plate. Users may also use the search options to locate inactive, duplicate, or incorrectly entered truck profiles that should be updated.

Using Search Results
Search results help users confirm that the correct truck profile already exists before creating a new one. This helps prevent duplicate truck profiles and keeps ACE and ACI eManifest equipment data more consistent.
Before editing or deleting a truck, users should confirm they have selected the correct truck number, VIN, and license plate. If a truck is used often, editing the existing profile is usually better than deleting it and creating a new one.
Exporting Trucks
The Export Trucks (CSV) button exports the currently displayed search results. If the user has entered search criteria, only the matching results are exported.
The CSV export can be opened in spreadsheet software to review truck numbers, VINs, license plates, and other truck profile information. This is useful for equipment audits, cleanup projects, or comparing BorderConnect truck records with an internal dispatch or maintenance system.
Best Practices
- Search for an existing truck before creating a new truck profile.
- Use truck number, VIN, or license plate searches when trying to find one specific truck.
- Review possible duplicates before deleting any truck profile.
- Keep truck profiles current so ACE and ACI eManifests contain accurate conveyance information.
- Export truck records periodically if the company wants to audit or clean up equipment data.
- Edit an existing truck profile when equipment details change instead of creating a duplicate profile.
