# Operator Licences

The Operator Licences settings page lets you manage your O-Licence records. In the UK, an operator licence authorises your organisation to use goods vehicles, and FleetFusion tracks these records to help you stay within your permitted vehicle counts.

## Overview

Go to **Settings > Operator Licenses** to view and manage your operator licence records. Each record captures the licence details and the number of vehicles it permits, giving you visibility into licence utilisation across your fleets.

## Field Reference

| **Licence Name**     | A descriptive name for this operator licence (e.g. "Northern Region O-Licence"). |
| **Licence Number**   | The official O-Licence number issued by the Traffic Commissioner.                |
| **Vehicles Allowed** | The maximum number of vehicles permitted under this licence.                     |

## What Operator Licences Are Used For

* **Fleet compliance** -- Operator licences are assigned to fleets via a junction table. This lets you track which licences cover which fleets and whether you are within your permitted vehicle count.
* **Licence utilisation** -- By comparing the vehicles allowed against the vehicles assigned to each fleet, you can monitor capacity and plan for licence variations.

## How to Add an Operator Licence

1. Go to **Settings > Operator Licenses**.
2. Click **+ Add Operator License**.
3. Enter the **Licence Name**, **Licence Number**, and **Vehicles Allowed**.
4. Click **Save**.
5. Assign the licence to the relevant fleets in the **Fleets** settings page.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Keep your operator licence records up to date. If your vehicle count approaches the permitted limit, you may need to apply for a licence variation with the Traffic Commissioner.
