In the TraX platform, separate companies are created to reflect the different business entities involved in operating the system. Each company represents a real-world organization, ensuring a clear separation of responsibilities and access.
- Users are assigned to the company that corresponds to their real-world organization.
- Fleets and vehicles, however, are created and managed within the TSP company.
Fleet companies and third-party companies contain users only and do not include any fleets or vehicles. It is important to note that a Fleet Company is distinct from a Fleet within a TSP company, as they represent different structural elements within the platform.

Delegated and API-powered user management
Once a company have been set up in the SKF platform, user creation can be handled in two ways:
- Manually, via the User Admin interface by a user with the User Admin role.
- Automatically, via API integration by the TSP
Centralized access control
Access to devices is managed at the fleet level by the TSP. Fleets define access rules that grant specific installer companies access to one or more fleets they manage.
- Access is typically granted indirectly via these rules
- Newly added users may experience a delay of up to 60 minutes before access is applied
Additionally, access can be assigned and adjusted individually for each user on a case-by-case basis.
