[[File:AutoGeneratePassword.png\|thumb\|Change password dialog]]Starting with version 2.97.0, users can automatically generate a new password. In the '''Change Password''' dialog, a button appears to the right of the '''New Password''' field. Clicking this button generates a password and displays an additional field containing the generated password. The generated password can be copied using the '''Copy to clipboard''' button next to the field. Note that the auto-generated password is saved only after clicking the '''Change''' button; generating the password alone does not save it.

	The method of reading a vehicle's VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) can be set to '''SPA29''', '''OBD2''', '''SPA11, BP, TEA2+, UDS, DoIP''' ''', SOVD''' or '''FIXED'''. The preferred setting for this is OBD2, whereby a standardized OBD-II diagnostic service is used to read out the VIN. SPA29 and SPA11 refers to using CAN diagnostic requests using either 29 bit or 11 bit SPA addressing respectively. The CAN channel (on the WCU) is selected in 'Default CAN channel'.

	In order for the portal to be able to translate Diagnostic Trouble Codes into a human readable format, you must choose a diagnostic DB file to be used. It is important to select the correct one as the diagnostic trouble codes read out might be translated incorrectly or (more probable), not at all. It is also important to select the right type of vehicle using “Vehicle type”. This controls the number of CAN buses and the number of Ethernet networks, if any, in the vehicle. If the selected vehicle is connected to a WCU in a resource group, strict or not, this option is disabled. To enable it it either has to be disconnected from the WCU or the WCU must be excluded from its resource group. The “Active” check box controls whether the vehicle should show up in tables and searches in general concerning cars. A vehicle can never be removed as it has probably been involved in measurements but to recall an inactivated vehicle you must actively select to view inactivated vehicles. However, if the vehicle is connected to a WCU this option will be disabled from editing. In order to deactivate such a vehicle you need to first disconnect it from the WCU. It is possible to choose not to update history vehicles with the provided changes. This option should only used in specific cases and with a well grounded reason.

	It is possible to update several vehicles at once by selecting multiple vehicles and then press the “Edit Vehicle” button. By doing this you can selectively make changes to attributes, except for the VIN and plate number, for all the selected vehicles at once. This is achieved using the extended dialog presented in Figure "Edit Several Vehicles". The options which are to be edited for all vehicles must be selected using the corresponding checkbox. If not, the option is disabled, as for instance the "Comment"-option in the "Edit Several Vehicles"-figure.

	Usually you do not have to create vehicles manually, they are created automatically by the WCU if they are not found. It is possible, however, to create a vehicle manually using the portal by pressing the button "Add Vehicle" in the vehicles panel. By doing so you will be presented with the dialog found on the right. Here you can set a number of attributes. Important to remember is that the field VIN is mandatory and must be unique among all vehicles registered on the portal. From version 2.57 of the portal the checkbox "Generate unique VIN" is present to the right of the input field VIN. By checking that box a unique VIN will be generated once you save the vehicle. The name consists of a prefix, which is centrally preconfigured, and a monotonically increasing integer number. After pressing save you will be presented with the following dialog (in the right below).
