Tip! This guide will walk you through a quick **Vehicle Lookup** to search for a permit in the Offstreet Dashboard, so you can find the permit and add or remove license plates. If you’re already familiar with searching for a permit using the Vehicle Lookup function, feel free to skip to [**Step 5**](https://scribehow.com/viewer/How_to_Remove_or_Add_an_Additional_Plate_to_a_Permit__G-U3aBEgSz-as7knF1Nxzg?scrollToActionId=9d894090) to view the editing permit instructions. There are several other ways to locate and view a permit in the Dashboard. Check out [**How to Find a Permit in the Offstreet Dashboard**](https://scribehow.com/viewer/How_to_Find_a_Permit_in_the_Offstreet_Dashboard__cGC_YlWKS0CTcMRhyiWjSQ) to learn more!

To do a quick search, navigate to <https://dashboard.offstreet.io/dashboard> Open the "Reporting" dropdown and select “Vehicle Lookup.” Or [[cmd]] + [[k]] to pull up the global search function. Search and click "Go to Vehicle Lookup"

Select a Location filter from the dropdown. You can narrow your search further by Tenant, or select “All Locations” to perform a quick global search across all locations. *Note: Make sure “Include Permits” is selected, since you’re searching for a permit.*

Select a Lookup By filter to choose how you want to search. You can search by License Plate Number (recommended), Confirmation Number, Additional Information, or Registration Code.

Enter the search details based on your selected Lookup By filter. In this example, search by License Plate Number (e.g., ABC123). Once the matching record appears, click the permit to open and view its details.

This will open a side panel where you can view the permit details. To make changes, click “Edit.”

To add an additional license plate to the permit, click “Add Vehicle.” The plate limit for the permit is shown beside Vehicles (e.g., 1/4 indicates one of four allowed plates has been added).

Enter the additional plate details, including the license plate number and state/province. You can continue adding plates until you reach the maximum number allowed for the permit.

If needed, you can update the permit details: - Reassign the tenant by clicking the dropdown and selecting the desired tenant. - Add notes to include any relevant information. - Edit additional information fields as needed. Once your updates are complete, click "Save" *Note: These fields are typically set when the permit is first created, so edits are only needed if updates are required.*

Once saved, the additional plate will appear under the permit details, confirming it has been successfully added.

You can also remove a license plate from a permit by clicking "Remove" under the plate details, then clicking "Save" to confirm the change. The permit will automatically update to reflect the new plate details.
