Add Timelines to a Vehicle Record in Automotive Cloud

Add the Timeline component to a Vehicle record page to create a chronological view of events and activities derived from warranties, stakeholder information, asset-related information, and more. If you have multiple Vehicle page layouts for different users, such as dealers, service agents, and sales executives, make sure that you add relevant timelines to the page layouts. For example, if you create a timeline that shows information about warranties, recalls, and services, you can add the timeline to the Vehicle page layout for the service technician and service dealer profiles.
