# Delta: Damage & Vehicle History
## How to Compare Two Inspections of a Vehicle (Delta Feature)
## What this feature does?
\
The "Delta" (Vehicle History) feature allows you to compare two different inspection reports for the same vehicle side-by-side. It automatically highlights whether a specific scratch, dent, or part damage is new or if it already existed in a previous inspection.\
\
**When users should use it:**\
\
Use this feature when a vehicle is returned (e.g., after a rental, lease, or transport) to verify if the driver caused new damage, or whenever you need to audit a vehicle's condition over time.
**Step-by-Step Instructions**\
\
**Step 1: Access the Vehicle History (Delta) Page**
---------------------------------------------------
Log in and go to your **Home page**.
Look at the side navigation menu on the left.
Click on **Vehicle history(Delta)**.
## **Step 2: Find Your Vehicle**
* Click on the search bar and enter the **vehicle's registration number**.
* A drop-down menu will appear with matching results. Select the required vehicle from the drop-down list.\
## **Step 3: Filter the Inspections (Optional but Recommended)**
* To find specific reports quickly, use the filters at the top of the screen:
* Select the User who performed the inspection.
* Choose the Inspection Type.
* Set a Date Range (Start Date to End Date).
* Click the Apply button to update the list.\
## **Step 4: Select Inspections to Compare**
* Look at the list of all inspections for that vehicle, located on the left side of your screen.
* Select the two inspections that you want to compare (e.g., baseline and latest report) by checking the corresponding boxes.
* Once two inspections are selected, click the Compare button.
## **Step 5: Review the Damage Comparison**
* The Delta results table will now appear, showing the differences between the two dates.
* To view a New Damage: Click the damage thumbnail image in the table. A popup will appear showing a side-by-side comparison:
* Top image: Shows the new damage from the recent inspection.
* Bottom image: Shows the undamaged panel from the previous inspection.
* Click the "X" or close button to exit the popup.\
* To view an Existing Damage: Look for thumbnails indicated in Amber (orange/yellow). Click the Amber thumbnail. The popup will show that the exact same damage was detected in both the older and newer inspections.\
## **Step 7: Download the inspection**
* Once the comparison of the two inspections is completed, you can download the comparison data directly from this page.
* The **Download** option is available near the **Share** icon.
## **Step 6: Start a New Comparison**
When you are finished reviewing the current comparison, click the Clear button.
This resets your selections so you can compare two different inspection dates or search for a new vehicle.
