1. A method for generating an operating time key performance indicator for displaying an operating time of a motor vehicle for a user of a management system, the method comprising:
receiving, by an electronic computing device of the management system, at least one operating parameter of the motor vehicle, wherein the electronic computing device is remote from the motor vehicle, wherein the operating time of the motor vehicle includes productive operating time and non-productive operating time;
receiving, by the electronic computing device, at least one load parameter of the motor vehicle, wherein the at least one load parameter is at least whether there is a load in a loading space of the motor vehicle, wherein when there is a load in the loading space of the motor vehicle the at least one load parameter is indicative of productive operating time and when there is not a load in the loading space of the motor vehicle the at least one parameter is indicative of non-productive operating time;
determining, by the electronic computing device, the operating time key performance indicator based on whether the received at least one operating parameter is indicative of productive operating time or non-productive operation time and whether the received at least one load parameter is indicative of productive or non-productive operating time, wherein the determined operating time key performance indicator indicates an amount of the operating time that is the productive operating time; and
displaying, by the electronic computing device, the determined operating time key performance indicator.
