SERVICES
Changed the Service Checklist so that the items in the
checklist can be chosen by the vehicle checklist category.
Each vehicle can have a checklist category
set.
CAR JOBS LISTING
You can now do a report that shows only the wheelchair jobs
summary per car - the original report showing wheelchair
jobs as well as other jobs still remains.
Accounts
Added a new print-out for invoices, so that DVA accounts
print differently in the wide format to other accounts
8.1169
ACCOUNTS
When producing a spreadsheet from the Accounts module, the
time is added to the file name, so that you can produce
multiple spreadsheets for one day without having to rename
each spreadsheet if you produce more than one per day.
REPORTS
Added a report to show totals of cash tendered by drivers
to make checking of cash received easier. For example, if a
batch of shifts had 5 shifts, with each driver paying in 10
x $5 notes, this report would show a total of 50 x $5
notes, with a total of $250
Fixed the hide/show car number for the driver roster
print-out.
Changed to linked-shift warning when car swapping to be an
optional warning, rather than a halt.
Changed the linked_shift warning when swapping a non-link
car to a link car, as well as a link-car to a non-link car
- both of these being dependent on the
driver_linked_shift_warning being Yes
Service Due Schedule Private now shows the owner name as
well as the phone number so that you can contact the owner
to book the vehicle for service.
EXPENSES
A setting now allows you to show or hide the number of
hours in invoices
8.1166 to 8.1168
ROSTERS
Fixed
the behaviour of the Clear Link buttons when setting
regular shifts
8.1155 to 8.1165
DRIVERS
When creating holiday days for a driver, if the driver is
already on the roster for the days that you are making as
unavailable, the driver is removed from the roster for the
range of dates you are creating. You are given a warning
first.
The driver printout now has a further option where you can
display a larger amount of fuel entries.
CARS
In Reports > Cars, there are now two buttons which allow
you to make bulk changes to car owners and car groups. For
example, you may have an owner or group change which you
forgot to apply to the car when it actually occurred. These
buttons allow you to select a date range to which the
change should be applied and allows you to enter the
correct owner of group. The changes are then made in all of
the relevant tables, such as Shifts, EFTPOS, Vouchers,
Bookings, Accounts and Expenses.
Similarly, if you change the Managed status of a car, you
are able to apply that change to a date range to make it
retrospective.
8.1147 to 8.1154
ROSTERS
When you have a set of linked driver shifts and the driver
is cancelling the pay-in shift, the link to the pay-in
shift automatically reverts back to the shift before the
shift being cancelled when you click the CLEAR LINK button.
In other words, if a driver was linked Monday AM to
Wednesday PM, and he cancelled the Wednesday PM, when you
click the CLEAR LINK button, the Wednesday AM shift becomes
the pay-in shift automatically.
8.1132 to 8.1146
DRIVER ENTRY
For additional security, when drivers are entering their DA
number, the numbers being typed in are
invisible.
8.1117 to 8.1132
DRIVERS
You are now able to allocate your own choice of colours to
differentiate regular vs. casual drivers on the roster
instead of the pre-determined green and red colours.
Settings > Roster
The creation and deletion of holidays for drivers has been
revised. You can also choose to remove a range of dates
from a driver's holidays. For example, if you have a driver
on holiday for three months, and she phones to say she can
drive for two weeks in the middle of that period, you can
select just those dates and the unavailable days will be
removed.
SHIFTS
You can now choose if you want the shifts FILTER page to
always be sorted or not.
8.1093 to 8.1116
ACCOUNTS
You are now able
The driver printout has gained more options - Settings >
Shifts > Driver Printout
A new setting allows you to choose if you want drivers to
be able to edit the driver levy fields when entering their
pay-ins.
The new Parts Usage List report allows you to quickly see
when a particular part has been fitted to a
vehicle.
8.1092
Changed
the version number system.
DRIVER ACCOUNTS
You can now 'Settle Up' a driver. If, for example the
driver is leaving and has over/unders, savings or debts,
you can settle up these accounts in one process, instead of
having to go to each driver account and doing the
transaction there.
A 'Transfer' button has also been added to driver accounts,
which allows you to easily transfer monies from one account
to another, so for example, you could transfer an overs
amount to debts so as to reduce a debt amount.
You can now specify the look of the driver print-out by
selecting radio-button choices in Settings > Shifts >
Driver Print-out. You choose the placement and design of
different panels, such as Vouchers, EFTPOS, Monies, Fuel,
Checklist, Future shifts etc.
PRIVATE CARS
You can now enter faults for private cars directly into the
private car record. A private car fault is treated
differently to a fleet fault, in that it is never
'completed' as such - you enter whatever action you have
taken to rectify the fault and that then becomes a
permanent history of the faults of that private vehicle.
The faults tab for fleet and private cars sorts by the
creation date - latest first.
NEW REPORTS
Workshop job listing by mechanic - shows percentage of
labour cost for each mechanic. Can also be exported to
Excel.
Parts and Labour Markup Percentages - shows for each
invoice the markup of labour and parts.
8v2.1049
SHIFTS
You can now allocate a TYPE to your EFTPOS transactions,
where your vehicles offer more than one method of accepting
EFTPOS payments. The reporting engine also allows you to
report on your EFTPOS by type by selecting the type you
wish to report on.
8v162
ACCOUNTS
You can now specify which fields are mandatory for drivers
to fill in when entering account detailed dockets - the
choices are Passenger Name; From; To; Hours; KM. The
assumption is that the account name will always be
mandatory. The setting to make ALL account fields mandatory
still applies - this will override these individual account
settings.
VOUCHERS
You can now specify using a Yes/No radio button if you do
not want a voucher name to appear in the pull-down
selection box for both driver and admin pay-in entry.
Coupled with the Yes/No radio button to show the voucher
name in the pay-in button selection, you now have full
control over which voucher names appear in different
circumstances.
To assist drivers when entering dockets and EFTPOS, two new
features have been added.
1. Where a driver has many of the same type of docket, once
he has entered the first type of docket and tabbed to the
amount field, if he tabs into the next docket line and tabs
OVER the docket type into the amount field, once he enters
the amount and tabs to the next docket line, the docket
type will be AUTOMATICALLY filled with the preceding docket
type. This facilitates the whole process of docket entry
for drivers.
2. For depots that record the EFTPOS receipt number, a
similar feature has been included. Where you are wanting to
record individual EFTPOS receipt numbers, rather than only
the receipt of the end of shift print-out, once you have
entered the first receipt number and amount, if you tab
over the next receipt number and enter the amount, the
subsequent recipt number is AUTOMATICALLY entered.
DRIVERS
You can now specify for individual drivers which account
names will appear for selection when they are entering
account dockets.
CARS
A Gas Type field has been added to car details, where you
can record the LPG system if the car has it installed. This
field has been added to the Rego / Plate report.
The KM/litre average field now displays on each car,
instead of having to run the Car Statistics report to get
this. It also shows on the Rego/Plate report. A setting
field has been added to the Car Settings, where you can
enter the number of days that you want the calculation to
average over - eg. if you enter 30, the average is
calculated over the last 30 days.
SHIFTS
The log which records all changes to pay-ins now includes
tabs to include EFTPOS and Vouchers as well.
The SCAN button now records an entry in the log, so you can
see when a pay-in has been scanned, unscanned or when an
attempt has been made to scan a pay-in by someone who does
not have access (see below)
8v161
DRIVERS
When setting up regular shifts for drivers, you can now
specify a commission percentage that will apply for the day
of the week and shift. This overrides the cut-off
percentage if any have been set up in Settings > Baillee
Fee
SHIFTS
The SCAN button on pay-ins has been modified so that only
those users with the checkbox "Sensitive Shifts Access" can
UNSCAN a pay-in. This means that a pay-in can be checked by
any user that has access to shifts, but once SCANNED, only
specified users can now make changes to the pay-in. This
increases the security of pay-ins and allows you to 'lock'
a pay-in once it is scanned.
8.3v16
ROSTERS
When putting a driver on standby, you now have the option
to set up a regular schedule of standby shifts. You can
still just click the button to add a driver to standby for
the shift and date that you are on. But now you have
choices for - the days of the weeks, AM and PM as well as a
date range. For example, you can place a driver on standby
for all Monday PM shifts between a date range, or for all
AM shifts between two dates. This gives you extreme
flexibility for the standby function.
When archiving a driver, all regular shifts for that driver
are deleted, any holidays records, or standby records are
deleted as well. Any rostered shifts beyond today will be
cleared from the roster. Unpaid pay-ins earlier than today
will be left alone - the assumption is that the driver has
done the shifts and is therefore owing for these shifts. If
the driver’s total owing amount is anything other than
zero, the driver will still be archived - these drivers
will still hold owing balances.
8.3v15
ACCOUNTS
A new button has been created to allow the bulk creation of
invoices for all uninvoiced jobs. This prompts you for a
date range - once entered, all vouchers for that date range
will be added to an existing invoice if it already exists
for that date range, or a new invoice will be created for
that date range if it does not already exist. If the
invoice has been paid, the process will not be allowed. The
date range has to be within one calendar month. If the
Account filter or the Group filter has been used to filter
uninvoiced jobs, only those visible jobs will be
bulk-created. The existing button to add jobs to individual
invoices still works as usual.
8.3v14
ACCOUNTS
CUSTOMERS
When adding an account customer you can now allocate a
default group for that customer - this default is in
Settings > accounts. When an invoice is raised for that
customer, the customer group is automatically added to the
invoice
ROSTER
The black box that indicates that a driver has a visa
restriction has now been enhanced so that it shows the
number of shifts worked during the calendar week (Monday to
Sunday) as a white number overlayed on top of the black
warning box. The accreditation area in the driver profile
now has: Date Checked as well as Start and End Dates, so
you can enter when the visa was checked, and when the
driver is in a restricted session.
In all views, a T button between the Next and Previous
buttons has been added that takes you straight to the
current day, in whatever view you are on. The means of
selecting a view has changed - the roster now has 4
buttons: 1, 3, 5, 7 instead of a pull-down menu. Extensive
work has been done on the rosters to eliminate re-drawing
of the roster screen as far as possible.
8.3v13
SETTINGS
You can now allocate a colour to the Roster Paid Names that
you define. For example, you could define a name as
Inspection and assign a red colour to it - when you
allocate the roster car to Inspection, the background
colour changes to red.
ROSTER
When viewing 3, 5 or 7 days, you can now choose if you want
the date of the 1-day view to be in the MIDDLE of the 3, 5
or 7-day, or the FIRST date displayed on each of these
views.
The printout of the 5-day roster is now enabled.
In the STANDBY screen accessed by clicking the blue ball at
the top of the AM and PM shifts, there is now an option to
print the standby shifts
AUSTRALIAN BANKING FILE
You can now create a file to upload to your bank, so that
you can make bulk payments to drivers at one time, instead
of making individual payments for each driver via the bank.
DRIVERS
You can now make a bulk change to driver levy 1 and 2 for
all drivers, in the instance where you increase (or
decrease) the levy for all drivers.
8.3v10
PAY-INS
The order of fuel entry has been changed - Litres on the
left and Amount on the right. This has now also brought it
into line with driver entry and other amount data entry
with the amount on the right hand side.
DRIVER ENTRY
The Meter On-Off and Wheelchair Yes-No buttons can now be
hidden Settings > Shifts > Field Settings > Fields
ACCOUNTS
Fleet numbers in account invoices can now be displayed as
the Fleet number or the Registration number of the vehicle.
Settings > Accounts
8.3v9
EXPENSES
In Settings > Workshop there are now check-boxes next to
Consumables Fee and Environment Fee - if ticked, the
amounts will be automatically added to each invoice. The
normal method of clicking the labels to insert the fees
into the fields while in the invoice still applies - or
naturally you can just type the amounts
in.
PRIOR
CASH BREAKDOWN - when drivers are entering their expected
cash, if it is a positive amount, and you have allowed it
in Settings, a cash breakdown will appear for drivers to
enter. They simply have to click the number of notes and
coins - a warning displays if the cash breakdown is not the
same as the expected cash, which the driver can skip if
wanted. The entire cash breakdown can be hidden in
settings> driver.
DRIVERS
Driver birthday message - in Settings > Drivers you can
now enter a birthday message which appears after the driver
has entered his/her DA number. There is also a report
showing birthdays whose month and date are within your
selected date range.
Bank account details report has now been added - users can
only select this report if sensitive access is ticked in
their user profile
Drivers Monies Summary report - shows on one report all
balances for each driver - savings, owings and debts.
Driver Standby Report - shows a list of standby drivers by
date range, or selected driver.
Also in the driver profile, a new tab called ROSTER has
been added - here you can see the standby shifts for a
driver as well as their future rostered shifts.
When adding a standby driver, you are now able to add
multiple standby drivers at once, rather than going back to
the roster and clicking the standby button each time.
ACCOUNTS
You can allocate an hourly charge rate and an hourly driver
rate to an account name. The driver can enter the number of
hours of a job, so that the voucher amount is the hourly
rate multiplied by the hours. Similarly, the bill amount is
the number of hours multiplied by the hourly charge rate of
that account name.
ROSTERS
When allocating a driver to the roster, if the "Driver is
already allocated to a previous or next shift' warning
comes up, pressing the Enter key accepts the warning -
previously you had to click the Ok button with the mouse.
Similarly with the 'Expired License' warning - although
this was the standard behaviour with the license warning.
When clicking on a driver that is part of a link, all of
the linked shifts now appear - previously you needed to
click the Show All Unpaid Shifts button for this.
You can choose to show the Driver License Warning in
Settings, which displays an expired license warning to the
driver, as well as the warning that shows the driver is
rostered on the previous or next shift.
You can now print a report listing phone number and license
numbers
PROFITABILITY
If you make a change to an owner's name after a
profitability record has been created, a 'swoosh' button
next to the owner's name inserts the owner's name again.
ROSTERS
A settings now allows the rate column in the roster to be
used as either the % commission that the driver receives,
or the set pay rate. This means that on a shift by shift
basis, the commission % can change - useful where a car has
broken down and you want to compensate the driver. You
cannot combine the two settings - it is an either-or
situation.
CARS
A button in Cars called PRIVATE, allows you to create a
private car for workshop jobs as well as to track service
schedules for private cars. A Service Due Schedule for
Private Cars has also been added to reports. When you are
on the car filter page, you automatically view all active
fleet cars, but you can also view only archived cars, or
private cars.
A report showing insurance details for each car is now
available.
SERVICE INTERVALS
If you change a part in the service build, and you are
using service intervals, when you change any part detail in
a service build line, all vehicles using that part in their
service intervals will change as well.
ACCOUNTS
Account names can now be allocated an administration
percentage fee which can be added to invoices.
The invoice and driver rate attached to each voucher can
now be either fixed, or it can be set on a daily basis.
