What's New in Fleet

Welcome to the Fleet What's New page.

This topic lists information about previous releases of this software and what has been improved and/or fixed in recent releases.

The current release is 2304 (January 2023). Information regarding this release can be found below.

January 2023

Bug Fixes / Technical Release Notes

• Added new translation keys to support CPRA-related changes made to reports and the UI.
• Corrected the center alignment of text in the "Category" column of the Vehicles list, causing inconsistent text appearance.
• Fixed a fault that caused an error message to be shown when exporting more than one page of Driver Forms.
• Fixed an internal server error message that could be shown when opening Driver Forms.

December 2022

Bug Fixes / Technical Release Notes

• Added a new "Base Marker" column to the "Vehicles" tab on the Maintenance screen, and to the vehicle summary shown in the upper right "Details" panel. 
• Updated the behavior of Driver Forms. Previously, the timestamp shown on these forms used the time zone of the account viewing the form. Now, timestamps are generated from the location at which the form was submitted, if a GPS signal was available at the time. If no GPS signal was available, the reader's time zone is used. In either case the time zone being used, and its UTC offset, is included after the timestamp.
• Fixed a device type name error that could be generated by manually polling a vehicle.

November 2022

Bug Fixes / Technical Release Notes

• Added new translation keys to support future CPRA personal information requests.

October 2022

Bug Fixes / Technical Release Notes

• Added new role rights to see the InSight Alerts and Setup InSight Alerts screens, to edit and delete existing InSight Alerts, and to create new InSight Alerts.
• Fixed a fault that caused the wrong warning message text to be shown when assigning a new role right to a subuser account.

September 2022

Bug Fixes / Technical Release Notes

• Fixed a fault that resulted in ELD driver accounts not being given driver assignment or public fleet rights when created by an "ELD Support Personnel" account, stopping them from being able to see or assign vehicles in WorkPlan.
• Fixed a bug when creating nearby activity reports from the Map screen (using the "Export" button after searching for a location on the Go To dialog box).
• Corrected a fault that caused an error message to be shown when moving a job to a finished route when a simple message should instead have been shown.

Bug Fixes / Technical Release Notes

• Updated the new tab management contextual menu to display correctly in all supported user interface languages.
• Fixed an error message that could be shown when connecting to the "Unit" table for an electric vehicle.
• Corrected a fault that caused some HOS driver events to display the wrong time or date after creating and saving a new event.
• Corrected a bug in the InSight Alerts Inbox screen filter that could cause both fleet and hierarchy results to be shown when filtering only by fleet.
• Fixed a rounding bug that could cause Speeding reports to contain inaccurate speed classifications.

July 2022

Bug Fixes / Technical Release Notes

• Extended the confirmation message shown when editing the structure of the Hierarchy tree (shown when moving or deleting nodes that are not empty, or that have any details specified). A confirmation message is now also shown when making these changes (moving or deleting nodes) using the UI buttons, and when cutting and pasting nodes.
• Updated several translations used for video InSight Alerts (these classifications are now shown as "Minor", "Moderate", "Major", or "Critical").
• Fixed a bug that could cause legacy "History Breadcrumb Details" reports to be empty, with a result of "Completed No Data".
• Corrected an XSLT fault in some Vehicle Maintenance reports that could result in the "Cost Summary" value always being zero.
• Fixed a bug that could stop the tab management contextual menu from correctly closing screens. 

June 2022

Bug Fixes / Technical Release Notes

• Added a new tab management contextual menu, with the ability to pin and unpin screen tabs. Right-click a screen tab to open the menu and then select the option to pin the tab, refresh the tab, close the tab, close all unpinned tabs, or close all tabs to the right of the tab. 
• Added the ability to reorder individual screen tabs by dragging them left or right with your mouse.
• Added greater support for GM electric vehicles. The Vehicles list now includes several new EV-specific columns, including battery range, percentage remaining, economy, state of health, capacity, and more. New EV KPIs have also been added to Scorecards, as triggers for Gauge Diagnostics InSight Alerts, or to be used as data in standard reports. 
• Updated the Road Edits system to show edited road segments that are not currently active (based on their effective date ranges) as gray dotted lines on the map. This allows edits that are not currently being enforced to be easily located.
• Fixed an error message that could be shown when HOS driving period data was requested from the database.
• Fixed several missing or incorrect Italian interface translations.
• Fixed a bug that could cause an empty dialog box to be shown when moving or deleting Hierarchy nodes.

April 2022

Bug Fixes / Technical Release Notes

• Added a confirmation message shown when editing the structure of the Hierarchy tree with your mouse (when moving or deleting nodes that are not empty, or that have any details specified). Previously, these changes were automatically and silently saved, which could result in accidental changes to the tree structure.

As part of this addition, columns in this screen that contain sortable data have been updated to include ascending and descending sorting (to sort, hover your mouse over the column heading, then click the downward facing arrow and select either "Sort Ascending" or "Sort Descending").
