Announcing X Dispatch 18.0
Geofencing
New permission-based Geofencing section in X Dispatch allows users to set a geofence radius in miles for drivers, customers, order types, business units, or globally that can raise an alert to the driver and attach status codes to the order or stop to indicate the status update occurred outside of the geofence. See Geofencing (Classic Operations App) for more information.
Release Notes and Manual
Now accessible from the toolbar.
Status Codes by Customer
Added the ability to limit status codes by customer for X Dispatch users. See Customers - New/Edit Customer.
Edit Invoiced Driver Pay
New permission to edit driver pay on invoiced orders. See Users (Classic Operations App) for more information on how to enable this permission for a user.
Driver Record Permissions
There are now two separate permissions on the driver record to "Allow updates to pieces and weight" by parcel scans or manual update. The default setting for a new driver record is disabled.
Upon upgrade:
- Both options will be enabled for any existing driver record that has the original "Allow updates to pieces and weight" enabled.
- Both options will be disabled for any existing driver record that has the original "Allow updates to pieces and weight" disabled.
See Drivers (Classic Operations App) for more information on driver records.
