The ability to Drag and SCROLL through the planning page has been replaced with new and more efficient planning functions. The new 'Select and Drop' function will provide a faster and smoother planning experience.

This change introduces multiple benefits to the user:

Introducing Block Execution function, making it easy to place orders on hold and prevent planning activity while keeping them visible in the Blocked tab.

Key Features:

• Place orders on hold – Block execution for single or planned orders.

• Clear ‘Blocked’ status – A red label is shown, along with a reason for blocking.

• Seamless unblocking – Orders can be easily restored for planning.

How It Works:

What Happens When an Order is Blocked?

Unblocking an Order

Simply navigate to the Execution panel, select Unblock Execution, and the order moves back to To Plan, making it available for planning again.

This update ensures better control over order execution, allowing users to pause orders without losing visibility.

When planning multiple orders there is now the option to select if you prefer the orders to be planned as single trips

This option gives users the ability to bulk plan multiple orders to a single resource (a subcontractor for instance), while maintaining individual trips.

The option to merge these into a single trip is still available, and when merging multiple orders to a single trip, the selected sequencing is still respected.

It is now possible to add required documents to the following configured task types:

In the event that a required document is not present, the task will show an error.

The user will have the option to manually acknowledge and bypass the error, and proceed with the task.

Alternatively the task can remain in error until the required documents are available. Once available the task can be retriggered and task workflow can continue.

The column 'AVAILABLE?' will show the current status of the resource.

There are 3 status options available:

It is now possible to see both Trailer and Containers in this pre-planning view. The Available? column will also show when viewing planning by Trailer or Container specifically.

As part of the Palletforce integration configuration, there is an option to add an Insurance code for goods. The default is to add at the Integration level. However, there are also options to set the code at both the customer and order level.

The values for these should be activated in ADDITIONAL FIELDS for both Order and Customer.

Once activated, the field 'Palletforce Insurance Code' will be available to complete. There is also the option to include a dropdown menu including the standard insurance codes.

Once set up the sending logic in the export is as follows:

When using a range of values to build a price table, there are 2 'Between' filter options to choose from. Ranges can represent anything from a postcode, quantity or distance value. When available, the 2 filter options will show as 'Between (end exclusive)' and 'Between (end inclusive)'.

Customer price lists just became more accessible with an option to EXPORT price lists now available.

From the price list, click 'Export' button and an xls file is generated and downloaded. Each download includes an Overview Tab with details of the transport charge and any additional surcharges included in the price list.

If the transport charge includes a price table, this is also included as a tab.

If container number is enabled in the order creation, it will be found under General Information.

It is possible to assign the Qargo Mobile App to a vehicle, rather than a specific driver. Assigning the app to the vehicle follows the same process as assigning to the driver. There is section in the vehicle profile 'Mobile app / Subco portal' where access to the Mobile app is activated by setting the toggle. Add the email address and Save. It is also possible to use the Pincode feature to access the app as well.

The main vehicle list page also shows the email address.

Under planning, it is now possible to export an overview of resource availability, based on the resource type. Under TO PLAN, select Resources. As you hover each line, the option to Export should show on the right side. The export will show the resource availability, including last location details.

Click on the order line (not the order number) will open the order in a detail view. Once this is closed, the page will show the last order clicked highlighted.

Consolidated pricing enables grouping of orders that meet specific criteria, allowing for enhanced rates automatically.

Configuration:

• When creating a rate card, select a consolidation method (this cannot be changed later).

• Certain charges allow selecting a consolidated metric in price tables, but only if:

• A consolidation method is set.

• The price table is Fixed amount or Per metric per order.

• The metric is a Goods metric.

How It Works:

• Orders with the same rate card, customer, and consolidation method are grouped together.

• This allows pricing to be calculated based on the combined quantity of goods.

This ensures cost efficiency while applying volume-based discounts automatically.

Once an invoice has been set to a POSTED status, the actions available are limited. For instance, it is not possible to make any changes to the invoiced amounts or customer. Also the associated order(s) will also be restricted to what can be changed, ie: modification to dates.

In order to make any changes to posted invoices, users were required to contact Qargo Admin users to unpost the invoice. This function has now been made available to SUPER ADMIN users in the account.

It is possible to Print documents directly from the invoice detail page. If selecting the Print option before the invoice has been generated, the print preview will display any associated documents that are selected to print. Once the invoice has been generated this will also show in the print preview.
