🛂 Intermodal - Improved border crossing GB - NI
Customs pre-notifications are now generated automatically for shipments travelling between Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Qargo detects GB↔NI crossings using Northern Ireland's postal code prefix (BT) and generates the required customs objects automatically.
What's included:
Automatic detection of GB ↔ Northern Ireland crossings based on pickup and delivery postal codes.
A border crossing is generated specifically for UK–NI route sections, triggering the standard customs pre-notification booking flow.
Applies to both directions: Great Britain → Northern Ireland (e.g. Liverpool → Belfast) and Northern Ireland → Great Britain (e.g. Belfast → Glasgow).
Benefits:
Customers shipping between GB and NI no longer need to manually create customs bookings — they are generated automatically, in line with all other cross-border shipments in Qargo.
Reduces the risk of missing customs pre-notifications on UK-internal routes that cross the GB/NI regulatory border.
🏷️ Intermodal - Add HS commodity codes
Select HS (Harmonised System) commodity codes directly on goods in Qargo. HS codes are internationally standardised numerical codes used to classify traded products — a requirement for customs declarations to be validated and rated correctly. This removes the need to track HS codes outside of Qargo and manually reference them when generating customs documents.
What's included:
A searchable HS code dropdown on the Good Item, with code and description visible in the selection interface.
Two new optional fields on Good Item: HS code (for import classification) and HS code export override (for cases where the export code differs from the import code).
Benefits:
Goods are classified correctly at the point of entry, ensuring customs declarations can be validated without rework.
Import and export code differences can be handled in one place, reducing manual reconciliation.
Searching by code or description makes it faster to find the right classification, especially for teams handling a wide range of goods.
Qargo Mobile App - send documents to driver via WhatsApp
The WhatsApp driver chat now works in both directions for documents. Previously, drivers could send documents and media to your team — but not the other way around. Send documents directly to drivers from within Qargo.
What's included:
Upload a document from your device and send it directly in the driver chat conversation.
Attach an existing document from an open Order or Trip detail page, selecting from documents already associated with that order or trip.
Sent documents appear in the chat with a download option, consistent with how inbound driver documents are displayed.
Benefits:
Dispatchers can share CMRs, loading instructions, delivery confirmations, or other documents with drivers without leaving Qargo or switching to a separate messaging tool.
Documents attached from an order or trip maintain the context of the relevant shipment, reducing the risk of sending the wrong file.
🔎 Planning - Filter on available resources in Timeline & Blocks view
The Available filter on the planning board makes it easy to focus only on resources and resource combinations that are free of logged unavailabilities within the selected date range. Rather than scanning the entire board to find a free combination, filter to show only those that can actually be assigned.
What's included:
Available filter (Yes / No) accessible from the resource filter menu on Timeline view, Blocks view, and To-Plan Timeline view.
Combinations are filtered as a unit: if any resource in a combination (driver, truck, or trailer) has a logged unavailability, the whole combination is hidden when filtering to Available = Yes.
Unavailabilities are evaluated at full-day resolution. Absences that span midnight count against both days.
All absence types are treated equally — holiday, sickness, vehicle maintenance, and others all apply.
Benefits:
Cuts the time spent scanning through unavailable combinations during planning, especially on busy days with many resources.
Reduces planning errors by making it clear which combinations are genuinely free before assigning a trip.
🔦 Planning - Additional Resource field visibility and filtering
Show Resource fields directly into the To Plan Resources panel and use them to filter the resource list. This replaces the need to rely solely on resource groups when searching for the right driver, vehicle, or trailer.
A dedicated Customise button in the To Plan Resources section (separate from the view-level Customise button) lets you toggle custom field columns on and off in the resource table.
Custom field columns support column-level filtering: hover over a column header and click the filter icon to filter the resource list by that field's values.
Custom field values are also shown below the resource name in Timeline view and Resource Availability view, giving planners at-a-glance context without opening the resource record.
☣️ Planning - ADR log visibility improved
The ADR icon on stops in the planning board has been moved to the first position, so it is always visible even in dense views where space is limited.
ADR icon is now rendered first on stop cards, before quantity and other fields ensuring it appears even when the stop is narrow.
Planners can spot ADR goods at a glance without scrolling or expanding a stop, reducing the risk of missing hazardous goods information during route planning.
🧾 Invoices - Peppol configure document attachment
Configure document types that are automatically attached when sending invoices via Peppol — directly from the task configuration interface. Supported attachment types include proof of delivery, invoice, credit note, and other order documents.
What's included:
Document attachment configuration in CONFIGURATION > Tasks > Send to Peppol, update the Contact panel of the task.
Company-level override: where a specific customer does not need certain document types, the attachment configuration can be overridden per company from the company profile.
When triggering a Peppol action directly from the interface (rather than through automated task execution), an attachment selection modal appears — similar to the email contact task flow — select or deselect documents for that specific transmission.
Benefits:
No longer requires Qargo admin involvement to change which documents accompany a Peppol invoice — the configuration is self-service from the task UI.
Per-company overrides mean you can tailor document attachments to each customer's requirements without duplicating tasks.
