Requirements

Before you begin installing LTL Operations Module version 2024.2, check that these requirements are met:

  • TMWSuite®

    You must be using TMWSuite V.2018.18_01.0192 or later.

  • Microsoft® .NET Framework

    Version 4.6.2 or later (full package not client)

    The framework must be installed on the LTL Operations Module server, client, and administrator systems before you install LTL Operations Module. If it is not present, the system displays an advisory message during the installation. Install the framework before running the application.

  • Internet Information Services (IIS) for Microsoft Windows Server®

    IIS Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 or later

  • Microsoft® SQL Server®

    Microsoft SQL Server 2014 or later

    Note: SQL Server 2014, SQL Server 2016, SQL Server 2017, SQL Server 2019, and SQL Server 2022 are supported. Trimble Transportation recommends using the latest service pack of whichever version you use.

  • You must be logged into the system where you want to install LTL Operations Module, and have administrator rights for that system.

    Like most applications, LTL Operations Module can be installed locally on a user’s system. It is also possible to install LTL Operations Module on a network drive. To do so, you must be logged into the system where the drive is physically located, and have administrator rights for that system.

  • SQL Server System Administrator rights are necessary.

    The installation of LTL Operations Module includes the manual application of an SQL script to the TMWSuite database. You must have a SQL Server administrator login and password to apply it.

Appointments

Resolved various bugs related to making appointments and copying/pasting appointments.

TTESUITE-208953

Status Change Dialog

The TTS50.INI setup required a reason for early/late date/times on arrivals and departures. The user could complete the status change without providing a reason - even if they entered a "bad" date/time unintentionally. Now, the user is forced to either provide a reason, fix the date/time, or cancel the status change altogether.

TTESUITE-208977

Trip Manifest Control

Resolved a bug that could cause the driver or tractor chosen in the New Trip dialog to be applied to the wrong trip (if the trips grid is sorted by that column).

TTESUITE-209001

Trip Manifest Control

Resolved a bug that could cause the arrival and departure times on a completed delivery stop to be changed incorrectly when a Pickup To Linehaul is applied to a local manifest.

Database

To improve performance, the Freight Order LTL SQL view has been modified to only look at data from within the past 3 months.

Database

New stored procedure LTLShiftlessCleaning has been created to purge shiftless data.

TTESUITE-209132

LTL Background Service

Freight Order Import now requires an exact match on External ID lookups for existing orders, and can no longer modify a completed order under any circumstance.
