Enhancements

App functionality improvements

Carriers can now limit drivers to truck routes if CoPilot® navigation is available (TTESUITE 200489)

Use the new setting Allow All Navigation to control what navigation system, if any, is available to drivers.

  • Set this to ON to allow drivers to use any navigation system. (This is the default setting.)

  • Set this to OFF.

    • If CoPilot navigation is available, then it appears when the driver taps the Compass on the stop page.

    • If CoPilot navigation is not available, then the Compass is not visible.

Usability (UX) and user interface (UI) improvements

Added exceptions to when TMS deletes a schedule (TTESUITE-204767)

This applies only if the Mutable Status setting is false and a schedule changes. Now, TMS only deletes the following:

  • A schedule that has not yet started.

  • For a schedule in Active status, TMS only deletes stops that are not complete or in progress. Specifically, it does not delete stops with the status Arrived or Completed, but it does delete other stops in that schedule.

Easily manage or delete your account (TTESUITE-203722)

We added two links to the About page for your convenience. The links are Manage My Trimble ID Account and Delete My Trimble ID Account.

Improved message text (TTESUITE-204601)

Previously, message text said "Trip XXX", where "XXX" is the Trip or Order number related to the message. The message is now "Trip / Order XXX" to avoid confusion.

Improved the date field on forms (TTESUITE-204360)

Now your company can modify the date field on forms so that users can specify dates more than one year into the future.

Improved usability for one Schedule Restrictions setting (TTESUITE-203832)

The app now responds better if the Schedule Restrictions setting is 2: None and the app receives a request to update or delete a stop. Now, a message indicates that there is a change. Either it explains an action you must take or it automatically takes you to the appropriate screen.

Notifications now close after a few seconds (TTESUITE-204600)

This applies only if the Schedule Restrictions setting is 2: None. Now, notifications close after a few seconds. Drivers do not have to tap OK to close the notification.

The Missing paperwork page is now available offline (TTESUITE-21186)

You can view and use the Missing paperwork page if you are offline. This feature is available if you logged in while online, before you lost network connection.

View your pay even while offline (TTESUITE-203224)

If you are offline, the Pay Summary data now appears from when you were last online.

Resolved issues

App functionality issue

  • TTESUITE-204253 The app did not send the correct version number to the host computer with each message.

Usability (UX) issues

  • TTESUITE-202981
    This affected customers with the Mutable Status set to false.

    If you updated the schedule in the CURRENT tab and a trip was in progress, then the trip incorrectly went back to the PLANNED tab.

  • TTESUITE-203747
    When you selected one or more values in a form menu, sometimes the length of the values caused other items to move off screen. This made them unavailable.

  • TTESUITE-204236
    Order summary cards displayed the destination data under ORIGIN. They should have displayed the origin data under ORIGIN.

  • TTESUITE-204331
    This affected some Samsung users, especially Samsung tablet users. The app ran slowly and sent multiple arrival, departure, and log-on messages.

  • TTESUITE-204482
    On the scan bar code screen, if you tapped the back icon, it went back two screens, not one. Any data that you entered in the form was lost.

  • TTESUITE-204598
    This happened if you upgraded from the D2Link 1 app to the current D2Link 3 app.

    Before you depart from a stop, tap Viewed to see the items that you entered. Review the list before you sign the form to complete the stop.

    After the upgrade, the Viewed button did not work.

  • TTESUITE-205008
    From the Stop Detail page of the first schedule, the user was sent automatically and incorrectly to the next schedule.

User interface (UI) issues

  • TTESUITE-201028
    On some devices, when you attached a document or image to a form message, the icon did not appear correctly.

  • TTESUITE-204469
    After a destination change was received, the onscreen text did not always update. To refresh the text, you had to leave the screen and then return.

  • TTESUITE-204599
    There was a spelling error in the Offline Mode message.

  • TTESUITE-204956
    Items List data displayed in with Trace List data. The two lists are now separate.
