Welcome to the September 2024 release! Our system is continuously enhanced with weekly updates, and this version brings several exciting improvements. Key highlights include significant updates to the driver earnings module, driver sign-up form, the driver app, and the map page. We hope you enjoy these enhancements!
1. Enhanced Driver Earnings Module
We have introduced a new driver earnings template system that gives administrators the flexibility to create customized earnings rules and formulas for different drivers. Previously, all drivers were subject to the same formula for calculating earnings and wages. With this update, you can now define multiple earnings templates, each with its own set of rules and formulas, and assign team members to the appropriate template to calculate their income and wages accurately.
For example, you can create one earnings template for full-time drivers and another for part-time drivers. In addition, a new driver billing module is coming soon, which will allow administrators to add bonuses and deductions to system-calculated earnings and facilitate online payments to drivers.
2. New Driver Signup and Approval System
We’ve launched a new driver signup form that streamlines the process for users to sign up and become drivers on your platform. Designed to improve the driver onboarding experience, this form can be easily embedded on your website or shared directly with potential team members. New users can fill out and submit the form, after which administrators will receive real-time notifications. From the admin dashboard, administrators can review and either approve or decline new driver accounts with ease.
3. Mobile App Font Size Settings
To enhance visibility for drivers managing deliveries on the road, we’ve introduced the ability to adjust the font size within the mobile app. Based on feedback that the font size on some devices was too small, users can now modify the font size directly from the Settings page across all three of our mobile apps: the Driver App, Dispatcher App, and Merchant App.
Additionally, administrators can configure the default font size for all drivers using the Driver App via the “Settings – Mobile App” page in the admin dashboard.
4. Mobile App Custom Date Range
With the latest mobile app update, users can now select custom date or date range to view completed task history, proof of delivery, driver earnings, and dashboard reports. Previously, data could only be viewed on a daily, weekly, or limited date basis. Now, users can choose any date or date range within the past 12 months to access detailed historical data on the mobile apps.
5. Enhancements to Processed Tasks
The “Processed” task status can be used for different purposes in task management. For example, merchants can mark tasks as “Processed” when goods are ready for pickup. Previously, once tasks were marked as “Processed”, dispatchers could not bulk select them on the Map page for route optimization or bulk assignment.
This has now been improved. The system will automatically check if processed tasks have been assigned to a driver. If a processed task has not been assigned, it will appear in the “Unassigned” task tab, allowing dispatchers to select them on the map view for bulk assignment, route optimization, and job allocation.
6. Map Marker Enhancements
We’ve improved the visibility of jobs on the map view to enhance task management. Previously, when multiple jobs were located at the same address (e.g. different unit or building numbers), the markers would overlap, limiting users to only select the top task. This made it inconvenient to manage tasks. With the latest changes, users can now click on a marker to view and manage all tasks at the same location easily.
