  • The Live Console Summary was incorrectly showing the Status of FAIL if a collection had failed, but the GOB was recorded.  Once the GOB has been recorded it is classed as completed address and should therefore no longer show the FAIL status.

Job Screen

  • Ability to delete Documents on the Documents tab.  Make sure your cursor is on the appropriate line, then press the Delete key (on your Keyboard), you will be asked to type in a phrase which will guard against accidental deletions.

Version 6.6.848 (13th Jan 2020)

Bug fixes and amendments

  • Leaving Journease minimised for a period of time was causing Journease to crash.
  • Retrieving a customer who had NO previous addresses recorded against them was throwing up a Run time Error (although this was NOT crashing Journease).
  • After the last update, we have had a bit of feed back regarding the Live Console change and the fact that it open in a different window (most in favour - some unhappy). So we have added the following features...
    • A menu within the Live Console now allows you navigate to the most common screens
    • A customisation has been added (CSTM73987) so that when pressing the Exit Screen button on the Job screen, you are automatically shown the Live Console (providing it was previously open).  This customisation has to be added using the customisation tab in the screen - Lookup > Administration > Utilities. 

Please Note: We strongly urge you to not use this Customisation (CSTM73987) and get used to clearing the Job Screen Using the Clear Screen button) and using the buttons in the top right of the Live Console and Job Screen that will flip you between the screens.  Constantly closing and re-opening the Job screen slows Journease down.


Version 6.6.846 (12th Jan 2020)

General

Addresses

  • You can now enter Latitude / Longitude points to locate an address.  When you do this you will be prompted for a description, so it can be used in the future.  The easiest way to obtain Latitude / Longitude co-ordinates is to use Bing Maps on the web (https://www.bing.com/maps), right mouse button on a location, at the bottom of the list you will see the co-ordinates which can be copied. The co-ordinates MUST be entered as Latitude/Longitude, separated by a comma - e.g. 53.397792, -1.349849

Live Console

  • The Live Console now appears in it's own detached window outside of the main Journease application which means if you run multi-monitor system you can have it permanently showing. To switch between Live Console and Job Screen the usual buttons at the top right of the screen are still available....

  • Journease will not add the Congestion Charge if the route that is calculated merely goes through the congestion charge zone, at least one of the stops in a route HAS to be within the LONDON CONGESTION Zone Set.

  2. The Ability to Alter an Invoice is now available. You may alter the Actual Price of any Job on any given invoice.  By doing this an Invoice will automatically be displayed after you perform this action so that you can print or e-mail it.

Job Screen

  1. Adding CSTM71923 allows Journease to check previous Jobs to see if the price was different to what is currently calculated.  This box will only appear if the following are true:
    1. You've pressed the Calc J'ny button
    2. The Price on the current Job differs from the last time you did a Job with the same start and finish locations.

Although this customisation has been available for a while it now explicitly shows you ALL the address details for the last time you did the Job.  You will see a box similar to this appear.


Version 6.6.575 (15th August 2017)


Bug Fixes

  1. Job Screen - If you pressed the New Job button before selecting a Customer, the Depot Code would not update to the correct Depot (if the customers depot was different from the default Depot). If you had not pressed the New Job button prior to saving the Job you would not have experienced this bug.
  2. Browser - When exporting a Comma Separated Values (CSV) file the use of speech marks (") in any field will throw the columns out of order.  In this fix the double speech marks have be replaced by single speech marks (').

Job Screen

  1. If a customer requires a PO Number, the back ground colour of the PO Number box on the Job screen can now be changed.  Use Lookup > Default Settings > Screen Defaults (tab) to change it.

Version 6.6.574 ( 2nd August 2017 )

Stock & PID screen

  • CSTM71299 added, that makes it necessary for a second user to enter their user credentials to confirm the deletion of PIDs.  A minimum number of PIDs can be set so it only uses this double -authentication routine if a user is trying to delete more PIDs than this limit, however it can only be set in the background - so contact Journease Support if you want to enable this feature.

Version 6.6.571  (26th July 2017 )

Journease Mobile

Due to Apples terms and conditions we have had to alter the way that the Mobile App is registered.  When you create a mobile licence you will now see a User Name that needs to be used as well as the Activation Code (password).  When creating a new Mobile User the User Name is automatically taken from the following place...

  • For Mobile Accounts allocated to Suppliers it uses their e-mail address (if present), if not it will use your companies e-mail address.  It's best to try and always add a suppliers e-mail address when creating Supplier/Driver records.
  • For Mobile Accounts allocated to Vehicles it uses the Vehicle Registration number.

This update affects both the Android App and the iPhone App and will only affect new users - anyone already registered will NOT be affected.


Version 6.6.567 ( 23rd July 2017 )

Job Screen

  1. Regarding the new feature to automatically send Customer Confirmations you can add a custom code of CSTM82211Lookup > Administration > Utilities > Customisations (tab) which will always ask a question if you want to send a Customer Confirmation.  The reason being that you might enter a Job, and save it, but haven't got it into a state where you actually want to send the Confirmation at that point e.g. you haven't finalised the price.

Live Console

  1. Controller Sheet (report), now lists jobs that are on Trips.

Version 6.6.563 ( 3rd July 2017 )


Bug Fixes

  1. Invalid Postcodes no longer try to auto correct.  Journease will pop up a message indicating an invalid postcode and the user has to manually adjust it to obtain a valid Longitude/Latitude co-ordinates. Too many errors were being reported where a postcode miles from the required location was being entered.
  2. Postcode areas for foreign counties we not being validated correctly in some cases (an example of this was 95500, France was validating in Uruguay)
  3. Exporting Supplier Invoices for Xero doesn't calculate a Total.  Xero will automatically calculate the Total when importing.  This needed to be changed due to Supplier Deductions for customers that are using Self-Billing.
  4. Job Screen - Depot Code does not self-update when selecting a customer once a job has been saved.  Previously if a Depot had been manually assigned to a job and it differed to the Customers Depot, by simply putting the cursor in the Customer box and tabbing out the Depot would reset itself back to the Customers Depot or the Default Depot.


Depot Screen

  1. Cannot change or delete a Depot Code once it has been set up.  Doing so has major ramifications and you should speak with our support team before doing so.


Customer Screen

  1. New ability to Automatically Send a Customer Booking Confirmation Report when creating a Job (Job Screen Only).  Re-Saving a Job asks the user if they want to re-send the Booking Confirmation.


Browser

  1. Sales Rep added to the Customer Browser list.
  2. Exporting Data no longer shows 01/01/2000 dates for cells with an invalid/default date.
  3. Adding Customisation CSTM66389 (Lookup > Administration > Utilities screen) will ensure that any columns that are closed (in the Browser Grid) are not outputted into the export file.


Stock and PID screen

  1. Resurrecting PIDs could only be done by a full Admin operator, but now this action can be performed by a user with Warehouse Admin Rights (if CSTM11627 is switched on).


Job and Trip screen (Running Reports)

  1. If you want to include either the Job Number (for a Job Report) or a Trip Number (for a Trip report) in the Subject field when you e-mail a report, you can now use either the #JobNumber or #TripNumber tag when setting up the report on the Report Criteria tab of the Reports screen. e.g.


Version 6.6.558 ( 13th June 2017 - 14:20 )

Bug Fix

  1. When running a Costs by Supplier report with a date range it was sometimes showing old jobs that did not fall into that date range.




Version 6.6.556 ( 13th June 2017 )

Login Screen

  1. Links to this page and FAQs.

Stock & PID Screen

  1. When creating Stock there is a check box that enables you to create stock without having the PID Labels automatically printed.

Customer Screen

  1. Specific Additional Prices can be configured against individual customers, allowing each customer to have a different price configuration to the standard Additional Price configuration.
  2. A Job Question can be set up against an Additional Price which allows it to be selected at a click of a button (when booking a Job).  If the answer is Yes to the Question the Additional Price and its default values/matrices will automatically be added to the Job (unless the Additional Price has already been added and manually set).
  3. Sales Rep added to the main list of Customers (when the screen is first opened)

Sales Invoices

  1. Consolidation feature.  There is now the ability to create New Jobs from others that are for the same customer and have the same Delivery address.  Performing this action will add together totals Quantities from the chosen jobs and add them to the new Job.  The prices against all the Jobs that have been consolidated will have their prices zeroed.
  2. There is now a Warning if Sales Invoice number exists when trying to do an Invoice Run.  This should never happen, but if Credits Notes and Invoices are being generated at exactly the same time we have seen potential issues.

Job Screen

  1. When copying a job you get a separate question for resetting Supplier and Vehicle Type.
  2. SMS Button on Job Screen. On Further Information tab, the Booking.
  3. A Job can be booked directly to the Courier Exchange without having to be Posted first.
  4. Customisation CSTM44788 added that will stop any additional Product Lines being added if a Picking List has been created for the Job.

Live Console

  1. To question that pops up that asks if a Job should be removed from the Live Console when recording a POD takes the Hard Copy POD (HC POD) setting from the Customer screen.

Picking Lists

  1. If CSTM73644 is enabled, it is impossible to allocate a Picking List number to a Job Product Requirement that has no stock (PIDs), or you have previously selected other Job Product Requirements that would take to stock level below 0.
  2. Better visibility when Product Requirements are either removed from existing Picking List or moved to another Picking List

Other

  1. Warehouse Admin access has been moved to User Access screen.  Warehouse Admin is only used when Customisation (CSTM11627) is enabled.
