[Закрыто] Fleetrun updates: what's new

Dear partners,

On Friday we have finally finished working on the functionality of data import from a file. It has become possible to import intervals (besides services and line items that were available for import previously).

The general scenario of importing intervals is basically the same as in importing services and line items.

I want to pay your attention to how the dropdown for selecting the corresponding columns operates:

- selection of interval type is required, minimum one interval type should be selected. However, it is necessary to note that in case the type of interval is 'by time', then when importing the system will consider as valid those intervals that have only ONE option selected: days/weeks/months/years. If you look at creation of intervals from the intervals, you will see that we are sticking to the same logic in both places.

- for each specified interval type it is possible to specify the import of the Last service value.

---

This functionality was implemented upon the request of many of our partners, but as soon as we started the development we found out that there is nobody that could actually share with us some sample file with intervals that are potentially (in real life) are subject to import into Fleetrun. In case you have such files, we will be glad if you send them to mars@gurtam.com. We are interested in studying such files so that we can estimate how close to reality import works in Fleetrun and what can be improved.

Thank you!

Hi all!

On Friday we have delivered a small update of the application, after which it has become possible to specify not only the date on which the service was performed, but also particular hours and minutes. Such an enhancement is valuable for two cases:

- in the upcoming services there is now information about the time for which the services are planned and users can plan fleet capacity and workload;

- in the closed services it is necessary to have data on how many days, hours and minutes the unit spent in service (currently when a service is started and finished on the same date we count it as a whole 1-day service). This means that the duration of the services becomes more precise. Besides that, such a functionality is useful for calculating some custom metrics which require specifically the number of hours spent in service.

So the changes are the following:

1) you can now specify the time format in the user settings:

2) the ability to specify the hours/minutes is located in the service registration screen (it is valid for each status of service), just click the field titled Service time:

3) service time is displayed in the list of upcoming services (screen Services and reports) whereas for closed services the system displays the calculated duration of services taking into account the specified hours and minutes (screen Services and reports):
