Android 4.32.0 Release Notes

Features

  • Custom Fields Mobile Support: Users can now see all of the single line text and multi line text custom fields established on the web while creating, viewing, and editing assets. This allows technicians to capture the most up to date asset information in cells that are reportable, filterable, and viewable on the web platform. With this release, we will also be removing the ability for users to add and edit legacy custom properties on mobile. They can still view the fields they previously had created but they cannot add any new fields or edit existing ones. This was done to ensure data consistency moving forward and encourage customers move over to the new Custom Fields functionality so they can greatly benefit from the incredible value that the new feature provides. In future releases, mobile will be expanding on the types of custom fields that we support (dropdown, date, currency, and number).

Defect Resolutions

  • Limited Techs and Techs will no longer get an error message when updating a task on a Work Order

iOS 4.29.0 and Android 4.31.0 Release Notes

Features

  • Asset Archiving: In order to keep consistency across our web and mobile platform, we've taken what previously existed as active/inactive asset statuses and changed them to be archived/not archived. Previously, these statuses caused a lot of confusion and friction as users paying for asset tracking would see two options to track asset status. One via the operational status dropdown and one via this inactive/active check box. Now, users see a clear distinction in intended functionality for both of these features. Users are able to archive assets that aren't used and still retain their information to reference at a later date.
