Release Notes

August 2022

New features and improvements for Order Management, our Logistics API & administering Runs are amongst the updates coming your way this month in Stream.

Release Date

Wednesday 24th August 2022
In this release:

Order Management

Cancel multiple orders at the same time in Order Search

We’ve added the ability to cancel multiple orders at the same time from the Order Search screen to stop this having to be done on an order-by-order basis. You can now simply select multiple orders (using Shift + Click or Ctrl + Click combinations) and then click ‘Actions’ followed by ‘Cancel’ to cancel multiple orders at once.

Remove order date filter if no results found in Order Search

We’ve added a button to allow the quick removal of the order date filter, if no orders are found for the default selected date range (today to 3 months prior). This is to prevent you having to perform a manual adjustment to the filter to see your orders should there be no orders appearing for the default filter.

When uploading orders, the Confirm Orders screen is now skipped when ‘auto-confirm’ is enabled

Previously users would be shown the unconfirmed orders list in ‘Order Search’ after a successful upload, even when ‘auto confirm’ had been selected. We’ve fixed this function so that if ‘auto-confirm’ is selected, users will not see the unconfirmed orders screen following their upload.

Order Monitor tooltips now showing the original planned ETA

We’ve updated the tooltip which appears when hovering over the ETA on the ‘Order Monitor’ screen to show the original planned ETA of the collection/delivery.

Integrations

Add option to default usual driver in Solutions API

If you don’t send a driver through as part of the API call, this new update can allow you to default the driver based on the ‘usual’ driver of the vehicle in Stream. (Specific to the Solutions API)

Runs & Route Planning

Extra validation to stop a departed run being opened

We’ve added a validation check so that Stream will check if a run has departed and if it has, will not allow it to be opened in planning.

Notifications

Option to ‘Opt out’ of notifications enabled in Logistics variant of Stream

For companies using the Car Transport & Logistics variant of Stream, we have now added the ability to opt your customers out of receiving email and SMS notifications from Stream, based on their preferences. This functionality is already available to other Stream users and the option to opt out of notifications can be updated by clicking ‘Edit’ on the delivery location details on an order.

Settings

Add ‘Area of Operations’ to settings

If your operation spans multiple countries, you can now edit your ‘Area of Operations’ to add or remove additional countries. The ‘Area of Operations’ settings are visible by going to ‘Settings’ and then ‘General’, where you can then add/remove the relevant countries as needed, but these will only be visible to users that have requested access to the ‘Area of Operations’ settings. .
