VIN Decoder Enhanced

You now control the data attributes added to a new or existing Vehicle Record in Fleetio when you decode a VIN. The updated decoder allows you to:

  1. Preview new vehicle data attributes found
  2. Compare it to current vehicle record data
  3. Choose to add or omit specific decoded data attributes to the record

Previously, decoding a VIN would automatically overwrite existing vehicle data with the latest information available.

Fleetio Go App Updates (June - July, 2022)

Enhancements 

This latest batch of Fleetio Go releases focus on redesigned menus, more accessible support, and better Home screen scanning.

iOS Go Home Screen: 

  • We helped the shortcuts on the Home screen to stand out a little more and grouped the Browse menu into sections, making it easier to distinguish parts of the app.

Android Data Entry:

  • You can now assign a new barcode to equipment or vehicles when you use the scanner on the Home screen
  • Decimal points can now be used when adding meter entries to a vehicle.

Android & iOS Shop Integration Support:

  • The Support Helpline is now available on the Fleetio Go Shop Instructions screen to help provide fast assistance to drivers when putting a vehicle in for maintenance.

Bug Fixes

With your help, we were able to identify and resolve the following Fleetio Go bugs quickly: 

  • [Android] We’ve resolved the issue causing Fleetio Go to close when navigating from the Home screen to the Nearby Shops screen. We've also stopped devices opening the Fleetio Go app without prompt.
  • [iOS] Some users noticed that offline inspections weren't resyncing correctly. We’ve fixed that so that they no longer linger in processing.
  • [Android] The Work Order list will no longer display duplicate Work Orders when you apply the “Mine” filter.
  • [iOS] We fixed an issue where the Home screen barcode scanner failed so that you can now scan barcodes to access a vehicle or piece of equipment.

If you ever encounter something that needs fixing, let us know by email at help@fleetio.com.

Get OEM-recommended service schedules for all vehicles

Fleet Managers know that implementing a preventative maintenance program can be challenging and time-consuming, especially when your fleet consists of various makes, models, and types. Following OEM recommendations for servicing is also a requirement for many OEMs to honor their warranty commitments.  

With Fleetio's updated service schedules, you can apply OEM recommended service schedules to your heavy and medium duty vehicles with a North American VIN. Previously this was limited to light-duty vehicles.  

We help you eliminate the guesswork by bringing in the OEM's recommended schedules across your entire fleet, and now you can do this for medium and heavy-duty vehicles too.

Fleetio Go App Updates (April - May, 2022)

We constantly update Fleetio Go to ensure your fleet runs smoothly. Here are the recent Fleetio Go app updates released to Fleetio GO on iOS and Android devices.

Enhancements

Issues Management - Recent improvements include editable odometer readings, obvious comments, and updated time input when creating or editing issues.

Push Notifications - We're continuing to invest in Fleetio push notifications to ensure teams stay updated. Recent releases for Android and iOS have improved notification frequency, and iOS 4.7.1 expanded Notification Settings descriptions to ensure that users understand the push notification options. 

Additions to Make Your Life (and Work) Easier

In recent releases, we've added automation, prompts, and new functionality to make Fleetio Go more intuitive. 

  • New Vehicles forms auto-filled with default information when appropriate [Android]
  • Ability to upload Equipment thumbnail photos on the Equipment edit page [iOS]
  • Red asterisks denote required vehicle fields [iOS]
  • Inspections updated to ensure that users add their signature [iOS]

Bug Fixes

With your help, we were able to identify and resolve the following Fleetio Go bugs quickly: 

  • [Android] Some users noticed the app would crash when trying to open a push notification or adding parts to a Work Order before a service task. We fixed the underlying causes.
  • [iOS] One minute, users would be scrolling on the Parts list, the next, they'd be taken back to the Part location detail screen. We get that if you choose to go to another screen in the app, you probably want to stay there, so we fixed it.
  • [Android] We fixed an issue where sometimes updating the vehicle status on an Android device would result in the vehicle's custom field data disappearing.
  • [iOS] Scanning some NFC tags brought up the right asset, but without much functionality. It's back to working as intended now. Scan away!

Service Reminder Compliance Report Update

Get the most out of your reporting

We've made updates to the Service Reminder Compliance Report. This report provides you with the ability to track and visualize preventative maintenance compliance across your fleet. 

The report currently shows the percentage of "on-time" Service Reminders throughout time and can be filtered and grouped by Vehicle, Vehicle Group, and Service Task. With this new update, we’re introducing the “smart” Estimated Meter. Previously, Service Entries with voided meter readings did not accurately calculate Service Reminder Compliance. With Estimated Meters, the closest valid meter reading is used, which results in better compliance reporting.

Vehicle Assignments Watching and Notifications

You can now watch Vehicle Assignments the same way you are able to watch Vehicles, Reminders, Service Entries, and more. Fleetio notifies Vehicle Assignment watchers whenever team members leave comments, including recommendations, notes, and questions.

Maintenance Shop Integration Tune Ups

Improved handling of Service Entry Mappings

Today, we’re bringing to you a pair of updates on the Service Entry form in the Maintenance Shop Integration that relate to how Service Codes and Service Tasks are linked. The first is an update on how you can save mappings globally for service entries, and the second is how to map service codes to service entries using the edit form. So let’s dive in: 

We’re making it easier for you to map your unmapped Service Codes to Service Tasks within Service Entries. You can now link any unmapped service tasks to service codes and even apply the changes globally to map all past and future instances of an unmapped Service Code to a specific Service Task, all with a click of a button. 

Alternatively, you can link service codes to service tasks in the Service Tasks edit form, where you can apply changes to all past entries and update across all tasks. Furthermore, all new Service Entries will contain the same mapping for Service Code to Service task from here on out.

Identify New Items in Fleetio

We are constantly adding enhancements to improve your Fleetio experience. To ensure that new items are easy to discover, we’ve added a pink visual indicator to highlight them. 

Look for pink dots and “New” callouts in the web app, highlighting new columns added throughout Fleetio, and newly added personalization options on your Vehicle pages.
