New āOut of Serviceā log for assets!
Now customers can hop into an asset profile, select the text link: āout of service log,ā and view the entire history of the asset ā from the number of days, itās been in service to the number of times itās been taken off the road, to when it was healthy and checked back in service.
Important to know:
An asset is only considered out of service for 1 day if the date changes. So if itās taken out of service at 2 pm on 2nd November and put back into service at 4 pm on 2nd November, it will not be marked as out of service for 1 day. It will only show that itās been marked out of service once.
However, if itās taken out of service at 11:58 pm on 2nd November and then put back into service at 2 am on 3rd November, it will be marked as out of service for 1 day because the date changed from 2nd to 3rd November.
This addition provides customers with a complete overview of the asset's health in one simple timeline, enabling them to make data-driven decisions around asset replacements, investments, or costs and value.

Motive Asset Sync
This update enables all vehicles and trailers/machinery to sync as assets in Whip Around from Motive. Customers can now manage all their assets in one place.
UI enhancements enable customers to choose between syncing vehicles only, trailer/machinery only, or syncing all vehicles and trailers/machinery in one go.

To enable the upgrade, customers need to click on a link specifically for their account which grants authorization to Whip Around to access the trailer/machinery asset API in Motive. Whip Around CMS will support customers to complete this action.

Labor tax on work orders

New out-of-service label
We have updated the label to better visually distinguish which assets have been marked as out-of-service across the main pages of the product.

Filter lists by team(s)
The list pages such as inspection history, defects, work orders, service schedules, and drivers received a long-awaited team filter allowing companies to filter through and see the result for the selected team(s) ā not everything all at once. This will also impact exporting, which will export information for the selected team(s) only.
Add comments on work orders
From now on, you can use the dedicated comments section on work orders. Whether itās a status update on repair, technical details, or something to note, you can use that section to keep your team updated.
Work orders generated by service schedules
We built a visual distinction for work orders automatically generated from service schedules. This will help you to identify those automated items and understand which service schedule theyāre part of more easily.
