A new home screen

Shared by Loc8 • July 12, 2023

The home screen has been replaced with a far more powerful dashboard space that will provide meaningful insights for users into the day to day activity across your Loc8 system, starting with helpful pods that provide an operational overview of your customers, workforce, and financial activity from quotes through to invoices.

In addition, if you choose to purchase the dashboards addon the home screen can be upgraded to a full blown dashboard solution including multiple configurable dashboards that support custom layouts and the ability to add your own pods that are driven by the workspace views that you control. The options are virtually limitless.

Moving forward we will be introducing specialised pods that provide more valuable insight into the performance of your business. If you have any suggestions for what you'd like to see, please let us know, we'd love to hear from you!

Job calendar improvements

Shared by Loc8 • July 12, 2023

The Weekly and Work week modes now display time on the horizontal axis, with the vertical axis being used to group appointments by assignee. This layout mirrors that of the Daily view and provides a more consistent experience when moving between Daily, Weekly and Monthly modes.

With the improved layout in the Weekly and Work week modes, appointments that fall outside of business hours are now always visible as well, helping to avoid missed appointments.

In addition, the colours of appointments in the calendar are now always based on job statuses rather than assignment, which was made possible by ensuring assignment is always visible in the Daily and Weekly modes.
