What's new at Loc8

The regions addon has been extended to support automatic region association for all major entities, including quotes, jobs, invoices, projects, sites, assets, customers and workforce.

Previously only quotes, jobs, assets or sites that were created or updated would be automatically associated to regions where their location fell within a region boundary. This behaviour has now been extended.

Exploring your data in all major workspaces has been simplified through a few usability improvements

• The search input has been relocated to the very top of each workspace, and is always on display rather than being hidden behind a search button
• The workspace filters, column selector, and row grouping selector are all now hidden by default, and shown simply by clicking on Sort and refine
• Workspace columns can now be re-ordered at your discretion

Creating, exploring and managing workspace views has been improved with the introduction of a range of new default views, functions and a new interface

• The display and management of views has been relocated into the new workspace context menu
• Each workspace now includes a range of new default views to help provide better visibility of your data. Each of these default views is favourited out of the box, however you can un-favourite them if you would prefer to only show your custom views
• All of your favourite views are pinned in the context menu for any given workspace, including a count for the number of results for that view

The left hand navigation menu has been overhauled, including a new interface and general usability improvements. Almost all of the items that you previously accessed from the navigation menu are still there, however the order and locations of some items have changed (please read the release notes for full details).

In addition, a new workspace and settings context menu has been introduced which consolidates various functions for the given workspace including view management, favourite views, and links to secondary spaces such as reports, imports, exports and settings.

Searching for and creating contacts against a job, quote, asset etc has been simplified through the introduction of contact type grouping and inline creation.

Now when you edit a field, for example Alternate contact on a job, you will see all of your contacts grouped into Workforce, Customer and Customer contact sections to help visualise what sort of contact they are, and as you type, if you don't see the person you're looking for you will be presented with the option to create them without having to go to another workspace to do so.

From the Share and export panel, you can now choose to

• Export or email a PDF (previously accessed via Export)
• Copy or email a link to a public web view that anyone can access (previously accessed via Open web view)
• Copy or email a link to the private web view for authenticated users, technicians and contractors in your workforce (the in-app inspector page you're likely sharing from)

You'll now be notified if someone updates something you're looking at, across all major Loc8 workspaces, be it a quote, job, invoice, asset etc.

If you are looking at a quote for example, and another person (or multiple people, or an external integration) happen to be working on it at the same time, as soon as they make a change you'll be notified in near real time that someone has updated the quote.
