AutoAlert iPhone and iPad Monitor Update Released

 

AutoAlert Monitor v9.4 has been released.

 

AutoAlert Monitor helps you manage your business

  • See where you’re vehicles are
  • Update your jobs on site
  • Reduce your paperwork
  • Improve communications
  • Cut costs
 

 

Fixes and enhancements for this version include:

Following your suggestions we’ve made quite a few changes and improvements to make managing your jobs and remote workers even easier.

You can now add a note for each job which is for internal use only.

This enables you to review what your engineers have written first and take out any gibberish they may have written. Once it looks professional and presentable, you can include the details on the final job sheets or invoices to be sent to your customer.

You can add attachments such as photos and documents to the job at any time, not just when the job is complete.

You can also add images and documents when you first create the job on your computer and then view the attachment when doing the job.

We’ve added some extra email checks to the initial welcome screen to make it easier to sign up with newer email domains such as .London.

As always, thanks for your comments and suggestions. Your ideas are always welcome.

We’ve also made a number of improvements to the web portal as well. You can now view your jobs by day, week or month and you can add more details to the job, even after it has been completed.

You can also add attachments to your jobs once they have been created, allowing you to send detailed drawings, contracts or information to your engineers in the field.

 

As always let us know what you think and what you want to see in future versions
