My Account > My Depot Preferences

You can now set your Preferred Depots once and have list and allocation views across Central-Ops open pre-filtered to the data that matters most to you.

A new My Account page (opened from the ⚙️ next to your username at the bottom of the side navigation) lets you select the depot(s) you typically work across, and your selection is remembered across sessions. Once set, those depots are applied as the default depot filter on each of the views below when you open them. You can still change the depot filter within a view at any time — those changes apply for that visit only and revert to your Preferred Depots next time you return. If no Preferred Depots are set, no depot filter is applied and all depots are shown.

Views that use My Preferred Depots as the default filter

• Operations > Charter Diary
• Operations > Jobs
• Operations > Allocations
• Sales > Quotes
• Sales > Configuration > Holidays (also accessible via Operations > Configuration)
• People > Leave

The depot filter is multi-select on every view, mirroring the multi-select on the My Account page — supporting both regional managers covering several depots and allocators working a single depot.

On the Allocations page

Allocations has a few additional refinements that go alongside My Depot Preferences:

• Depot is now a primary filter. The filter modal has been split into Primary filter (Depot) at the top and Other filters below, making it visually clear that Depot drives the whole view.
• Red warning and conflict chips now reflect your depot filter. The chip counts along the bottom of the page (No Vehicle, No Staff Member, Conflicted Vehicle, Conflicted Staff Member, etc.) now only count jobs from the depots you have filtered to. Previously these counts ignored the depot filter, so the totals could disagree with what was visible on the page.
• Changing depots refreshes everything in sync — both the timeline view and the chip counts update together, so the chip numbers always match what's on screen.
• Clicking a chip keeps your depot in place. Applying a chip preset by clicking on it & applying filters, (job type, missing-resource flags, etc.) no longer clears your Depot filter, so you stay scoped to your depots while drilling into a specific conflict.

Operations > Sort Staff on the Allocations By Driver View

You can now sort the staff list on the Allocations By Driver view — useful for surfacing drivers with the lowest or highest paid hours for the current period.

A new Sort control sits at the top of the staff sidebar, alongside the existing search field. The available sort options match the paid-hours columns configured for your account, so you only see the sort options that are relevant to you.

Key capabilities

• Sort by Name — always available, alphabetical.
• Sort by paid hours — M-F Hours, Wk Hours, or PP Hours appear based on your display mode setting.
• Toggle ascending / descending by clicking the same field again. The button icon and tooltip (e.g. Sort: M-F Hours ↓) reflect the active sort at a glance.
• Pinned rows are preserved — Unallocated stays at the top, Subcontractors stay at the bottom.
• Sort persists for the current view while you work — changing dates or scrolling won't reset it.

People > Late Driver Clock-On Tracking & Reporting

You can now report on drivers who were late clocking on for their assigned jobs — and by how many minutes — supporting payroll review, compliance follow-up, and operational performance conversations.

Each job is automatically flagged when a driver hasn't clocked on by their scheduled start time, the driver's actual clock-on time is recorded once they do clock on. Minutes Late is the difference between the two. Drivers who haven't clocked on at all are still flagged as late.

Lateness is anchored to the driver who was assigned at the time it was detected, so reassigning a job afterwards doesn't lose the record of who was actually late.

Key capabilities

• Tracks late clock-ons for both primary and second drivers on a job.
• A new Export Late Clock Ons to Excel action on People > Staff Members (under the ⋯ menu) produces a date-range report.
• The export shows the late driver, the currently-assigned driver, job number, scheduled vs actual clock-on times, and minutes late.
• The export honours the Depot, Active, and Search filters set on the Staff Members list at export time.

Workshop > Parts Register: Add, Edit & Remove Inline

Managing the parts on an asset is now faster and less error-prone. Parts are added, edited, and removed individually through dedicated dialogs that save changes immediately, rather than via a single bulk-edit form.

Key capabilities

• The parts list now shows Category, Subcategory, Part Number, Description, and Qty in a single, sortable table.
• Each row provides Edit ✏️ and Delete 🗑 actions for quick access.
• Removing a part prompts for confirmation before the change is applied.

People > Staff Role Matrix

A new Staff Role Matrix view (under People → Roles) gives People Department users a single cross-tab page for reviewing and adjusting role assignments across the workforce — answering "do I have all the right people in all the right roles?" without drilling into individual staff records.

Key capabilities

• Staff as rows, roles as columns, with a live Number assigned count under each role header that updates as you go.
• One-click assign / unassign — every cell is a checkbox. No save button, no modal.
• Click a staff name to jump straight to that staff member's record.
• Filter panel to narrow the staff list while you work.

Cells are read-only for users without People Department permission.
