Smarttracker update version-193-61
What’s new in SmartTracker?
I. New setting: Hide vehicles without GPS device
All vehicles without GPS device have a new icon.
The system automatically hides all vehicles without GPS device when the setting is turned on (checkbox is checked). The information for those vehicles is still available in the system, it is not deleted.
Important: Although the setting is active and the vehicles are hidden, the Report module will automatically determine if a vehicle had a GPS device for the selected reporting period and will include / exclude it from the report. Thus you will not lose report information for vehicles without a GPS device and you don‘t need to remember if a vehicle had or had not a GPS device.
II. New function: Full screen map
Click on “Full screen” button on the button bar above the map to activate full screen mode.
The full screen map looks this way:
To exit the full screen click the button in the up left corner.
When in Full screen map mode, all vehicle data is being updated as per the system settings.
III. Map actualization: Bulgaria
The Bulgaria map is up to date and actualized by 31.12.2017.
IV. Address database for whole Europe
In the previous versions of the software, address database was available only for Bulgaria and Macedonia. Now the system contains addresses for the whole Europe.
V. New setting: Color for region names.
Each geocoded region in the system has a background color and a text name. The name of the region is now shown on the map in a color, selected by the user. Until now the color was always white, that was a problem for reading the name in some cases.
The setting is available in few places in the system:
In the screen “Regions -> Region list” a new column is added , containing with the color of the region name.
The very same option is available in the Region data screen, as well.
If you pick a few regions at the same time the system will allow you to change their text color as well.
You can change the text color for group of regions. In this case you need to mark the checkbox “Override object properties” in the Group settings and the system will change the color for each region.
VI. User management: Access to filters with vehicles
Until now the system allowed adding only specified vehicles or folders which the user had rights to see.
The new version of SmartTracker gives the opportunity to set the filters of vehicles as user management data so that a user will see only the vehicles that are in the selected filters.
When the filter is changed the change will automatically occur for the users that have rights to see the filter.
VII. A new setting: Driver presentation
There is a new setting added in the system, that allows you to set the way of displaying the driver‘s name in the whole system. This setting is local for each computer.
The driver‘s presentation is shown in the whole system including the Reports which contain any driver information.
VIII. New functionality: Drivers with more than one RFID card. Classification and validation of the RFID cards.
/only for clients with installed equipment for “Drivers identification”/
The system allows adding more than one RFID card for driver identification. Additionally – one can now set the active period of time for each card as well as its classification as personal or administrative card.
Using this classification the Report module of the system can now separate personal and administrative (work) mileage by the card type with which the driver has identified himself.
This function is especially useful for companies without permanent work hours who want to calculate personal and administrative mileage separately.
The card type is shown in the whole system including “RFID Identification”, the updated track of the vehicle in the “Track list”, alarms, reports and etc.
IX. New functionality: Drivers deactivation
The SmartTracker system now gives the opportunity to deactivate drivers. This option is useful in case that an employee does not work in the company any more. Now, you can simply deactivate the employee in the system and this way – you will keep all his driver data history and in the same time – assign his RFID card(s) to some other driver.
A new column – „Active“ is added in the Drivers screen (Instruments -> Advanced management -> section Drivers). In this column for the active drivers is shown “Yes” and for deactivated drivers – “No”. The deactivated drivers are colored in blue.
X. Modification in drivers information import
The system allows importing of drivers information from “.xls”,“.xlsx” and “csv” format. It is available in Instruments -> Advanced management -> section Drivers by clicking the “Import” button.

Important: The validity dates must be in “dd.mm.yyyy” format. The import file must be closed on the computer during the import.
XI. Home addresses
The SmartTracker system has a new functionality for adding home address for each vehicles and group of vehicles. Each home address has validity period for the purposes of the correct work of the system in case of change in home address.
The system allows you to select region for home address for whole group of vehicles and in addition to select different home address for specific vehicle. In this way the system will analyze if the vehicle is parked during the night in one of the selected regions.
The Home Address module in SmartTracker is available from “Regions-> Home Address”.
XII. Reports: Calculate work hours
/for clients with installed equipment for “Drivers Identification”/
Adding administrative and personal RFID cards for driver identification gives a new way of separating personal and administrative mileage for the driver. In SmartTracker Reports module there is a new setting that allows you to choose the way of calculating the personal and administrative mileage.
Attention:
• The mileage made with unknown RFID card is considered as administrative mileage for the report purposes!
• This option is shown only for clients with activated function “Drivers Identification”.
