Allotrac Release Notes: V1.3.0 - Mobile App UX Upgrades Shift, Job Sync and Usability Fixes

📱 Mobile App – Shift Handling & Job Continuity

Jobs can now roll over across shifts, improving support for multi-day jobs and reducing allocation conflicts.

🔧 What’s New?

• In-progress jobs automatically roll over to the next shift at shift end 

• Ensures visibility of jobs in the new shift on both Allocator and Driver screens

• Preserves job state where possible (e.g., when one driver starts, the next can resume)
  
  

💡 Why This Matters

• Enables long-haul or multi-day workflows without manual reallocation

• Avoids “lost jobs” on shift transitions

• Reduces allocator rework and improves driver clarity

• Warning prompts if a second driver tries to assign same vehicle
  
  

💡 Why This Matters

• Eliminates “dual driver” conflicts

• Gives allocators clear control over shift assignments

• Enables night shift support for 24/7 operators

📋 Subgrid Column Customisation

🔧 What’s New?
