Get ready to unwrap a bundle of exciting updates! This release is packed with innovative features designed to elevate your logistics operations even further! At Vektor, we understand the challenges faced in logistics management, and we're committed to making our customer operations smoother and more efficient. These updates are just the beginning, as we continue to listen and innovate based on your needs. Thank you for being part of our journey to redefine what's possible in transportation management systems!

Your data is invaluable, and we're thrilled to offer new ways for you to harness its power! Introducing the Vektor AI Assistant—a personalized logistics expert that taps into your carrier data to answer questions about your organization. Now easily accessible from the main menu, this AI assistant takes the complexity out of data queries, allowing you to focus on what matters most. Please note, this is the first iteration of a sophisticated feature, and we're committed to ongoing improvements, including training our AI with industry-specific knowledge for even more nuanced insights.

The Scheduling Page is vital for efficient dispatch operations, and we've enhanced it with new personalization settings to give you unprecedented control. Here are the key improvements:
Configurable Colors & Icons: Customize the appearance of trucks and trailers.
Adjustable Truck Row Sizes: Choose from compact, medium, or wide views.
Enhanced Dark-Mode Colors: Enjoy a more comfortable viewing experience.
Driver HoS Status: View without expanding details.
Merge Manifests: Combine overlapping manifests with a single click.
Stay tuned for more exciting updates to the Scheduling Page coming soon! 🤫

We're excited to launch the Customer Portal Beta, allowing you to create a personalized portal under your domain (e.g., portal.yourdomain.com). This portal enables new customer sign-ups or invitations directly from your customer profile page. Customers can track loads in real-time, book new loads using their rate matrix, or send booking requests—all within a centralized environment. Upcoming enhancements will focus on UI personalization, allowing you to incorporate your branding throughout the portal, and refining the quote request process.

Highly requested feature: column-specific search capabilities. You can now search data within each column across all tables in Vektor, making it easier than ever to find exactly what you need. This enhancement, though minor, significantly improves data accessibility and efficiency.

Looking to fine-tune your drivers' routes? We've added the ability to customize truck routing profiles using external providers like Google Maps and Here Maps, in addition to our proprietary Vektor routing profiles. This new configuration option allows you to select specific settings for more precise and accurate route planning.

We're introducing two new driver compensation methods to enhance flexibility and fairness:
Payment Per Stop: Compensate drivers for additional stops within a manifest after the first two.
Weekly Flat Rate: Set a fixed weekly compensation for consistent earnings.

Looking to host our TMS on your domain? Now you can by connecting the subdomain and experiencing the entirely same functionality of Vektor in your domain eco-system!
ETA Calculation: Enhanced to better account for date ranges, improving accuracy.
Rate Matrix: Streamlined the rate entry process and increased rate calculation speed.
Factoring Company NOA Settings: Added the option to include an NOA stamp on the first page of invoices, in addition to the original NOA letter attachment.
Amazon Import: Now supports block imports and offers improved driver assignment post-import.
Permissions: Refined permission controls for specific roles to enhance security and access management.
Other: And a lot of other bug fixed and performance improvements.
