I- New module for sending SMS
The ergonomics of the "Configure SMS" page has been reviewed in order to facilitate the use of the module.
New features:
- The SMS is sent according to the language of the recipient. Default texts have been inserted in all available languages, however these texts can be modified for your company.
- New SMS confirmation to the passenger with sending the day before the mission for all missions with a minimum status of 4.
- New SMS sent to the customer contact to confirm the stages of the missions: driver in place, passenger on board, passenger dropped off.
- In the customer list:
- Customisation of the name of the sender of the SMS for each customer.
- Configuration of the sending of SMS to passengers or customer contacts for each customer.
Important: The sending of SMS is only effective if the rules in "Configure SMS" are activated", this configuration is therefore used to deactivate the sending for certain customers.
II- Driver clocking in and out by SMS
SMS check-in allows drivers who are occasionally scheduled to check-in on their assigned missions, without having to create a WAY-D account.
5 SMS can be sent to the driver:
- Status 5: "Activate mission confirmation via SMS":
SMS sent to the driver when the mission is in status 5.
=>When the link is clicked, the booking changes from status 5 to status 6. - Status 6 "SMS to driver X minutes before mission start time" :
SMS triggered a few minutes before the start of the mission, if the mission is in status 6. This number of minutes is configurable.
=>When the link is clicked on the mission changes from status 6 to status 7. - Status 8 and 9 "Activate check-in, pick-up and drop-off via SMS" :
3 SMS triggered by each previous action.
=>When the links are clicked, the mission changes to status 8, then passenger drop and finally 9.
A link in each SMS directs the driver to a web page with the details of the mission and the link to confirm the check-in.

Good to know:
Developments have been made so that each SMS is counted as a maximum of 1 SMS sent per check-in.
III- Planning: addition of a "dropped off passenger" status
As soon as the driver clicks on "drop off passenger" on WAY-D, an icon "dropped off passenger" will be added under the status 8.
IV- Advanced customisation module
In the menu, go to "Settings > Customisation".
Each tab corresponds to a different element (quotation, invoice, voucher...) that you can customize.

It is mainly about modifying the content of the PDF.
Good to know:
Each configuration is general and will automatically apply to all documents, even those already generated.
V- Collaborator management
A new role is available for collaborator access: "read planning only". This role only gives access to the schedule and does not allow any data to be modified.
