Release Date: August 2024
Here you will find the latest features, improvements, and bug fixes for the 365 Management.
To ensure you have the best experience using our product, we recommend updating to the latest version available.
Note: The features available to you will depend on the configuration and the current version of the 365 Management you're using.
What's New
Quantum Dispatch
For ETAs and dispatching, you now have the option for your system to consider live traffic when calculating routes. Our Live Traffic feature uses real-time traffic data to recommend the most appropriate routes for dispatch, resulting in more accurate ETAs and improved driver allocation. With Live Traffic, routes may vary at different times and days due to traffic conditions, ensuring that your system calculates routes more precisely and efficiently.
This is now available for all customers on a large scale beta.
To configure your system to use live traffic:
- In 365 Management, go to Dispatch > Dispatch Configuration > Route Calculation.
- Under ETAs and Dispatch, select the mode as Autocab Routing.
- Set the Traffic Options for both sections to Live (Beta).
- Select Save to apply your changes.
A new toggle in Dispatch > Dispatch Configuration > General Settings called 'Nearest or Soonest Vehicle?' For this setting, there are two options to choose from:
- Nearest Vehicle: The vehicle that is closest by distance is dispatched to the booking.
- Soonest Vehicle: The vehicle that will reach the pickup first is dispatched to the booking. The options in backup zones and bidding mode are also changed to 'Soonest Vehicle' upon selecting this option.
The Wall: Surge Pricing
Wall scenarios now have configurable surges for both cost and price! This allows you to have a surge pricing value for cost and for price, providing deeper configuration for your system and business.
By default, the setting 'Same Cost & Price' is enabled to not affect any existing scenarios in place.
Note: Meter Shouts still always make cost equal to price. To maintain the difference between cost and price, you have to use automatic price/cost recalculation on Shout Mode.
Functionality Groups: Pricing Tab
To improve our multicompany offering, we have added a new Pricing Tab under Functionality Groups which allows you to set pricing rules for bookings. These settings can also be be found under Global Settings - Pricing.
Functionality Groups: Bidding Settings
We have added the following two settings into Functionality Groups under the Features section:
- Limit Number of Bookings Shown
- Allow Bidding While Busy

Uplift Price Only
We have added the 'Uplift Price Only (No deduction from driver)' option in Pricing and Payments for kickback fees to establish parity with Ghost Windows.
Improvements
Driver Incentives: UI Improvements
We have introduced some improvements to the Driver Incentives feature which include:
- General UI improvements.
- The link to view Superjob recipe is now clickable on saved challenges.
- Mandatory requirement for instructions has been removed.
Driver Receipts: F9 Text
When adding or editing a receipt template in Global Settings > Printing Receipts, we have added text to the modal that states 'List of Helpful Tags (F9)', making it clearer that you can press this button to open the tags list.
Bug Fixes
- Fixed: Issue when editing the 'Party Payment' system message in Driver/Vehicles > Driver Companion > Messages > System > Exchange, an error is occurring.
- Fixed: Issue when the Time Zone feature under General Settings > User Interface is enabled, the MDT Time Zone setting in General Settings > Companies > Company > Options does not display.
