Video of a few notable recent improvements to TATEMS Fleet Maintenance Software

I wanted to get this video out to you so that you could see a few of the recent improvements we have made  to TATEMS Fleet Maintenance Software.

Here is a list of what is covered in the video.

  • Improved Fuel Log Odometer Tracking of State/Province begin and end odometer readings when a State has been selected as the state of purchase and then you double click to see the begin and end miles for a state. (4.6.09 Dec 15,2014 – Fixed calculation on 4.6.10 Dec 17, 2014)
  • Improved ability to delete equipment with large numbers of associated records that was causing an error on some larger databases. (4.6.08 Dec 8,2014)
  • Improved equipment deletion so that after deletion is complete the selected equipment in the list will be what is displayed below (4.6.09 Dec 15,2014)
  • Fixed ability to enter a zero as the sales tax precentage on a work order after some other number was used. (4.6.08 Dec 8,2014)
  • Fixed ability to change the Equipment number on a work order when opened from the work orders list screen. (4.6.08 Dec 8,2014)
  • Improved Update Odometer and Hours screen to allow updating of all four columns with a backdate on the same row. (4.6.08 Dec 8,2014)

New Parts Bin Location and Bin Number

A few weeks ago I sent an email covering some of the new features we are working on.

Here are links to the previous videos

New default search and sort preferences and hide out of service equipment 2 minute and 15 second video Here

You can see the new fuel log features being added in a  3 minute video posted Here

And here are some great improvements to the Repair Codes Cost Per Mile/Km/ Hour report and you can see that 2 minute video Here.

This weeks preview video is a little UNDER 2 minutes and shows how we are adding Bin Location and Bin Number to the Parts Inventory and how that information shows up when adding a parts to a work order.

We are still testing and working on getting everything working properly before we release 4.5.15

One thing were are working on now is that the fuel log allows duplicate odometer readings. It seems some people want duplicates but others don't. So in this upcoming version we will present you with a choice.  Then if you choose not to allows duplicates but you already have duplicate odometer readings in the fuel log you will see a report showing you all the duplicates to remove so that TATEMS can disallow them moving forward.

We will also be changing the main odometer and hours for the equipment to eliminate duplicates.

I’ll let you know when the new version of TATEMS is available (hopefully very soon!)

What do you think?

New default search and sort prefences and hide out of service equipment

A few weeks ago I sent an email covering some of the new features we are working on.

Two weeks ago I shot a short 3 minute video showing you some new features in just the fuel log

for TATEMS Fleet Maintenance Software.

You can see last weeks 3 minute video posted Here

And last week I shot a short 2 minute video showing you some great improvements to the Cost Per Mile/Km/ Hour report and you can see that 2 minute video Here.

This weeks preview video is a little over 2 minutes and shows you some improvements we are making to to allow you to default to the same search and sort choices when you open TATEMS and how you will be able to hide Out of Service equipment so you don't have to wade through equipment you don't want or need to see in the list.

We are still testing and working on getting everything working properly before we release 4.5.15

I'll let you know when the new version of TATEMS is available (hopefully very soon!)

Top 12 Improvements to TATEMS in version 4.5.10 through 4.5.14 in under 12 minutes

It's been a while since I wrote and I hope you are doing well.

Karen and I made it back to Las Vegas from Arkansas and got all our stuff out of storage last weekend.

It’s good to be back and away from all that crazy snow and tornadoes!

I wanted you to see some of the cool new improvements we've made to TATEMS from versions 4.5.10 through 4.5.14 over the past couple months.

So I made a 12 minute video showing the top 12 improvements to TATEMS.

You can view the video in full screen mode if it's too small for you.

Here's the list of the 12 items I go over in the video.

  1. The ability to choose a customer when a duplicate equipment number is detected when adding a new piece of equipment.
  2. Changed the default customer when adding a new piece of equipment so that the  customer alphabetically in the list is chosen.
  3. New Report under reports-> More Reports-> Work Orders called “Work Orders Total Costs by Serviced by Vendor”
  4. Changed the sorting for the Reports found under: Reports->More Reports->Needed Maintenance/Repairs and Repairs Completed to allow sorting by equip num or sort order and date ascending or descending order
  5. Added filtering and sorting to Needed Maintenance Repairs Tab and Repairs Completed Tab to be more like the Work Orders Tab
  6. Added function to ask if you want to delete a Needed Maintenance/ Repair when transferring it to the Repair Completed tab,  so that the Needed Maintenance/ Repairs list can be more easily maintained.
  7. Optimized the Popup Reminders screen to increase speed to pop up by over 300 % especially in a Network Environment.
  8. Changed the sales tax field work orders to always pull from the default sales tax rate in My Company Information when a new work order is created, and also makes sure that default tax rate will not automatically overwrite a non-default sales tax rate on work orders that have already been created.
  9. Updated the default sort order on the equipment list when you first open TATEMS,  so that it always starts using Sort by Equipment Num order.
  10. Added a new “Show All Dates” Button to the Fuel Log Tab so that you can see any potential see date entry mistakes of dates that might be out of your chosen date range.
  11. Added a dynamic label that displays at the top of the Fuel Log Tab to tell you what criteria you are currently viewing.
  12. Changed the displayed fuel log entries to “stick” to the last sorting and criteria chosen when navigating between different equipment.

To see all the updates listed go here

And to get the latest update go here

In the next update we will have the ability to choose hours meter readings instead or odometer readings for fuel log entries and a Parts Location and Bin number fields will be added to the Parts Inventory screen plus more. Stay tuned!

Thanks Again
