TrackAbout Release Notes for January 2024

TrackAbout Mobile 7

  • Add New — We've added extra validation steps to help prevent users from accidentally creating an asset that has the same serial number as an existing asset, even if the user edits the serial number they entered during the registration process.

  • Delivery / Service — Comments in orders are now collapsible.

  • New Automatic Conversion on Scan Options

    • You now have the option to not automatically translate the letter "O" (either upper or lowercase) into a zero when scanning tracking and serial number barcodes. To enable this option, please contact TrackAbout support at support@trackabout.com.

    • You now have the option to specify which characters should not be automatically removed from serial number barcodes when scanned. By default, only dash characters "-" are not automatically removed during scanning. To enable this option, please contact TrackAbout support at support@trackabout.com.

    • You now have the option to stop TrackAbout Mobile 7 from automatically convert barcodes and serial numbers to uppercase when scanned. To enable this option, please contact TrackAbout support at support@trackabout.com.

  • Maintenance — The Maintenance action now allows empty bundles and packs.
