Following our previous release which contained comment fields, we are further improving the operational workflows with sites and chargers with this release. Find everything for this release from below:
Charger installation details
New fields available for chargers: "installation date", "parking place", "service company", "service contact person", "service email", "service phone number" and "notes"! By using these fields it is easier to keep track of the age of the charger and service company information.
We are also introducing new "parking place" field for sockets. Some charger setups are configured to report chargers as separate sockets, so this new field can be used to identify the physical location of that charger.
All of the new fields are also available through APIv2.
Site service details
You don't want to keep track of service company information on the charger level? No worries, you can also do that on the site level. We are also introducing new fields for sites: "service company", "service contact person", "service email", "service phone number" and "notes".
All of the new fields are also available through APIv2.
Charger labels
You can now add labels to chargers. These labels are visible under charger information and can also be viewed on Chargers list. Labels support a handful of different colors, so you they provide a versatile way of adding new information to chargers.
Note for our API users: labels use the "custom properties" field of the charger under the hood, so they are available through there.
Personal preferences
We are introducing personal preferences under Settings. You can save your personal preferences such as language, time zone, country and currency which will be used to customize the user interface accordingly. Corresponding fields will also show your preference as the first option to make things extra easy!
Other improvements
- Added column options for data tables. You can now reorder and hide columns as you wish and the settings will be saved.
- Charging remote starts can be initiated with a free text RFID now. By default a randomized RFID will be used, but you can manually change the RFID to which ever you want. No more need for drivers for more simple use cases.
- OCPP logs are now by default minified. You can expand the OCPP logs row-by-row by clicking "Expand", which will format the logs into a more readable format than before.
- Added "Select all" option when adding site access to operators and drivers.
- Changed date pickers to support free text inputs as well, so you can write the wanted date instead of having to click through the calendar when more appropriate.
