v1.450.02026-10-06 · 04:47
  • New link for the EFS Global TMS Hub's accident reports: when a driver reports an accident in the TMS, it fetches the driver's documents from here — driving licence front and back, Driver CPC card, digital tachograph card, the DVLA licence check and the insurance declaration (Additional Driver Form) the driver signed — so motor claims get them with the report.
  • The driver is found by induction reference, then licence number, and by name only when exactly one record has that name, so a namesake is never sent someone else's licence. Every request is written to the Audit log (found or not, with what was sent).
  • Protected by the same secret already shared with the TMS for driver handovers (AGENCY_BRIDGE_SECRET) — nothing to set up.
  • The TMS also keeps a copy of these documents on each driver's file and checks every night for changes: it sends what it already holds and only new or changed files come back (a new upload, or a changed insurance declaration), so the nightly check is light. A check that finds nothing new is not written to the Audit log; every copy that is sent is.
v1.449.02026-10-06 · 10:00
  • FIX — managers can see their drivers' test results again. The company-separation work had stopped line managers reading their own team's quiz attempts, so every driver showed “Recent attempts — No attempts yet”. The Manager dashboard now loads a manager's team results through a secure route that only ever returns that manager's own drivers — no database change needed, and it can't be knocked out by the separation rules again.
  • FIX — signed contracts and documents now keep the depot's details. The per-depot company details (trading address, company email, phone, VAT number, company number) showed while the driver was filling the document in, but came out blank on the signed PDF saved to their file. The saved copy now carries exactly what the driver saw and signed.
v1.448.02026-10-05 · 12:30
  • FIX — fuel cards are now kept separate per company. The fuel-card register was showing every depot's cards to everyone (e.g. Euro SDB could see Jones Metcalf Ltd's cards). Each card now belongs to a depot, and when you're working in a company you only see that company's cards; an all-depots super admin still sees everything.
  • ⚠️ Needs a one-off database update to take effect (adds the owning-depot to each card and sorts the existing ones) — paste-in SQL has been prepared. Until it's run, a depot-scoped user will see an empty fuel-card list rather than other depots' cards.
v1.447.12026-10-05 · 09:30
  • Booking an agency driver is now easier on a phone — it's often done at night or over the weekend from a mobile, so the whole screen has been made more thumb-friendly.
  • The Depot, Agency and Company dropdowns no longer make the page zoom in when you tap them on an iPhone.
  • Bigger tap targets: on a phone the “View” and “✅ Confirm booking” buttons now go full width so they're easy to hit one-handed, and the agency-list Edit / Remove / Add / Save / Copy buttons and the “Manage this depot's agency list” link are all larger.
  • When a driver's name doesn't match across his documents, the “Name mismatch” note now shows which fields differ right on the list — before, that detail only appeared on hover, which never works on a touchscreen.
v1.447.02026-10-02 · 11:30
  • NEW — filling in a TEST application is much quicker: the photo/document steps now have a “🧪 Fill with test data” button so you don’t have to take real photos. These buttons only ever appear on a test application; a real applicant never sees them.
  • On the CV step — “🧪 Fill with test data” prefills a sample applicant (name, address, work history) and jumps straight into the form, exactly as reading a real CV would.
  • On “Scan your documents” — “🧪 Fill licence, CPC & Digi with test data” attaches sample licence (front & back), CPC and Digi card images and fills the licence number, categories and all the in-date expiry dates for you.
  • On “Your photo” — “🧪 Add a test photo” attaches a sample selfie and ticks the consent box.
v1.446.02026-10-01 · 10:30
  • NEW — when you sign an agency driver off his physical induction (day 1), there’s now a section to record any equipment you’ve given him that must come back at the end of his shift. Tick 🛰️ Sat-nav and/or 📱 Mobile phone (and add anything else, like a fuel card or PDA), then take as many photos of it as you like as proof it was handed over.
  • Where to find it: Agency inductions → open the driver → the “🛠 Physical induction (day 1)” box, just under the route-planning-device photo. Take photos with the camera or upload from the phone; remove any you don’t want with the ✕ on the photo.
  • It all prints on his saved record / PDF — the equipment issued, the time it was given, the “return at end of shift” note and every proof photo — so there’s a clear record it was lent out and must be returned. The section is optional: if he wasn’t given anything, just leave it blank.
v1.445.32026-10-01 · 09:40
  • FIX — a test application now uses whichever company you’re in. When you send yourself a test (Tools → 🧪 Test application), the link was opening the form on the wrong company — it fell back to the first depot on the list instead of the one picked at the top of the screen. It now always opens on the company you’ve selected, so the role, pay, documents and details you’re testing are that company’s.
  • The test panel now shows a line telling you which company the test will use (“Uses Euro SDB Ltd — the company picked at the top”), so there’s no doubt before you send it. Change the depot at the top to test a different one.
v1.445.22026-09-29 · 12:20
  • FIX — on Driver agency suppliers, the “Edit” button next to an agency now takes you straight to the edit box. It was working all along (it filled in the form), but that form sits below the whole list of agencies, so from the top of the page it looked like nothing happened. Now pressing Edit slides the page down to the box and puts the cursor in the agency name, ready to change.
v1.445.12026-09-29 · 11:05
  • FIX (continued) — the depot picker now genuinely scopes the data on the live site. The first attempt sent the chosen depot but the server still couldn't read it there; it's now read at the one point in the request that works reliably on live, so picking a depot narrows every list to it for real.
v1.445.02026-09-29 · 10:20
  • FIX — THE DEPOT PICKER NOW ACTUALLY WORKS ON THE LIVE SITE. Choosing a depot at the top of the screen was snapping straight back to “All depots”, and the lists still showed every depot. The chosen depot wasn’t reaching the server on the live site, so nothing was scoped. It’s now sent the same reliable way as your sign-in, so picking Euro SDB (or any depot) genuinely narrows every list to it, and the label stays put.
  • This matters for separation: until now, picking a depot on live only changed the wording — the data underneath was still all depots. Now it’s truly scoped.
v1.444.02026-09-29 · 06:53
  • 🏢 THE DEPOT PICKER NOW ALWAYS TELLS THE TRUTH. Opening the app in a second tab (a link from an email, a fresh tab) used to quietly drop the depot you had picked for every tab in the browser — the top bar still said “Euro SDB Ltd” while the dashboard, applicants and drivers came back for all depots (Mark, 29 Sep 2026: “this should be viewing as Euro SDB, I think I can still see EFS Burnley applicants”). A new tab no longer touches the choice, and the name in the top bar now comes from the server’s own answer about which depot the data is scoped to — so if it ever says a depot, the lists below are that depot’s, and if the choice has gone it says “All depots” rather than pretending.
v1.443.02026-09-28 · 20:20
  • 📱 NEW: MOBILE PHONE SIGN IN/OUT, in Drivers & kit. Keep a register of your company handsets and sign each one out to a driver and back in when it’s returned — the same idea as the fuel-card in/out log.
  • Each phone shows where it is at a glance (In the office, or Out to a driver since a date), with a full history of every out and in and who recorded it. Add a phone with a name, its number and IMEI.
  • It follows the depot picker, so each depot sees only its own phones. Find it under Drivers & kit → “Mobile phone sign in/out”. No setup needed.
v1.442.02026-09-28 · 19:30
  • 🛰️ THE AGENCY INDUCTION NOW ASKS ABOUT THE DRIVER’S SAT-NAV. Right after the TomTom declaration the driver is asked whether he has his own truck sat-nav (or a phone with truck sat-nav software) and, if so, whether it’s up to date. If he hasn’t — or it isn’t up to date — he’s told the depot will provide one (it fills in the depot’s own name, e.g. Euro SDB).
  • THE DEPOT’S EMAIL NOW SAYS WHETHER A SAT-NAV IS NEEDED, so you can have the kit ready before the driver arrives — on both the “induction completed” email and the “booking to confirm” email.
  • IT’S REMEMBERED. Next time the agency books that same driver, his sat-nav answer carries over and is included on the booking confirmation email — he isn’t asked again.
v1.441.12026-09-28 · 18:55
  • FIX — THE COMPANY NOTIFICATION RECIPIENTS BOX WOULDN’T LET YOU TYPE A COMMA. It now works like the booking one: type an address and press Enter and it becomes a tag, add as many as you like, remove any with the ×. Your existing addresses are shown as tags automatically.
v1.441.02026-09-28 · 18:30
  • ⌨️ BOOKING A DRIVER YOU’VE HAD BEFORE IS NOW TYPE-AHEAD. On “Who are you booking?” the agency can start typing the driver’s name and the matching drivers appear to pick — much quicker than scrolling a long list. Nothing here matches? It says so, and points to “New driver”.
v1.440.02026-09-28 · 18:10
  • ✉️ YOU CAN NOW RE-SEND AN AGENCY DRIVER HIS INDUCTION LINK. If a driver hasn’t finished his induction, open his record in “Previously inducted agency drivers” and use “Send link to driver” — it emails him the link (correct the address there if needed) and it opens exactly where he left off, so he only does what’s still outstanding.
  • It’s hidden once the induction is complete, and a test induction still emails only the person running the test.
v1.439.02026-09-28 · 17:40
  • 📧 YOU CAN NOW SAY WHO GETS TOLD THERE’S AN AGENCY BOOKING TO CONFIRM. Under Companies → the depot there’s a new “Agency booking — who to tell there’s one to confirm” box. When an agency books a driver we already know, everyone on that list is emailed that a booking is waiting for the office to confirm.
  • The email box takes as many addresses as you like — type one and press Enter (or a comma) and it becomes a tag, and you can add more or remove any with the ×. Leave it empty and the email uses the depot’s agency-alerts address instead, so a booking is never missed.
  • Test bookings still email only the person running the test, never the depot.
v1.438.02026-09-28 · 17:10
  • 🏢 YOU CAN NOW KEEP A DEPOT’S FULL DETAILS ON FILE, ready for any document that needs them. Under Companies → the depot → Company details there are boxes for the trading address, company email, telephone, VAT number and company registration number (registered address and legal employer name were already there).
  • Each detail has a token you can drop into any document’s text — {trading_address}, {company_email}, {company_phone}, {vat}, {company_reg}, alongside {company}, {employer} and {address}. The document then shows that depot’s own details. A box left blank simply leaves its token empty.
v1.437.02026-09-28 · 16:40
  • 📄 THE AGENCY BOOKING GUIDE CAN NOW BE SAVED AS A PDF. Open the guide and press “Save as PDF” — it opens a clean, menu-free version in a new tab where your browser’s Save as PDF gives you a tidy document to keep or email.
v1.436.02026-09-28 · 16:10
  • 📖 A PLAIN-ENGLISH GUIDE TO AGENCY BOOKING is now a page in the app. It walks through the whole thing — sending the link, the agency picking the driver, what each kind of driver has to do, confirming, and how it hands the driver over to the TMS Hub and the clocking poster. Open it from the “How booking works” button (or tile) on the Agency Booking screen.
v1.435.02026-09-28 · 15:20
  • 🔍 THE USERS PAGE NOW HAS A SEARCH BOX — type a name, email or company and the list filters as you go.
  • 🏢 THE USERS PAGE NOW FOLLOWS THE DEPOT PICKER. Pick a depot at the top of the screen and you see only that depot’s users, and a new user you add is set to that depot. Choose “All depots” to see everyone again. (Depot managers already only ever saw their own depot’s users — this brings the same to a Super Admin working inside one depot.)
v1.433.02026-09-28 · 13:30
  • 🔒 THE DRIVER / APPLICANT SIGN-IN NOW LOCKS AFTER REPEATED WRONG PINS. The “My induction & my documents” page checks an email against an 8-digit PIN; unlike the staff login it had no limit, so a wrong PIN could be tried over and over. After five wrong tries in a row that email is paused for 15 minutes, and each wrong try now takes a moment longer than the last. A correct PIN clears it straight away.
  • Nobody who signs in normally will notice. It only bites someone guessing.
  • SETUP: it needs one piece of SQL run once (supabase/migrations/20260928120000_login_throttle.sql, or migration/APPLY-login-throttle.sql for the SQL runner). Until it is run the sign-in works exactly as before — the lock simply isn’t active yet.
v1.432.02026-09-28 · 11:40
  • 🪪 YOU CAN NOW ATTACH THE DVLA SUMMARY TO AN AGENCY DRIVER’S RECORD. Until now the office could tick “I have seen & cross-checked the DVLA licence summary” and type the points — but there was nowhere to put the document itself, so nothing appeared on the printed record. Open the driver, and under the tick box there is now “Attach the DVLA summary”: one PDF, or one photo per page. It is read automatically, the date is recorded, and it prints with his record.
  • THE PRINTED RECORD NOW SAYS WHAT WAS ACTUALLY DONE when there is no copy on file: who checked the summary, when, and the points and codes they recorded — followed by a clear line that no copy was attached. Before, it said only “not supplied”, which read as though no check had happened at all.
  • The insurance outcome is on the record too — approved by the insurer, declined, or recorded by the office with no referral needed.
  • If a page is on file but cannot be opened when printing, the record says so instead of quietly leaving it out. A missing page on a compliance document should never be invisible.
v1.431.12026-09-28 · 10:05
  • FIX — PRINTED INDUCTION RECORDS CARRIED A STRAY LINE. Since Sunday every printed or saved record had “Gathering the records — the print page opens here in a moment” across the top, and the PDF was named “Gathering the records…” instead of the driver. These are filed compliance documents, so both are now gone: the holding page is cleared before the record is written, and the file is named after the driver again.
  • Re-print anything you saved since Sunday — the stray line was on the page, not just on screen.
v1.431.02026-09-28 · 09:10
  • 🖨 THE INDUCTION RECORD NOW PRINTS FROM THE RECORD ITSELF. “Save record” has gone from each line — it only ever opened the print box — and in its place, open a driver with View and there is a “Print / Save as PDF” button at the top right of his record.
  • THE PRINTOUT NOW INCLUDES EVERY QUIZ QUESTION, the right answer, and what he actually answered — including any wrong attempt and what he picked that time, with the time of each. The quiz makes him try again until he is right, so the answer he finished on is always the correct one; what this adds is what he tried first.
  • Inductions done before today only record the result against each question, not the individual answers — the record says so on the page rather than leaving a blank column.
  • THE DVLA RECORD NOW CARRIES ITS DATE: the summary line says when it was uploaded and when it was read, and each page of the check is captioned with the upload date.
  • “Save all … shown” at the top is unchanged — that is still how you take a batch in one go.
v1.430.02026-09-27 · 03:53
  • 🔎 FIVE POINTS FROM LOVABLE’S REVIEW, ALL SEEN TO. Since the documents were locked down (25 Sep) four back-office screens were still asking the browser for photo links and getting nothing: applicant card photos, a hired driver’s documents, the sat-nav photo and the agency route-device photo. Each now asks the server, which signs the link behind the same company check as the record itself.
  • 👷 An agency’s induction link no longer sticks on “Loading…” when it is opened again after the driver has been chosen — the button is live and the induction or DVLA re-check carries on from where it was.
  • 📊 Managers see their drivers’ test results again. The company-separation rules of 23 Sep had dropped the line that lets a line manager read his own team’s attempts; it is back (run the SQL in migration/APPLY-manager-attempts.sql).
  • 🏢 Driver agency suppliers: “removed ✓” only shows when the agency really was removed; if the server refused, a red line says so and the agency stays on the list.
  • 🖨️ Save the records: the print window opens on the click, before the records are gathered, so pop-up blockers no longer swallow it; if the browser still blocks it, a message says so.
v1.429.02026-09-25 · 18:05
  • 🚛 “BOOK AN AGENCY DRIVER” IS NOW A TILE ON YOUR DASHBOARD, and it opens straight onto the booking form — depot, agency, driver and the first shift — rather than the screen with the form folded up.
  • It appears on its own: you don’t have to go into “Choose tiles” to find it, even if you’ve already arranged your dashboard your own way. Nothing else on your dashboard moves. Unpin it and it stays unpinned.
  • Traffic Office and Depot Managers get it from the start, since booking agency drivers is their job.
v1.428.02026-09-25 · 17:20
  • 👷 BOOK AN AGENCY DRIVER — THE INDUCTION ONLY HAPPENS WHEN IT HAS TO. “Agency Driver Inductions” is now “Agency Booking / Induction Section”, and the link you send is a BOOKING link: the agency starts by saying who they’re booking.
  • A driver they have inducted at your depot before is picked from a dropdown — and that is the end of it. He fills in nothing, the agency uploads nothing, and the booking comes straight back to you as “Bookings to confirm”. Press Confirm and he is on the clocking poster, ready to clock in.
  • A driver who is new to us does the full induction exactly as before — licence, CPC and Digi cards photographed and checked, details confirmed, DVLA record uploaded, and then the driver himself is emailed the declarations, the bridge-strike video and the quiz.
  • If it is 84 days or more since we last checked that driver’s DVLA record, the agency is asked for that ONE document and nothing else. The insurance check re-runs on it automatically, and then the booking comes to you to confirm.
  • If WE change the induction — any of the four declarations, or the “Everyone must do the induction again” button on the Agency induction documents page — then every agency driver does the whole induction again next time their agency books them. What they signed is no longer what we ask, so their old signature does not carry forward.
  • Nothing is confirmed automatically. A booking waits for somebody in the office to press Confirm, and a driver whose licence is still with the insurer can’t be confirmed at all — the button says so and stays locked.
  • The button on the booking form now reads “Send — Book Agency Driver”, and the drivers offered are always that agency’s, at that depot only.
v1.427.02026-09-25 · 16:05
  • 🏢 PICK WHICH DEPOT YOU'RE WORKING IN. Super Admins now get a depot list in the top bar, next to your name — EFS Global Burnley, Euro SDB, Tooles Transport, EFS Traction, or "All depots". Choose one and the whole system works in that depot: applicants, interviews, agency inductions, fuel cards, uniforms, emails, staff and the audit trail all show that depot only.
  • It is a real change of scope, not just a label. Ask for Euro SDB and Euro SDB is what the lists come back with — the same view their own manager gets. Switch back to "All depots" any time; it starts there every time you sign in.
  • Your powers don't change while you're in a depot. Deleting records, Permissions, the Audit trail and the video skip PIN are all still yours — you simply stop seeing the other depots' work.
  • The Multi Depot Admin role had this picker already, but it only changed the wording on screen while the lists underneath still held every depot. That's now fixed for them too.
  • Small tidy-up: the depot name used to appear twice in the top bar. It now appears once, on the picker itself.
v1.426.02026-09-24 · 12:40
  • 🔒 THE DOCUMENTS ARE NOW SEPARATED BY DEPOT TOO. Tuesday's change split the RECORDS between EFS Global, Euro SDB and Tooles. This does the same for the FILES — licence scans, DVLA checks, right-to-work documents, signed contracts, cab and fuel-card photos.
  • Until now those files sat behind a single rule that only asked "are you an admin?", never "which depot are you?" — so a login at one company could reach another company's driver documents. It can't now.
  • Nothing changes in how you work. Every document still opens the same way, from the same place; the app fetches it for you rather than letting the browser go and get it.
  • Drivers keep full access to their own documents on their own page, and the public application form still accepts uploads as before.
v1.425.02026-09-24 · 09:30
  • 🔒 DEPOTS ARE NOW SEPARATED IN THE DATABASE ITSELF, NOT JUST ON SCREEN. The admin screens already showed you only your own depot's drivers, applicants and records. That separation is now enforced one level deeper, by the database, so a depot login cannot reach another depot's records by any route.
  • This matters because EFS Global, Euro SDB and Tooles Transport are separate companies sharing one system. Each now reaches only its own applications, agency inductions, assessments, fuel cards, interviews, emails and staff.
  • Super admins and multi-depot admins are unaffected and still see everything, as before. Nothing looks or works differently day to day.
  • Still to do: the uploaded DOCUMENTS themselves (licence scans, right-to-work, signed contracts) are held in file storage, which has its own separate rules and is not split yet.
v1.424.12026-09-22 · 09:15
  • FIX — SAVING A RECORD FAILED FOR ANY DRIVER WITH AN UPLOADED DVLA SUMMARY, which is most of the real ones. The DVLA summary is kept as four separate pages, and yesterday’s release treated the list of pages as plain text when each one is a file. Saving such a record said “None of those records could be opened”. Fixed, and one unreadable page can no longer cost the whole record.
v1.424.02026-09-22 · 08:46
  • SAVE AND EXPORT THE INDUCTION RECORDS. Previously inducted agency drivers now has a tick beside every driver and a SAVE button: take one, take the ones you tick, or take every driver the search is showing. Choose “Save as PDF” in the print box to keep the file or email it.
  • EACH RECORD SHOWS EXACTLY WHAT HE DID. Who he is (name, date of birth, licence number, agency, depot, dates, and the first shift he was booked for). Then every step with the time it happened: which cards were photographed and what expiry was read off each, the ID selfie and how the face check went, how the DVLA record was supplied, every declaration with who signed it and when, the BRIDGE STRIKE AWARENESS VIDEO, the quiz — how many he got right, how many wrong attempts, and when he passed — and the day-one physical sign-off with both signatures and the items covered.
  • AND IT CARRIES THE PICTURES. The photographs of his driving licence front and back, his Driver CPC card, his Digi card, his ID selfie, the route-planning device if one was photographed, and every page of his DVLA licence record. Anything he did not supply is marked “Not supplied” rather than quietly left out. A test induction says so on the front, and so does a ban.
v1.423.02026-09-22 · 08:41
  • THE DRIVER NOW REACHES THE TMS HUB WHEN THE AGENCY FINISHES THEIR HALF, not at the very end of the induction. Mark: “they will only do the 2nd part after they should have scanned in” — which is right. The driver’s own half (the declarations, the bridge-strike video and the quiz) is done on his phone in his own time, realistically after he has already turned up for work. Handing him over only when that was finished would have put his name on the clocking poster the morning AFTER he needed it.
  • The agency’s half is enough to know who he is — his name, his agency, his licence and his mobile are all in by then. He is handed over again at the end, and the hub records which half is done, so the office can see that a man standing in the yard still owes them the second part.
v1.422.22026-09-22 · 08:24
  • FIX — THE FIRST EMAIL OF A TEST STILL WASN’T SENDING. The “🧪 Test induction” button deliberately creates the link WITHOUT emailing the agency — it opens the link in a new tab instead — so the invite, the very first email of the whole flow, was the one email a rehearsal could never show you. On a test it now goes out regardless, to you, because seeing every email is the entire point of a rehearsal.
  • The confirmation now says where it went: “the agency’s invite has been emailed to you” on a test, rather than implying the agency was written to.
  • If an email ever looks missing, Admin → Email → EMAIL LOG lists every send with who it went to, the subject, and whether it succeeded or why it failed. That is the place to look first.
v1.422.12026-09-22 · 07:58
  • FIX — THE TEST EMAILS WERE NOT SENDING. Yesterday’s dress-rehearsal release worked out who to send a test’s emails to by reading an email column on the staff record that does not exist in this app, so it always came back empty and every test email was quietly skipped. It now reads the right ones, falling back to your sign-in address.
  • A test induction already on the go fixes itself: open Agency Driver Inductions once while signed in and your address is stamped on any test that is missing one. Tests started before the dress-rehearsal release are picked up the same way.
  • AND IT CAN NO LONGER FAIL IN SILENCE. The handover screen used to say “recorded — test induction, so no real email was sent”, which was true once and stopped being true, and was hiding this. It now says what actually happened: sent to you, sent to the driver, or not sent and why.
v1.422.02026-09-22 · 07:45
  • A TEST INDUCTION IS NOW A FULL DRESS REHEARSAL. Every email a real induction would send is sent — the invite to the agency, the driver’s own link, the expired-card and ban-match alerts, the DVLA outcome, the quiz warnings and the completion notice — but they all come to YOU, the person who set the test up, and to nobody else. Each one carries the real subject and the real wording, with a banner at the top saying exactly who it would have gone to. Before this a test sent nothing at all, so you could walk the whole flow and never once see what the depot, the agency or the driver actually receives.
  • AND A TEST NOW REACHES THE TMS HUB. Completing a test induction hands the driver over like a real one, so the whole chain can be proved end to end without inducting anybody real. He arrives in the hub with “(TEST)” on the end of his name — on the clocking poster and on every wage screen — so he cannot be mistaken for a real driver, and he is easy to find and delete when you are done.
  • Nothing changes for a real induction: its emails go where they always did.
v1.421.02026-09-22 · 06:41
  • THE JOB DETAILS NOW GO ON THE AGENCY LINK. When you send an agency their induction link you can set the FIRST SHIFT — the date, the time the driver is expected on site, optionally when he is booked until, and what the job is. It is stated in the email to the agency, in their own words: paid time starts at the booked time or when he scans in, whichever is later.
  • WHY THAT MATTERS: turn up early and the clock does not start rolling, so twenty minutes standing in the yard is not paid for. Turn up late and he is paid from the moment he actually scanned. Every shift after this first one is booked in the TMS Hub, on Driver agencies → Booked agency shifts.
  • AND THE DRIVER IS HANDED OVER AUTOMATICALLY. The moment an induction completes, the TMS Hub is told: his name, his agency, his licence, his mobile and that first shift. He is on the clocking list before he reaches the gate, so when he scans the poster he presses ‘I’m an agency driver’, presses his agency and presses his own name instead of spelling it at 5am. Nothing crosses over for a test induction, and an induction is complete whether or not the hub is reachable.
  • The hand-over needs switching on once: a shared key in both apps, and the recruitment app’s depot id put into the matching company’s Settings in the TMS Hub. Until then everything above works exactly as before.
v1.420.02026-09-22 · 06:35
  • TEST INDUCTIONS CAN GET PAST THE DVLA STEP. Everything else on a practice run can be done without real paperwork — a car licence stands in for the CPC and Digi cards, and their expiry dates are typed by hand — but the DVLA step asked for a real gov.uk licence summary or share code, so a test stopped dead there. That step now offers “Skip the DVLA check and carry on”.
  • It records that the step was SKIPPED. No licence record is created, no points, no insurance clearance is invented, and the skip is refused outright on a real induction — it exists only where the induction is marked as a test.
v1.419.02026-09-22 · 06:17
  • NEW SCREEN — DRIVER AGENCY SUPPLIERS, and a tile you can pin for it. The list of agencies you book drivers from was only reachable by opening Agency Driver Inductions and pressing “Manage this depot’s agency list”, so nobody could put it on their dashboard. It now has a page of its own: press 📌 Choose tiles and tick “Driver agency suppliers”.
  • It is the same list, the same permissions and the same records — add an agency, change its booking email, rename or remove one, and the change shows in both places. A super admin can switch depots at the top; everyone else sees their own depot plus the agencies shared across the group, which stay read-only for them. Anyone who can view applicants can see the list; only those who can edit applicants can change it.
