Inspections


  • In Synovia, for inspection and work order reports that include the driver who performed the inspection in the results, split the Driver column into two new columns, Inspector First Name and Inspector Last Name.
  • In Synovia, added Export as PDF and Export as Excel buttons to the top right of the Inspection Results screen.
  • On Synovia’s parameters screen for the Vehicle Inspection reports, set the Show All Users and Employees toggle to selected by default.
  • In Synovia, fixed selection issues with the Inspection Results screen’s Vehicles filter, including not keeping tree selections after users viewed an inspection’s details and erroneously showing all vehicles selected when only certain ones were chosen.
  • In Synovia, fixed user interface issues with the Work Orders screen, such as misaligned icons for the calendar pickers in the Date Fixed column in the Edit Work Order pane.


Student Ridership


  • On the Fleet Tracking screen, added a new column that users can add to the results grid, Student Count on Board, which will show how many students are currently on the bus. Note that this will be turned off by default; to enable it, click Select Columns at the top right of the screen and use the Show Columns feature. Also, the student scan refresh rate will not be the same as it is for vehicles. (Vehicle tracking data is refreshed every five seconds, and student scan data every minute.)
  • On the Fleet Tracking screen, fixed an issue with the grid right-click option Watch Live on New Tab, which would double the reported number of students when users right-clicked and selected Students Onboard.


Time and Attendance (in the Synovia Interface)


  • Added the Time Sheet report (previously available only in legacy TAA) to Synovia TAA. This report provides a formatted time sheet that allows up to four shifts per day per employee and includes signature lines.
  • Added the Audit Trail report (previously available only in legacy TAA) to Synovia TAA. This report provides information about actions taken within the TAA database (such as editing a time card), including which users performed them.
  • Improved the Rounding Policies area of the Rounding tab of TAA System Settings with the following changes:
    • Split it into two sections – Add Rounding Policies, in which users can create new policies, and Rounding Policies, which will list policies that are currently in place.
    • Made the Add Rounding Policies area collapsible (and collapsed by default).
    • Added a Cancel button to the Add Rounding Policies section.
  • For manually added/edited shifts, on the Edit Time Card screen, changed the date format in the Manual Edit column of the Shifts History area to be MM/DD/YYYY (instead of DD/MM/YYYY).
  • Made user interface changes to the Absences screen, including fixing spacing and the direction of the Add Absence expansion arrow.
