[QUOTE="pretzel_man, post: 602615, member: 927"] First, there is no work measurement change. But, I find this thread pretty amazing..... While I absolutely agree that there is no excuse for a center just installing the upgrade and not telling drivers, I'm amazed by the negative comments about this. Its telling that so many of the negative comments are from people that have not even seen the upgrade. (Again, there is no excuse for this not being properly communicated to the drivers) Corporate told us about these changes a while ago. This software was intended to help with many of the things people on this board complained about. Now that corporate is addressing the items, people seem to find a need to complain about that too. Kind of like dealing with my ex. Complain if nothing is done, complain if something is done. I'm sure that like all software there will be bugs, but here are some of the nice features in this DIAD / ODSe upgrade: - A task list helps guide drivers (especially new ones) into doing all the things they need to remember today. - A DVIR helps ensure we are compliant with regulations - If a missort is found in a car, it tells the center automatically, and if you have EDD, takes it out of the other drivers manifest so he/she doesn't go looking for it. The same happens if a package was found left in the building. - Missorts, late air, etc can be moved from one drivers DIAD to another to help with synchronizing information and setting up meet points. - Intercepts are more nicely integrated. - Pickups can be adjusted by the center to help balance over 9.5's while ensuring we don't miss pickups. - Pickups are better integrated into the manifest - This is also the base for future new services. These things all seem like good things. P-Man [/QUOTE]
