Note: The numbering system for the releases is as follows:

• The first number is changed when the overall scope and intent of the program is significantly changed.
• The second number is changed when there is a major database change or when a major function is modified and/or added.
• The third number is changed for corrections and minor changes that may or may not require a minor change to the database.
  
  
• If a version is marked with a 'v' then it is database compatible with the previous versions down to and including the most recent previous upgrade that does not have a 'v'. Think of the small 'v' and meaning minor version or as pointing down to those previous versions with which it is compatible. for example, If the Master is running 4.17.34, then a Satellite running 4.17.35v will be able to connect. Similarly, a 4.17.34 Satellite can connect to a 4.17.35v Master. in other words, The 'v' means that there was no database change and that the release is compatible with the previous version(s).
  This capability is only to simplify the timing of upgrades. it is still desireable to have all your users running the same (The latest) version.
  
  
• If a version number is skipped, that indicates that it was an internal development release, all changes for internal releases will be noted in the next version that is publicly released.

• Added the ability to specify volume and maximum density to each Service Type (either as part of your import data or manually edited).

• From the terminal window you can now query (scan for) Bluetooth devices. You can then select a device to connect to and/or copy the devices address to the clipboard (to be pasted into the communications setting for a Truck).
• You can now optionally download each Route Stop number of time. So if a stop has a quantity of 3 it will appear 3 times in the Route. See menu Tools : Advanced Settings : Quantity adjust Route download.

• Additional fields can now be used in LoadData filters. New fields include Phone, Address, City, State, Zip, and Service ID.

• Added some new capability to data import to meet a specific user's need.
• Corrected a minor unreported bug related to saving/restoring the state of print report dialogs.

• Modified the algorithm used to automatically generate loadnames during data import to improve performance. In cases were there were large numbers of loadnames for a single Customer, it could be very slow. In this case speed was increased by a factor of 40. Users with more typical data sets will see varying levels of improvement from 40 times to nothing.
• With some import data sets, the count of items being imported on the progress base was two times the actual number. This was cosmetic only, the import was correct and it stopped when the progress bars showed it as half done.
• Corrected a bug where the loadname base was lost when a Customer of type "has Sites" was manually added.

• Improved data import to allow some the fields to be optionally specified, it had been that they were either not imported or had to be provided for every record. The fields are Service Type, Frequency, Region, Type, and Zone.

• Upgrades will not be attempted for non-administrator Windows logins.
• Any negative weight values from the meter will be displayed and exported as zero.

• Vista is now a supported operating system. See installation tutorial for details.
• The license now resides in a sub-folder of the data folder named "License".
• It you applied an unnamed filter, the pervious filter name was shown. This has been corrected.
• You are no longer permitted to export "system format" data to a spreadsheet.
• After configuring an installation to be a satellite, it was possible that upon restart it would automatically re-login as the last user rather then show the new Masters users. This has been eliminated.
• All map view will now show the address under the mouse pointer (when it is not set to perform another function such as zoom) whenever it is stopped at one location for a second.
• In a system with satellites, resetting the command "tools : restore default settings" would clear settings for other users too. Bug fixed.

• The current filter label in the LoadData and GPS views is now made more noticeable to avoid confusion about what data is being shown.
• There is a new data import option to inhibit the overwrite of existing lat-lon values.
• If you hit the F6 key (toggle show/hide hidden items) on a view that did not have hide as an option, it would crash. This has been fixed.
• Data could be deleted from the event and audit views by hitting the delete key, this is no longer possible.
• Fixed a bug that would cause a crash when editing filters that had descending order sorts applied.

• Some debug code was left in 4.19.30. When ever GeoFencing is attempted, you will hear a 'beep'. It has been removed. Bad programmer, no cupcakes for you.

• Assigning lat-lon from LoadData to Services would sometimes fail for each record that generated an overwrite permission prompt. This has been corrected.
• You can now set the LFM to automatically assign the lat-lon from collected data records to their assigned Services. This will happen only if the Service does not already have a lat-lon assigned. See menu Tools : Advanced Settings : GeoFence Settings.
• Deleting all records showing (as controlled by the current filter) in the LoadData and GPS views is now much faster. So to delete a large number of records fast, create and apply a filter selecting those records that you want to delete, select all records, and delete.
• There is a new "right click" menu item available in the LoadData and GPS views to select all records and delete them in a single step.
• If you delete more than 100 records in any view and the speed up described in the previous items does not apply, a progress bar is shown as the data deletes.
• Bluetooth communications has been improved. Lots of little issues have been corrected and improved.
• It was possible that when assigning lat-lon from an address that you were prompted asking permission to overwrite an existing lat-lon when none actually existed. This has been resolved.
• If you deleted GPS data when a map was open, the map was not being updated correctly. Now the map will be automatically closed before any GPS data can be deleted.
• In some cases, the completion status of a satellite initiated data import was being truncated. This has been corrected.

• Non-LoadData reports have been fixed again, the 4.19.28 fix was incomplete.
• Demo mode is now disallowed when you are using an SQL database. SQL users can run a demo database by either temporarily switching back to a Jet database or by doing a temporary install on another computer.

• A memory leak when writing database information has been fixed. Note: A "memory leak" means that the amount of RAM used by the program keeps growing until it first slows down your computer and eventually causes it to fail. Depending on your computer and usage patterns this would take days or weeks. Stopping and restarting the previous versions of the Loadman Fleet Manager with this bug frees the memory being "leaked". The act of backing up the database (either automatic or manual backup; which you should be doing!) causes a restart and thus makes the bug less serious. Normally development tools will notify us of a leak so that it can be fixed before it is released, but this leak involved the database access layer and was not revealed by our tools.
• A bug causing a rare and intermittent crash during data import has been corrected.
• Non-LoadData reports that select one or more sort key now preview and print correctly.

• Route downloads can now be scheduled for a future time. To enable this activate menu Tools : Advanced Settings : Delayed Download.

• Corrected an unlikely login bug that can occur when some users have passwords and some don't.

• Data import, data export and Route download are now capable of being carried out over a TCP connection using XML.
• Numeric data in reports can now be averaged. This works for both detail and summary views.
• Corrected a bug where a satellite would crash if it had the user view open while the master added or delete a user.

• Correct crash bug after database backup for SQL Server users (the backup was being performed correctly)
• TCP Relay connection status was sometimes reporting false success, corrected now.

• Correct a bug where data view grids sometimes temporarily showing wrong data.

• Minor improvements to data import progress reporting.
• Improved the automatic generation of loadnames during data import.
• Fix (or at least mimimized) a rare fatal error during data import.

• The filter user interface has been simplified and made more capable. Many filters that previously required manual editing can now be directly created with the user interface. Some new capabilities were added (eg: filter on Lat-Lon) that were not even possible with manual filters before. This upgrade will cause the LoadData filter and column order for all views will be reset to their default values.
• Filters have been added to the GPS view.
• Several new capabilities have been added to data import to more smoothly support a wider range of data sources.
• Correct the restoration of column order and the arrow label to indicate the primary sort column.
• Correct the problem with Route Download Name experienced by some upgrades to 4.19.20.

• Data items that take part in relationships can now be hidden from view. For example, in the past, if a Truck is removed from you fleet it could not be deleted from the database until all references (such as load records) were removed. Hiding allows the Truck to be out of the way while still preserving the database relationship.
• When editing data on a map, a cancel option is now available.
• Command line login is now supported with the options /U username and /P password.
• Added "map" toolbar buttons to views that support maps.

• Services can now be assigned to Regions while in the Region layout map.
• All map views/dialogs will indicate what Region the mouse pointer is over.
• Routes can now be created, edited, or reordered on a map. This allows you to see the Route as you manipulate it.
• On any map, you can now click along an arbitrary path and get a report of the accumulated distance.
• Corrected a possible condition where the database was getting damaged sometimes when a Customer was renamed. This release also corrects any past damage caused by this bug.
• A satellite computer can now initiate a data import even if the Master has been left in a busy state.
• Regions and Routes can be viewed on any map.

• Data import can now be initiated from a satellite computer.
• A Message Center has been added that allows users on different computers to post messages to each other. This facility is also used for system created status information. The message center can also be started when the system is busy and showing a progress bar.
• Regions can now be created graphically on a map and Service points assigned to those Regions based on their Lat-Lon.

• All dialogs containing maps can now be resized allowing you to expand the map image.
• Fixed a bug where edits of SQL for filters or Route generation were being lost.
• Corrected a bug that made painting of the background image sluggish in some cases.

• All collected LoadData and GPS data is journaled to the backup directory in it's raw format. In the event of a database failure that cannot be repaired, you can restore an old database and replay the journal to rebuild the database without loss of collected data.
• When collected data is being process and falls behind a bit, the LoadData and GPS data displays will be updated as the data arrives instead of waiting until the processing has caught up.
• A status line indicator has been added to show the current backlog of processing collected LoadData and GPS data. This will show the progress in processing a journal and should otherwise jump up as data arrives a quickly return to zero.
• There is now a one button backup command. This is ideal for a quick and easy backup after doing any significant editing or importing.
• If was possible to cause a crash by requesting a print preview when no reports existed, this has been corrected.

• New map software and data.
• Added Service Id to Route Stop view.
• Disallow access to report printing or design when the view is empty.
• Improved the speed of data import on the step where the old Routes are deleted.
• Stop number has been removed from the LoadData view. Any filters containing this item will be deleted and must be reentered.
• The stop order can now be taken from a field in the import data, previously data was required to be presented already sorted by stop order.
• Import data that is presented as floating point values but are needed as integers can now be converted during the import process.

• When realtime export is disabled there is no longer an error reported if the connection to the export database fails.
• It was possible that LoadData Audit records were not being all shown in the LoadData Audit view. The data was all correct, just hidden. This has been corrected.
• Sorting one Route could cause corruption in the order of other Routes. This has been corrected.
• Clarified software vs database version numbers in the about box (and added information to identify test versions).
• Improved the information provided in the popups on maps.

• Corrected redraw (F5) of the LoadData view changing the filter from All Records to Todays Data.

• Route download commands to Trucks using TCP, TCP Relay, RF LAN, and Bluetooth may now originate from satellite users (if the account has sufficient permissions).
• Corrected the possible lack of satellite updates when Truck and/or Route status information changed.

• Two more 'extra' data fields are now supported (used for custom loadman meter applications).
• The terminal window handling of communications error and shutdown has been improved.
• The Problem '--none--' and the Product '--unknown--' are no longer allowed to be deactivated.
• LoadData records added by a user are now added to the realtime LoadData export table.
• Corrected some cases where the map view slider and status was incorrect.

• Comm status no longer shows successes, this allow a better look at problems.
• Fixed possible crash when closing the event log
• Improved the handling on regional settings for display and input to date-time
• Prevented a way of deleting the master user.
• Reports and export layouts would fail if a comma was used in a column header title. Commas are now changed to periods. If you really need a comma in a header, it is possible to correct this to allow commas.

• Both maps and raw GPS data may now be viewed at the same time.
• The Pickup Time and Truck are no longer editable in the LoadData.
• The date range in LoadData filters will now take a negative integer to mean 'days ago'. So a range of -1 to 0 is today and -2 to -1 is yesterday. Default filters for today and yesterday have been added.
• The F5 key will redraw data views. For LoadData it will also reapply the filter. So if you go home while displaying data with the today's data filter and return in the morning and hit F5 it will show the new days data.
• Filters using LIKE will now work with either '*' or '%' as a wild card character.
• Fixed filtering of LoadData by Problem or Product.
• Fixed problem with adding the first Route Stop into an empty table.
• Fixed Route download for RfLan.
• Fixed a bug that could cause a crash if you restart during very busy data collection.

• The arrow on the data view headers to show the current sort column is now correct when the sort column is changed other than by clicking the header.
• Separate software version from database version.
• Allow the realtime export table to be put into the main database.
• Correct handling of Quantity, Frequency, Latitude, and Longitude during the import of Customer data. This was a cosmetic problem for only some users.
• Allow restart to the same user without asking for a new password. This allows restart after automatic backup without operator intervention. Steps were taken to prevent this from being a security hole.
• Simplify restart after a fatal error.
• Add a Service id column to the LoadData data view.

• This is a major database connectivity upgrade. You can now choose to use either Microsoft SQL Server 2005 or Microsoft Jet 4.0 (the current Microsoft Access database). Previously the database was limited to just the Microsoft Jet 3.51 (the Microsoft Access 97 database).
• The online help will guide you in deciding which database is right for you. If you choose Jet 4.0 the installation is automatic when you install or upgrade to version 4.19.xx. If you choose the SQL Server 2005, the online help will assist you with installation and setup of the freely available version of SQL Server 2005 (SQL Server 2005 Express Edition). Connection to one of the commercial versions of SQL Server 2005 is also possible.
• Satellite users can now be configured to have write permission to the Loadman Fleet Manager database. That is data can be added, edited, and deleted by Satellite as well as Master users.
• The user configuration view (menu tools : users) can be used set up each user to have their own unique permissions to view and modify the database. You can select one of five predefined permission levels or you can customize permissions to meet each users specific needs.
• All LoadData Audit Events can now be view together in one view in addition to the previous ability to just view audits on a per load basis.
• LoadData can now be exported in real time to a Jet 4.0 or SQL Server 2005 database. Like other exports it can be customized to your specific needs.

• All collected LoadData and GPS data is journaled to the backup directory in it's raw format. In the event of a database failure that cannot be repaired, you can restore an old database and replay the journal to rebuild the database without loss of collected data.
• When collected data is being process and falls behind a bit, the LoadData and GPS data displays will be updated as the data arrives instead of waiting until the processing has caught up.
• A status line indicator has been added to show the current backlog of processing collected LoadData and GPS data. This will show the progress in processing a journal and should otherwise jump up as data arrives a quickly return to zero.
• There is now a one button backup command. This is ideal for a quick and easy backup after doing any significant editing or importing.
• If was possible to cause a crash by requesting a print preview when no reports existed, this has been corrected.

• Note: This version has no changes that impact Master installations, that is, the changes impact satellite users and users launched via the Loadman Enterprise Manager (LEM). For LEM users the upgrade is automatic (provided the Master installation is running Loadman Fleet Manager 4.17.34 or newer).
• When launched by LEM, the Loadman Fleet Manager Maintenance Tools no longer offer running as a demo nor changing the Master/Satellite setting.
• The following items have been disabled from being changed by satellite users. The settings are retrieved from the Master database.

  • Units for speed (miles vs kilometers).

• Corrected a bug whereas map tag popups could be blank (depended on data values).
• Improved the information provided in the popups on maps.
• Clarified software vs database version numbers in the about box.

• Support extended characters in all alphanumeric data and translate them for use in loadnames.

• Fix viewing of Route version number.

• After manually performing a GeoFence operation on LoadData, the current LoadData record (or the first if more than one are selected) is restore after the operation is complete.
• A data import bug has been corrected. The bug caused an improper setting of the inherit flag for Services in some cases.

• The term "Auto Detect" has been replaced by "GeoFencing". This mean to use the GPS coordinates to determine the Customer account associated with a load (pickup).
• A new field is available when printing Route list headers/footers to include the barcode to request GeoFencing.

• A TCP "Listen" is no longer performed unless required. This will simplify security (firewall, routers, etc) for some users.
• An improvement has been made in recovering from TCP Relay timeouts.
• Reports that are summarized by a field can now be merged (that is not have each report started on a new page) and will have subtotals and a grand total if there are any fields being totaled in the report.
• The portrait/landscape selection for reports is now radio buttons, this is a more intuitive interface.
• Numeric fields in reports are now right aligned by default (when added to a new or existing report, this does not change existing reports).
• Some field attributes were allowed on report column headers that made no sense (such as total or percentage), the meaningless options are now disabled (grayed) for these items.
• The date range field in a report header has been fixed for the case where it is derived from a filter.
• In the report header design view, images that do not have a valid image file associated with them can now be selected, dragged, and right-clicked.
• In the report header design view, images that do not have a valid image file associated with them now have an accurate error flag.
• In the report header design view for Problems, Products, and Route Stops reports; the Record/Print/Zero field now has a properly sized selection rectangle.
• In the report header design view, the interface has been simplified. Properties are now only set by right clicking either the item in the design pane or the selection grid.
• Numerous small report issues have been corrected.
• When directly editing SQL, the operator "NOT LIKE" is now supported.
• Fix a crash bug caused by using the license file to remove a few special data fields.
• The trace bits settings will now timeout and reset. This helps with the issue them being left on accidentally which causes performance degradation and wasted disk space.
• It was possible to create a process that would only generate an error message and be difficult to terminate. This happened when certain errors were made while configuring the system for multi-user mode. This has been corrected.
• Corrected a bug in the creation of suggested export names whereas the new name would contain the folder name of the previous export and the new path would be truncated by one level.
