Recent Releases
Texting improvements for unassigned assets
24-hour shift confirmation and weekly shift texts now send to drivers on routes even when the route doesn't have an assigned asset.
Contract Breakdown Table
We added a new Breakdown view where you can see your SO1 and SO2 routes broken down by contract.
Audit Panel fix
We fixed a bug where the Audit Panel incorrectly flagged drivers for not accepting routes that were Relay Rejected.
Shift Patterns
SO2 contracts can now be configured with a 2-on-2-off shift pattern, in addition to the existing 4-on-4-off pattern. Dynamic Scheduler assigns the contract's two drivers automatically according to the selected rotation. See the Shift Patterns article for setup.
Relay Integration sync errors
We improved Relay Integration so that when a sync fails, you'll now see detailed error messaging explaining why.
GeoTab integration fix
We fixed the GeoTab integration so it properly pulls in certified route times.
More accurate 4-on-4-off scheduling
We improved the 4-on-4-off scheduling algorithm to more accurately follow the 4-on-4-off pattern when additional routes deviate from it.
Relay Integration
Copilot can now sync driver assignments on your routes directly to Amazon Relay, so you no longer have to manually select them there. See the Relay Integration article to get set up.
GeoTab HOS Integration
Copilot can now automatically pull actual start and end times for historic routes from GeoTab, with no manual entry required. See the GeoTab HOS Integration article for setup.
Texting functionality improvements
Weekly shift reminder and 24-hour shift confirmation texts now send to drivers even when a route has an invalidated tractor assignment.
More powerful Dynamic Scheduler
We updated the Dynamic Scheduler algorithm to be more powerful and output the most optimal schedule possible. As a result, scheduling can take slightly longer, though it shouldn't take more than a few minutes.
Fix on Maintenance Tracker
The inability to edit time values of Maintenance Routes in the Maintenance Tracker on tablet devices have been resolved.
Audit Panel now tracks Potentially Rejected Routes
The Audit Panel now includes alerts for routes that are in the 'Potentially Rejected' state, to help teams focus on routes that are at risk of rejection.
Save a new route as a draft
Copilot automatically saves a draft when you close the Add Route drawer before completing a route.
When you reopen the Add Route drawer, your most recently saved draft will be loaded automatically.
Real time line in Breakdown pages
We've added a line that marks the current date and time so you can easily distinguish routes that have passed, are in transit, or are upcoming.
New Maintenance Tracker
We now have Maintenance Tracker, a new page that allows you to manage and view all Maintenance Blocks for your assets.
Please use this tab to add new Maintenance Blocks and view all existing ones.
Watch a video for a brief walkthrough.
New Route Status: Cancelled by Amazon
You can now mark a route as “Cancelled by Amazon.” Copilot will treat the route as a non-active block but still display it in the Driver and Asset breakdown tables for visibility.
Bug fixing on Incremental Routes
We resolved a bug that limited which drivers could be assigned to Incremental Routes. Now all your drivers — regardless of their route type preferences — can be assigned to an Incremental Route.
