  • Navigation Bar Update - To better represent the lifecycle of a job, the navigation bar at the top of the page has gotten some small adjustments. The ISF section has been moved under Shipments to better tie to the international files. For those with the Orders solution, Orders will now display first after the Dashboard.

Domestic Trucking

  • Demo functionality for Trucking Visibility - Incorporate trucking visibility into your sales demos and drive more trucking business and cross-selling. Reach out to your Customer Success Manager to configure demo mode for trucking visibility.

  • Trucking PRO # Support - We’ve added PRO # to the trucking experience. This gives clients an important reference number they may want as they track and manage their job. This is an optional column (off by default) in the Trucking Explorer and included under the Load Details on the Trucking Details page.

  • [Tai] Document Expansion - We now support Lumper Receipts, Return Receipts, and Invoices for Tai files (in addition to Bill of Lading and Proof of Delivery which were already supported). This allows clients to self serve other valuable documents for trucking jobs. Due to Tai limitations, if a trucking file has more than one doc for a given doc type, we will show the most recent document based on document ID.

Warehousing

  • Demo functionality for Warehouse Management - Incorporate warehouse management into your sales demos and drive more warehousing business. Guide prospects through overviews of inventory, inbound receipts, outbound orders, and even show them how they can submit warehouse orders directly from Logixboard.

Bookings

This provides a richer experience to clients who want more planning details as the booking is worked on. We also now link to the related shipment view for all booking files once the booking is converted to a shipment in CW1.
    Find more information on the new fields in the CargoWise One Bookings Mapping Guide.

  • Refreshed Bookings Experience - The bookings experience has gotten a refresh to be more consistent with the shipment experience. You can now find a similar layout as well as a route map for every booking.
    In addition to these changes, we’ve simplified to the page and moved the bookings options functionality to the menu button. This simplifies the experience for those looking to provide bookings visibility without incorporating options into your workflows.

  • CSV Export for Trade Lane by Metric: In Analytics, we’ve added the ability to export a CSV for the Trade Lane by Metric table, allowing users to export data for use in downstream processes.

  • Expanded Organization Contact Info: We are now surfacing email and phone contact information for Importers and Suppliers.


August 2022

  • US Partner Government Agencies (PGA) Customs Visibility: We are now able to collect line-item PGA status on a shipment and combine that with CBP data to provide US importers with the most comprehensive customs status.

  • eDoc Uploads for Brokerage files: Logixboard now supports eDoc uploads for brokerage files (B-files).

  • PO Number in Invoice Explorer: The PO number is shown under "ORDER NUMBERS / OWNER'S REFERENCE" field on the PDF invoice. The value can contain multiple PO numbers. When there are multiple PO numbers associated with the same invoice, we now allow the user to search for such invoice with any of these PO numbers.

  • Display Preview of PDF Invoice: Users can now preview the PDF of a given invoice, making it faster for them to see invoice details without requiring a full download.

  • Consolidated S- and B-File Parties: For users with access to both S- and B-files, it was previously challenging to sort and filter via parties in Shipment Explorer because of how we handled Shippers/Suppliers and Consignees/Importers. We’ve combined those four parties into two columns to allow pools of S- and B-files to be better sorted and filtered together, reducing friction and increasing discoverability.

  • Orders Explorer Table Improvement: The Orders explorer now includes the same features as other tables within Logixboard, allowing users to drag-and-drop column layouts, use our standard column sort and filter functions, and more. This provides a more consistent explorer experience overall.

  • eDocs for Brokerage: We now support uploading eDocs on Brokerage files (i.e., standalone B-files) via Logixboard.

  • Brokerage files in Analytics: Analytics now includes the ability to filter by job type and view Shipment and/or Brokerage files.

  • Order IDs on Containers: To better plan unload and post-transit operations, your customers need to know which of their orders are packed into what containers. We’re now providing the list of specific Order IDs packed into each container when you populate this within the CargoWise Order Planning workflow.


July 2022

  • Final Delivery for B-Files: We’re now surfacing Final Delivery address for B-files.

  • Orders linked to B-Files: We now link Orders to B-files. This provides you with a fuller picture of the lifecycle of the b-file, so that you can see the order details as well as the brokerage details all in one place.

  • Live Vessel Tracking Expansion: We’ve expanded the fleet of vessels covered by our MarineTraffic integration by nearly 600 vessels, allowing us to offer Live Vessel Tracking for a greater number of shipments.

  • Transit Time Reporting in Analytics: We’ve updated the Trade Lane by Metric card in Analytics to include the Average Transit Time and Average Delay Time, giving you and your customers a summary view of how each lane performs over time.

  • Mode Icons: We had previously used several types of Mode icons across Logixboard. We’ve now updated all icons to a single set of icons for consistency.

  • Dashboard:

    • The default dates for the inbox has changed from This Week to Last 7 Days since this week included future dates that don't apply to the inbox.

    • Shipments listed next to the Estimated Arrivals calendar are now clickable. Previously, just the arrow next to the shipment listing was clickable. This makes their behavior consistent with other parts of our platform.

  • Announcement Banner: We are now able to communicate new releases or other announcements with a banner at the top of the Logixboard page. The banner will remain visible until the user dismisses the announcement or if they click the provided link.

  • Order Details Update: Added the Invoice Date, Confirmation Date, and Incoterm fields to Order Details to provide shippers with additional pre-transit information.


June 2022

  • Activity Log Update: Released an update to the Shipment Details Activity by introducing new icons to differentiate events by mode, helping users to quickly and easily categorize events and understand the current state and historical flow of their shipment.

  • ISF Table Update: Completely revamped ISF table, built on our new core table component. This is the first in a series of table updates to bring more consistency to our application, and will allow users to interact with the ISF table in much the same way as Shipment Explorer - with custom column layouts, drag-and-drop control, and improved performance.

  • New Container Events: We are now collecting and displaying the CFS Storage Start and CFS Available container dates from CargoWise for those who are populating this data. This gives your customers a fuller view into status of containers at mid-transit freight stations after the containers have left the port of discharge.

  • New eDoc Types: We've added roughly 20 new eDoc types to our document upload list in response to recent CargoWise updates.

  • Additional B-File Events: We are now capturing ARV and DEP events from B-files, allowing us to provide a fuller picture of status and history for when you are entering this data for your Brokerage customers.

  • Various UI Updates: Edited buttons, text, and colors across the application to ensure our users have a truly best-in-class experience.

  • New password requirements: Previously, passwords were only required to be 8 characters in length. In an effort to better protect your accounts and data, we are now requiring that all newly created or updated passwords have the following:

    • At least 1 numeric character

    • At least 1 special character

    • At least 1 upper case character

    • At least 1 lower case character

    • At least 8 characters in length

  • View As: View As allows a single authorized user account, one email per login, to switch between different user types while using the same set of credentials, thereby removing the need to maintain multiple ‘fake’ emails. This allows tenant users to view Logixboard as another user type without having to log out and log in with a different email address.
