AutoPlayAuto.com Release Notes - Version 22.8.1 Released 31st August 2022

Calendar Invitation Listing Availability (SPW-6135)

For dealerships that are utilizing the Calendar Invitation for Test Drive bookings, the available time slots will now also be respectful of the primary listings availability. In the Web form creation screen, there is a new check box to check to see if there are any other appointments for 'Booked Test Drive' or 'Visit Outbound' when displaying the available times in the calendar.



Calendar Invitation Time Offset For First Available Appointment (SPW-6135)

A time offset is now able to be set on the web form creation screen that will allow for the minimum amount of hours BEFORE a customer can book in for the first available time slot. This is to ensure that invitations allow for the dealership to be ready for the client and avoid same-day appointments being booked unexpectedly.



Calendar Invitation Time Options Defined by User (SPW-6133)

Users are now able to define specific times that they are available for appointments on any given day of the week.



Daily Performance Activity By Day Analytics Widget

In addition to the existing Daily Activity Performance charts that plot incremental updates, a new version has now been created that will chart the daily totals for each of the KPIs. These have been applied to the AutoPlay default Daily Activity dashboard, and are available to add to custom dashboards under the widget name of Daily Activity Performance By Day title.


Error Message Prompt for Expired Drivers License (SPW-6122)

AutoPlay now has a built-in prompt when it recognises that a customer's Drivers Licence has expired. It will not prevent the information from being saved if the user chooses to do so, but it will prompt them to check.



SSO Users Able to Create/Edit Finance Forms (SPW-6195)

The access and capabilities for SS0 (Single Sign On) users have now been expanded to also incorporate the AutoPlay Finance form available within a lead.



Calendar Invites and Email Campaign URL Masking (SPW-6351)

AutoPlay has now enabled for Calendar Invites and Email Templates to display as if they were hosted by the dealership's website. This application will require additional information and pages created on the dealership's website but allows the customer experience to feel more tightly associated with the dealership itself.



Easier Lead Label Removal Option (SPW-6137)

To make the Lead Labels just a little easier to remove from a lead, AutoPlay has added a quick remove 'X' option on each label. Clicking this will remove it from the lead.


Listings Screen Filter Preset Options (SPW-6158)

In a similar fashion to the lead dashboard, the listings dashboard has now had the ability to save preselected filters enabled to it. These filters when saved are unique to the user that is logged in at the time.



Manual Prospects Uploaded For Multiple Users Simultaneously (SPW-6159)

The .csv upload option for the Prospects Module in AutoPlay has been enhanced so that prospects are able to be added for multiple users. A new column has been added to the upload file to accommodate a users name to be added, and a new selection option from the import screen has been added.



Chargeable / Non Chargeable Reconditioning Expenses

Dealer feedback has suggested that there are particular scenarios or specific charges that are not passed on to the calculated reconditioning costs on appraisals. AutoPlay has enabled for Chargeable and Non Chargeable options to be added to Reconditioning Items so that they are still accounted for in an appraisal assessment.

Automation: Calendar Event Invitations to Sales People (SPW-6300)
