Version 18.3 Sprint Release Notes: What’s new at AutoPlay?

Version 18.3 is now out and includes a number of improvements to existing AutoPlay features.

Australian dealerships are now able to run vehicle lookups through MotorWeb within the Appraisal screen in the AutoPlay Sales Pipeline.  Vehicle look ups cost $0.64AUD + GST for each successful lookup, which populates some vehicle fields on the Appraisal Form.  To find out more about this function you can view the How To Guide HERE.  To sign up for this function please email support@autoplay.co.nz

• Fixed a bug with accessing reporting, hitting refresh and refining your report from within the iPad App.
• We’ve added an option to restrict the Lead Dashboard to show only the ‘First 100’ leads returned by the filters.  If your experiencing slow performance this option will help speed up the Dashboard for you.  Contact support@autoplay.co.nz to enable this role.
• Added the VIN and Chassis fields to the Listing screen for the Motor Home/Caravan Listing Type.
• Changed references to ‘Toyota Certified Imports’ to ‘Toyota Certified’.
• Added a new Assistance Request Status for ATECO called ‘Conditional’.
• Fixed a bug in the Vehicle Appraisal Dashboard where the date range filter was not picking up the right records within the selected date range under certain circumstances.
• When a lead is ‘Closed – Won’ AutoPlay will now automatically mark the lead as ‘Sold’ as well – making it easier to understand in reporting.
• Tidied up error messages displayed when the device has no internet connection.
• The iOS Apps will now allow users to edit Accessories on a Write Up Form, or Reconditioning Items on an Appraisal Form after the initial form has been created (Note – this brings it into line with the current Desktop application).
• On the iPhone app it is now possible to edit the Notes field within the Test Drive or Loan Car Forms.
• Assorted improvements to In-Market Leads functionality.  View a full breakdown of this function HERE;
  • After selecting ‘Ignore’ on a matching In-Market Lead, the app no longer automatically closes the window displaying all your possible matches.
  • In-Market Leads – we can now stop this function from running on selected yards by removing the yards from the ‘In Market Leads’ role settings.
  • Changes to “Brochureware” yard listings no longer appear in the In-Market Leads dashboard.  Leads with “brochureware” listings will still be matched against new listings/price decreases if the criteria matches.
  • When an In-Market Lead is triggered by a Price Decrease, the previous price will now be displayed on the matching In-Market Leads record.
  • Within the in-Market Lead matching screen the lead Yard is now displayed.
  • When an In-Market Lead is triggered by a Price Decrease, there is now a separate option to ‘Schedule Follow Up’ on leads with this exact vehicle against them.
  • After adding a New Listing as the Primary or Secondary Listing on a matching In-Market Lead, a calendar event is automatically created for today +24 hours so users will know to follow up with the customer about the new listing.
    
  • After actioning a matching In-Market Lead by adding the listing or scheduling follow up, the user will be automatically taken to the relevant Lead within the Dashboard – instead of having to manually search for the lead they were just working on.
    
  • Added a new filter on the In-Market Leads dashboard to restrict the visible leads via Interest (Hot, Warm and Cold)
    
  • Made considerable improvements to the speed that matching In-Market Leads are displayed – particularly on Desktop.
