D4H updates d4htechnologies.com

The Organization Calendar is now displayed as both a monthly calendar grid and list format with the ability to go back and forward in time month-by-month.

This extends our recent functionality to use a shared activity as a template.

If you are in a Team which has a parent Organization above it, when creating an activity you are able to choose Display to all teams within your organization. This activity then appears on the Organization Calendar of all teams within your organization.

This is useful when creating activities such as training exercises that are open to other teams within your organization.

The public beta of our D4H Incident Management native mobile app for Apple iOS and Android devices is now open to testers. If you would like to try it out, please fill in your details here.

Our Personnel Costings which are generated as part of an Incident, Exercise, or Event costings are now reportable within the parent Organization. To access this report go to Intelligence > Reports > [Add Custom Report] and select Personnel Costings within your organization.

This report is also available with every Team. To switch on Costings in your team an Account Owner can go to Settings > Costings.

You'll also find a new Grand Total on the Personnel Costings report generated through this method.

Now we've added a new button Use As Template > [Add Event] on the right sidebar of shared activities.

Use this new button to create a duplicate of the shared activity within your own team if you have members attending so you can track attendees and your own paperwork for it.

A draft activity with the following matching information will be started:

• Ref
• Organization Tracking Number
• Location Coordinates
• Street Address
• Start Date/Time
• End Date/Time
• Description
• Tags

(Note: Only the text part of the ref will duplicate, your team account will still auto-generate its own new sequential activity number.)

We've heard feedback that sometimes you can't delete Kind, Supplier, Manufacturer, or Model of equipment as they have retired items within them.

We've now added a retired item count to those pages (which will only show if you have retired items). To see it, got to any list view of equipment for which you have retired items within.

This clicks through to our new Retired Equipment view with charts to show you Retirement Reasons for the Kind, Supplier, Manufacturer, or Model, and average lifespan. Why is this important? You'll be able to make better purchasing decisions because it lets you see which equipment has the longest life and why you're retiring it.

We've added a signature block to inventory print-outs. This makes it easier to audit a record trail of who undertook a physical inventory when using paper.

Print inventory PDF's from any Category, Kind, or Location.

This widget will pop-up to tell you about new updates, releases, features, and changes. You can visit it anytime at updates.d4htechnologies.com

We've added a printable PDF export of your on-call calendar. This will show you a monthly view with all duty periods listed, both on-call and off-call.

We also recently enabled automatic detection of Letter or A4 paper size so you no longer have to manually select it.

You are now able to print a PDF of each Equipment Checklist you create to make deployment packing easier.

It’s now possible to add equipment retirement reasons within [Team Settings]. Add anything you’d like to track. If your team is part of an organization then those settings are in the parent organization rather than your team. This means that all teams within the organization are reporting using common terminology which can be compared across the region.
