Skedulo web app release notes v23.8.0 (2.20.2023)

Our new documentation platform is now live at docs.skedulo.com. You can now find our User guides (formerly the Knowledge Base) and Developer guides all in one place.

Our new unified documentation platform features improved design, a more intuitive task-based information architecture, and enhanced search functionality that searches across our user and developer guides. The new platform will help us maintain and scale our documentation more efficiently, so keep checking for more updates coming soon. 

For customers who have bookmarked their preferred support articles, we have added redirects to help ensure that bookmarks will navigate to the right place in the new documentation.

Do you have any documentation feedback or suggestions? Let us know!

Optimization recipes are now available to all existing beta Route Optimization customers. 

You can configure recipes under Settings > Scheduling > Optimization recipes.

List filters can now query relative to the current logged in user. Information on the user can be referenced by using the $CurrentUser token. For example, in the advanced query builder, the following is now possible:

• LastModifiedById: $CurrentUser.UID - only show items that were last modified by the current user

• RegionId: $CurrentUser.Resource.PrimaryRegionId - only show items that are in the same region as the current user

• Category: $CurrentUser.Resource.Category - only show items that have the same category (e.g. Electrician) as the current user

• EmploymentType: $CurrentUser.Resource.EmploymentType - only show items that have the same employment type (e.g. Electrician) as the current user

$CurrentUser is not limited to the advanced query builder. If the filter permits filtering of free text (e.g. is it not a pick-list, or search box) it is also possible to use $CurrentUser. For example, the following filter on the Users list would find all Users that share your surname:
