Interface Update & Other Changes

Important Notice: If you are getting a "Page Not Found" error when opening TrakIT, please delete any existing bookmarks and open TrakIT directly via the url. This is due to some internal page structure changes.

For any assistance, contact TrakIT Support.
A new version of TrakIT has been released with the following changes:


Interface Update

Over the past few weeks, we have been working on streamlining TrakIT internally and enhancing the user interface to make it cleaner and simpler. The first phase of this transition is complete and we have made some changes to the way tables are displayed and the way users interact with tables. The majority of the change in internal and invisible. However, this has resulted in an average of 30% - 50% lighter pages (which translates directly to faster performance).

The standard Edit and Delete buttons (along with any other) on each row have been moved to a popup that opens when you hover over the menu icon.

Shown below is an example of the User Management page and the popup menu:


The same has been applied to all the other tables. The page size of a table has been moved to the footer.

Updates have been made to some pages only; the remaining ones will be updated in the next phase.

If you experience any issues with the new interface, clear your browser cache, close all windows of your browser and then try again. If that doesn't help, please let us know.


Demurrage Notifications

As per your request, Demurrage Notification emails will now have an Excel Attachment instead of the content being included in the email.


Advanced Report Filters

A few more filters have been added to the Advanced Report 'WO Created' filter.


These filters will filter on the WO Created date on "rolling" basis from the current date.


Internet Explorer 7.0

Over the next few months, we will be dropping support for Internet Explorer 7.0 due to the amount of time it takes our developers to ensure that the application looks and runs fine in IE 7.0.

IE 7 users will now see a small exclamation icon on the top left of the browser window as a notice to upgrade. If you are using IE 8 and still seeing the icon, check your Compatibility View settings and make sure you are not using TrakIT in Compatibility mode (Turning on compatibility mode makes IE 8 behave just like IE 7).

For those of you using IE 7, please contact your local IT support to upgrade to IE 8 or later and make sure Compatibility Mode is turned off.


For any questions or concerns, please contact TrakIT Support.
