Depots have traditionally represented various physical points such as warehouses, ports, terminals, and airports, where consignments are picked up or delivered. To better reflect the diverse range of these physical points, we are renaming Depots to Locations. This change is purely terminological, with no impact on functionality. You can still assign GPS coordinates for precise locations if needed.
In line with this update, the Depot Type master data field will be renamed to Geo Data. This field will now accommodate any type of geographical location when added to the workflow data. You can select this Geo Data type using the drop-down menu present when editing the field. Additionally, the Custom Filter field remains available for TrakIT Support to further refine selections.
The previous Location field, which allowed place lookups using Google, will now be renamed to Google Places.
GPS Location of Assets and Users is now renamed to Position.
We apologize for any inconvenience this change may cause, but we believe it better aligns with the evolving data requirements in TrakIT.
Here is a summary of the renamed fields:
| Old Field | New Field |
| Depot | Location |
| Geographical Location | Geo Data |
| Location | Google Place |
| Asset/User GPS Location | Position |
