Article view in Opter Driver

Drivers can add new Price items and make changes to existing items on shipments in Opter Driver by selecting Price items from the menu in the detail view. This can be useful, for example, if the driver performs an additional service in connection with the delivery. You can customise the view that opens, the item view.

In Opter Driver (classic) for Android, the item view looks like this:

In Opter Driver for iOS and Opter Driver Labs for Android, the driver can also add new Price items to the POD view. For more information, see POD view in Opter Driver and Pods (POD) in Opter Driver.

Prevent drivers from adding or changing Price items

If you want drivers to be able to modify and add Price items, you don't need to do anything. It is standard. However, if you don't want drivers to be able to add or change Price items in the app, set the Mobile data settings ArticlesPermission to "false". Then the menu item Price items is completely hidden in both the detail view and the POD view.

If you want drivers to be able to modify existing Price items, but not add new ones, set the Mobile data settings AddNewPriceItemPermission to "false". This will display the menu item Price items, so drivers can see existing Price items, but they cannot add new ones.

If you want drivers to be able to delete Price items already on the shipment, set the Mobile data settings DeletePriceItemPermission to "true". The Delete button will then appear at the bottom of the article view.

For more information on how to set up Mobile data settings, see Mobile data settings (window).

Customise the item view

When drivers select Price items from the menu, one of the following happens:

• If there are price items on the order, a view opens in which drivers can search among price items that are part of the shipment, create new price items and change existing price items for the shipment. If the driver clicks on Create new price item or any Price item under Change price items, the article view opens.

  

• If there are no Price items on the shipment, the item view opens directly, where the driver can create a new item.

  If you have set up drivers to be able to add new items in the POD view, the Price item view opens where the driver can create a new item. See the image above.

It is possible to choose which fields to display in the price item view and the order in which they are displayed, and also to rename them. The price item view is managed with the settings starting with “SPI_” in the mobile data settings. There are three types of SPI_settings:

• "SPI_XyzPermission", for example SPI_QuantityPermission: Controls whether or not the field is displayed in the view.

• ”SPI_XyzName”, for example SPI_SAR_IdName: the default name for the field can be replaced by a custom name.

• "SPI_XyzOrder", for example SPI_SAR_IdOrder: where in the view the field should be displayed. The lower the number, the higher up the view it is.

For more information on the item view settings, see Mobile data settings (window).

Material Site

In order to select the material site for a Price item in Opter Driver, the following applies:

• The Price item must be available as a manual item.

• Price items must be accessible on mobile devices.

• The Price item must be linked to the material site.

Proceed as follows:

1. Go to Economy > Price lists > Price lists > Price items tab. Make sure that the Price items you want to link to material sites are ticked in the list, and that Available in mobile device is selected.

   

2. Go to Register > Material sites > tab Price items. As the items are unique for each price list, you first select a price list and then an item in the lists to link the item to the material site.

Drivers will need to log out and back in to the app for the changes to be visible.

In the example below, the Price item Gravel 2 is only linked to one material site, the Södertälje dam. Therefore, only that material site is displayed in the app when the driver has selected the Price item Gravel 2.
