Hiya, 

We are going to be moving to the new UI where you have made trackunit manager look more and feel more like classic. my question is after years of manager looking as it is and why change it? Also why change the UI to look like classic but not change how the new 2.0 access control to be more ‘easier’ ‘less clicks’ ‘less clunky’ like classic also? I think that access control 2.0 is good but there are way too many clicks and seems the flow isnt as smooth as classic. Maybe its what im use too… but worth asking. Biggest issue with 2.0 layout is you can not lock machines by groups/ zones etc. You have to go into every single machine to lock it, when before you could filter by group/ zone etc and work through them clearly on the ‘setting’ screen you can not do this is the ‘fleet’ screen or anywhere else that im aware of. Happy to discuss…

 

many thanks 

 

Thanks

Hi ​@nataliejh - thank you for posting and welcome to the community! I moved your question to this group for discussions around new UI - the right people will see it here.

Thanks,

Hi ​@nataliejh ,

Thank you for reaching out with your questions and feedback – it’s much appreciated!

At Trackunit, we’re constantly iterating to improve the experience for all users. The changes in Manager aim to improve usability and streamline workflows, ultimately helping you achieve value faster with fewer clicks overall. The goal is not specifically to make it similar to Classic, but I do agree that with the changes to the map there are a couple of similarities.

I also understand your concerns about Access Control 2.0, particularly regarding the number of clicks and the workflow differences compared to Classic, and regarding locking the machines in a faster way. Our Product Manager for Access and Safety, Anders, will follow up in this thread to address your points and share more insights.

Once you’ve transitioned to the new UI, I’d love to hear your thoughts and feedback. Feel free to continue the conversation here – it helps us make Manager even better!

Best,
Jonas Goth


Hi Natalie,

Thank you for bringing this up. In the Access Management team here at Trackunit we acknowledge  that locking/unlocking multiple machines can be a cumbersome process. However, it is possible to filter the fleet list on groups. Here's how: 

  1. Click the “Assets” tab
  2. Click the “Filters” button located left of the search field 
  3. Select one or more filters you want to apply. Groups are first on the list, and as a new thing,  you can even pick multiple groups) 

This will produce a table similar to the one you mention in the Classic settings, making it possible to spot the machines in that group with Access Management (Access Management Mode column), you can then click the individual assets you want to change the AM setting for. 

Have a nice day, 

Anders Ostergaard

 


Thanks both Anders and Jonas. 🙂

 

I have just tested the method you have suggested Anders and this is a work around, but still too many clicks. i just feel we are creating turning on access control into a longer process. i don't mean to be negative I'm just being honest. I don't see how this is making the customers life easier moving to a more complex way of working.
