Official Release Date: April 24th, 2024

New Functionalities:

TAG Gateway

Our Solution for Static IP Requirements

Verosoft is thrilled to announce the release of our new TAG Gateway, designed to cater to clients operating within their own BC environments and requiring a static IP address for whitelisting our TAG-API.

In order to guarantee a static IP for our customers, our development team has created the TAG Gateway — a new routing API that redirects TAG API requests through a static host. Clients who depend on receiving requests from a consistent IP can now enjoy seamless service and enhanced security.

Key Features:

• Static IP Address: Guaranteed static IP for all requests.
• Enhanced Security: With identifiable IPs for whitelisting, security is significantly improved.
• Consistency: Ensures all tag requests appear from the same IP, providing reliability and trust in communications.

Imagine our service as a central office: even as the internal dynamics change, the "mail" - or in this case, API requests - is always routed through the reception (TAG Gateway), ensuring that every message is consistently dispatched from the same, trusted source.

For more information on how to configure the TAG Gateway for your business needs, please contact our customer success team at support@adnm.net.

Technician Task Security Feature: Enhanced Control and Transparency:

We understand the importance of seamless collaboration among technicians while ensuring a clear and controlled workflow. Our new Technician Task Security Feature empowers you, the maintenance manager, to define precise access levels for different user groups, providing the transparency and control you need.

New Security Levels

• Full Access: Complete control to view, modify, and report maintenance for all work order tasks, regardless of assignment.
• Personnel Group Access: Technicians can view all tasks but only modify and report maintenance for tasks assigned to their personnel group.

• Limited Access: Technicians can only see, modify, and report maintenance tasks assigned to their technician code.

EQ Page Enhancements: Part List and Item List

We've enhanced our Equipment (EQ) Page with two valuable additions - the Part List and Item List. This enhancement streamlines your equipment management by providing easy access to associated parts and items.
