  • Objects selected in individual building elements are also copied

 

Selecting a type

  • Manufacturers appear in alphabetical order in the first drop-down menu of the type selector

 

Website builder

  • On the website created by Fryda, there is a new building element called "Price list" with which we can display our price list on our website. The list of products displayed in the price list can be filtered, and of course, the price list immediately reflects any price changes made in Fryda, so you don't have to worry about it

New building elements and application editing options

In this update, building applications received numerous options, and we can view the new related elements in the building block for displaying connected elements to the application element, and the application store also received new options.

Application Store

  • When uploading an application to the store, now it is possible to choose and specify the domain of the application, as well as to specify that the page should load without the Fryda header on the given URL, making it appear as if the application does not belong to the Fryda ecosystem, allowing for more targeted marketing to promote the application

 

Settings

Next to the button for creating a new application, customer, and object, you can now also add a user (colleague) to your application. Due to the nature of the component, we recommend it for HR applications. Additionally, the bus route management view has been improved, and user information can now be linked to input fields.

Input field components
  • Now, the user/employee data can be linked to the input fields (this can be used for the employee creation button)
Employee/User Creation Button
  • In applications, a button can be placed to create an employee/user based on the input fields linked to the employee/user, we recommend this component for HR applications, where if we have requested employee data in any form, then by employing one-click, we can create an employee from the employee.
Bus route management view
  • It is now possible to change the driver in case of resignation or necessity. Click on the Driver Change button at the top, and select who will be replaced by whom from what date to what date, and the system will replace the driver on all routes with the selected driver.

  • In this view, most parameters are editable, and trip data is expandable
  • It is possible to export the displayed data

The website builder has received new features, including object elements and a bus transportation building block!

In your website, you can now separate the menu options visible when logged in and when logged out. You can also use a type selector for objects. The bus passenger transportation service has been expanded with several new features in this update.

Web Builder

  • For customer portal websites, you can control when each menu item appears: always (default), only for logged-in users, or only for logged-out users. This way, you can give your website a different look and options for a new and existing customer. Imagine being able to display a description of your services and the option to reorder a service if the customer is already logged in, all on the same webpage.

In today's update, we have made the job application store, customer portal, and types import process faster.

Now, the objects (only their structure) and the types (specific types) are also transferred to the applications downloaded by users if they were used in that particular application. In addition, a preview option has been added to the customer portal editor, making it faster to import both types and objects.

Application Store
  • The system now also transfers connected objects and types to the user who downloads the application
Customer Portal
  • When editing individual pages, the preview option is available both in the page list and for individual pages
  • Fixed an issue where the system occasionally prompted for login even with public settings

Object pairing

  • Two new options for pairing objects within a given interval (monthly and weekly can be selected)
  • 1 recorded object and 4 associable objects available for selection
  • Users can also be selected
  • In the display, the first column is the first object, and the rest are dates where the individual objects are additional rows within a column
  • Search can be done between values and the system indicates if the object has already been used, or if the particular team member is on leave during that period or has been assigned elsewhere
  • The system notifies users if a particular user is on leave

Websites in focus in today's update

In this update, we have further developed our website builder and our website, and also fixed a bug.

Fryda website

  • The demo video now appears on the right side of uploaded applications in the app store
  • Information about the website builder has been added to the homepage

 

Website Builder

  • System now updates changes quicker in the editor view after saving an element

Customer portal

With Frydával, now your business can also have a website!

Today, our client portal development project has advanced, allowing the system to generate a website for the company.

 

The website is free and allows the company to easily connect with its customers by incorporating various elements such as login, quote requests, and even a webshop to streamline their work.

 

The website has 2 operating modes: public (recommended) or non-public. In the former case, the website is accessible to anyone, while in the non-public setting, only customers with login accounts can determine the website's accessibility and URL.

 

Any application's initial workflow can be displayed on the website, along with the ability to upload text and images. News recorded in the CMS can also be posted on the website.

 

A showcase video and a blog post about the website will soon be available.

New features in embedded functionality.

Until now, you could already share the first step of your applications, and even associate it with a QR code. This function has received three new improvements in this update.

Embed Code Functionality

The first operation of the applications could be embedded in any website. This feature has received some updates:

  • The height of the embed version is now automatically set, developers no longer need to worry about setting the height
  • The type selector and all actions that run after a workflow is completed now work in the embed version (in case of multi-workflow applications)
  • In the embed version, the logged-in client's data (e.g. on the client portal) are pre-filled in the input fields linked to client fields

Three of our building elements have evolved again.

The Contract Items Prices element has received new features, but it also allows copying subcontractor data with the New Application Creator element, and the deadline works in the Subcontractors element.

Contract Item Prices Building Element - Possible to handle deadlines in this building element, and the system indicates with a red background if the deadline has passed. Create new application element button Building Element - It is now possible to copy subcontractors' building element data into the new application (by default, this feature is turned off). Subcontractors Building Element - Deadlines can now be set for subcontractor works, and the system will only show the deadline column in the subcontractor's email if a deadline is specified; otherwise, it will not display the deadline column.

Three of our building blocks received new features.

In this update, the Customer selector, Product selector, and Contract items builder have been improved.

Customer Selector Component

  • The system displays the ratio of sent and accepted quotes in a more compact form, if available.

Product Selector Component

  • Deadline management function, can be activated in the component settings.

Contract Items Component

  • The system also displays the net and gross amounts.
  • There is a possibility for deleting all items at once, in which case, the system also severs connections with associated elements.

Object binding to input fields

In this development package, it is now possible to associate customer objects (such as the customer's cars, devices, any kind of item) with input fields. This allows for specifying object input fields separately, and the system automatically creates or links them to the existing customer object. We recommend this for applications that are publicly accessible.

Input Field Component

  • It is now possible to define the connected object's properties in the input fields, which can be later used for automating tasks like creating a customer object with a subsequent action

 

Create Customer Based on Connected Input Fields Action

  • This should be done only once, after the completion of the first workflow

 

New Action to Create Customer Object when Workflow Completes

  • Upon completion of the workflow, the system generates the customer object
  • To achieve this, necessary input fields need to be connected to the object input fields
  • This should be done only once, after the completion of the first workflow
  • Recommended for public-facing applications, so the object selection can be hidden from the customer

Improved type selector and a new action.

The new option of the type selector component can now display the list of associated products, and a new action has been added to the system to enable the copying of related items into the items to be invoiced.

Type Selection - New option among the builder element settings to show a connected product list after selection (disabled by default)   New action to set if items linked to the selected type can be copied to the invoiced items - Configurable for workflow completion - Copied items can be edited later - System also copies quantities - Recommended to use with today's type selector improvement

New automatically generated statistics

The system uses AI to always display relevant statistics to users based on the specific elements and their relationships. The first such automated feature is associated with the building element called Contract Item Prices. In addition, we have also developed the Contract Item Prices building element.

Contract item prices building element
  • Possible to link contract item prices to the elements otherwise associated with the application element of the project
  • An error has been corrected, which occasionally brings the select connected application elements in multiple copies when linked

 

Statistics for the Contract item prices building element
  • The first instance of Fryda's automatically AI-generated statistics
  • It appears when you click on the Statistics button at the top of the application element list if you use the Contract item prices building element
  • In this statistic, you can see the progress experienced in the selected period, the system shows progress item by item before and during the selected interval, all highlighted in different colors

Information related to types

Now you can upload additional information with custom titles for selected types, including text information, images, and files. This feature will also appear in the type selector.

Improved design - More transparent design in the system application editor, front-end editor   Types - Information button can now be placed for each type - The name of the information button can be set for each type group - Description and image can be uploaded for each information - This information will also appear in the type selector component for the selected type

This update also affects three areas and mainly represents progress in terms of display.

Improved design in the budget plan module, new information and colors in the linked application module, and improved product category management.

Cost Budgeting Plan Building Element

  • Improved design in this building element

 

Linked Application Elements Building Element

  • For elements where there is no price or quantity, the system applies an orange background
  • The system merges rows of the identified linked elements and also displays any potential notes attached to the application
  • The system also displays object data linked to the application element with merged rows

 

Product Categories

  • Fixed an error that allowed setting the parent category for current category in product categories

Design customization is possible in both of our building elements.

In the case of section title and section description, it is now possible to specify whether there should be a background, the color of the background can be selected, and the text color can also be chosen, making the appearance of applications created with Fryd even more customizable.

The section title and section description are two building elements with which we can provide a description or text explanation for the application, making it easier for employees to use the application and onboard.

For these two building elements, the following customization options are available in the Building Element Settings section (in the Application Editor):

- You can set whether there should be a background behind the text
- You can set the background color
- You can set the text color
