Version 26.10.1 - Released 4th November 2026
A new look calendar, Write Up declarations and new analytics widgets, plus other improvements and bug fixes.
New Features
New look calendar functionality
(SPW-14672, SPW-15199, SPW-15200, SPW-15201)
The calendar is now a full screen under Sales Pipeline, replacing the old pop-up. Switch between Day, Week, Month and List layouts, filter by yard and salesperson, and drag bookings to reschedule or resize them, with clash warnings for staff, vehicles and leave. Shared calendars let you layer team and yard calendars in the left-hand panel with access set per calendar, and saved views bring back your filters and layout in one click. Changes made by your colleagues now appear on screen without a refresh.

Declarations on the Write Up form
(SPW-13332, LAPI-1188)
You can now add declarations to the Write Up form, so salespeople can record things like which add-on products were discussed with the customer. Declaration items are set up under Sales Pipeline Settings > Write Up Declarations and can be configured per account, group or yard. Answers are captured in a new Declaration section above the Terms and Conditions, can be used as email tags, and are available through the Lead API.

Prospect outcomes you can keep out of reporting
(SPW-15088, AR-1242)
Prospect outcomes can now be flagged as Not For Reporting, and an outcome can belong to a single dealership or dealer group as well as the standard shared set. Prospects closed with a flagged outcome are removed from Analytics Reporting across all history, so duplicate or mistaken prospects no longer skew your figures. Loaded in Error is flagged by default, so you may see historical prospect numbers drop slightly after this release. Prospect widgets also gain a new Prospect Outcome filter.

New analytics widgets and smarter default filters
(AR-1199, AR-1200, AR-718, SPW-13965, AR-1270)
Two new Closed to Prospect widgets, a pie chart and a KPI, show how many closed leads were converted into a prospect, with the KPI comparing against the previous period. Analytics can now open pre-filtered to the makes, models and listing types each user works with, and hide the listing types they don't cover. Contact support to have these defaults set up for your users. If you switch dealership in SalesPipeline, Analytics Reporting now shows that dealership's data.

Coming soon: the AutoPlay App
A new way to work your leads.

Duplicate a test drive
(SPW-12059)
When a customer drives more than one vehicle, you can now duplicate an existing test drive, loan vehicle or employee loan from the 3-dot menu on its edit screen. The copy keeps the customer's details, and a checkbox lets you choose whether the signed Terms and Conditions carry across. Pick the new vehicle and times, then save.

Your vehicles in search and AI results
(VDP-497)
Each vehicle display page now publishes structured data describing the vehicle, including make, model, price and specifications. This lets search engines and AI tools such as Google, ChatGPT and Perplexity read your listings as vehicle data, making it easier for them to show your cars with their price and details.

Dropdown filters for price, year and odometer
(VDP-527)
Price, Year and Odometer filters on your website's search and results pages can now show as From and To dropdowns instead of sliders. This is set per Page Profile, along with the price and odometer steps. Sliders stay the default unless you switch them over.
