  • Added sorting functionality to the Dealership Stock Table
  • Event and Conversion totals are now displayed on Analytics tables

Minor Improvements

  • Major improvements to the Stock Inventory and Stock Model reports in Smart Reporting:
    • Load times reduced from nearly a minute to just a few seconds
    • The reports have now been independently verified for accuracy
    • Previously miscalculated columns such as Total Leads, Total Days, and Average Days have been corrected
    • Exports now include the selected date range in the filename
  • Fixed and aligned searching, filtering, and pagination across Smart Reporting. Filters that previously caused server errors are now fully supported, with front-end and back-end validation in sync
  • Improved performance and efficiency for website login sessions: the system now uses the Smart Reporting Google Analytics endpoint to fetch session totals in bulk, reducing load and complexity
  • Improved performance for Organic Search under Reporting > Organic
  • Enhancements to the Enquiry Overview in Smart Reporting
  • Region filter now fully functional after resolving issues with missing option retrieval
  • Improved validation on Enquiry and Phone Call importers — clearer error messages will now be shown if, for example, a department does not exist
  • Improved handling of database transactions, specifically when a commit fails and rollback isn’t possible — designed to reduce import-related issues
  • Added indexes on key database columns for improved performance in CRM exports and stock operations
  • On OEM Reporting, “Website” is now labeled “Dealer” for clarity and consistency
  • Organic Search and Digital Audio pages now use non-intrusive alerts instead of toasts when no analytics results are available
  • The Activity module has been relocated to the reporting section for easier access
  • The date filter now only triggers when “Apply Now” is clicked, improving performance
