AngelTrack 2.1 build 389 release notes

Release dates

New releases are always installed during a maintenance window, at 02:00 Central Standard Time on Sunday morning, which is early Sunday afternoon for AUS customers.

Improvements and new features

1. Can now have a third default facility, i.e. can now have default facility A, B, and C. Default facilities appear as shortcuts on the ribbon at the top of every AngelTrack page.
2. All logins to both the Customer Portal and the Employee Portal now go through a simplified login page, and there is no longer any need to remember whether to use HTTP or HTTPS.

New AngelTrack.Com Domain is Now Accessible

All customers may now access their AngelTrack cloud servers using the new shorter domain name: angeltrack.com.

For example, if you access your cloud server like this:

https://acme.angeltracksoftware.com

...then you now have the option to access it like this:

https://acme.angeltrack.com

Both URLs work the same, and will continue to do so; you may use either URL as long as you wish.

HOWEVER, to use the new shorter URL, you must take an extra step if your company meets all of the following criteria:

1. You began using AngelTrack in 2019 or earlier;
2. You use AngelTrack's timeclock;
3. You use the Timeclock Hosts feature to restrict clock-ins to company premises; and
4. You have not yet already asked AngelTrack Support to enable IPv6 on your AngelTrack server.

If you meet all of the above criteria, then do not begin using the new shorter URL until after you've checked your Timeclock Hosts list to verify that your stations' IPv6 internet addresses are recorded.

You've probably just got their IPv4 internet addresses recorded, but this was fine because your old URL (in angeltracksoftware.com) did not allow IPv6 connections. The new shorter URL (angeltrack.com) does allow IPv6, and so any mobile device on your station's WiFi network that makes an IPv6 connection to AngelTrack will not be able to clock-in or -out, until the station's IPv6 address is added to the approved list.

You can edit your AngelTrack cloud server's list of approved station IPv6 addresses by visiting Settings and then clicking the "Timeclock Hosts" item. You must have Administrator, Captain, or HR privileges to alter the list.
