• The Open Tasks Tab now also lists Returns that require a pickup appointment along side service tasks.
• Creating a pickup appointment now has more descriptive buttons for saving.

Content & Visuals

While the process to create a request is fairly simple, its still important to add a few lines of text for users that end up struggling with the instructions. Portal content now has more options for styling & displaying the information you want to present to customers

• Content now allows for Lists, Highlighted Urls and various other styling options
• The Carrier selection page updated to be more compact & readable. Defaults to displaying 2 instead of 4 carriers side by side.

Bugfixes & Quality of Life

• Updating an existing route in logistics settings is available
• Updated various tags & labels in the admin for clarity
• the help / tool-tip text in a survey is now optional and does not display the ? icon in the portals when empty.
• Surveys using the pull-down menu now retain styling options in all situations

• Zipcode validations have been extended to be more inline with global standards, including behind the scenes re-mapping for deviation to carriers or secondary systems. Such as Rural USA zipcodes, and variants on State / province specific zipcode ranges
• Altered some of the source data for displaying certain names & locations to reflect a more accurate state.

Technical & architecture
