Enhanced User Experience | Assure Expenses FY25 Q1 & Q2 Updates

In the first half of FY25, we introduced a series of enhancements for Assure Expenses to improve functionality and usability across key areas.

Key updates include:

Mobile App Performance: Improved key pages loading and responsiveness for a smoother user experience.
Enhanced Accessibility: Dark theme accessibility is now refined across all pages, and we’ve updated the app’s colour scheme and product name to align with our new corporate branding.
Filter Rules Overhaul: The process for creating and updating filter rules has been restructured, offering a more intuitive experience for system administrators.
Duty of Care Module Upgrade: We’re currently rebuilding our Duty of Care module using modern microservices technology. This update allows for greater scalability and supports the development of new features requested through customer feedback.

Read on for Q1 and Q2 highlights and the benefits these features bring.

Mobile App Performance

We’ve made substantial improvements to key areas of the mobile app for a smoother user experience, including a performance boost on the Current Claims page to speed up loading.

The Select Expense screen is now faster as well, allowing quicker access to the list of allowable expense items when adding to a claim, so you can enter details more efficiently.

Filter Rules

We've significantly improved the performance of the "Filter Rules" configuration pages in administrative settings.

Now, when adding or editing a filter rule, only the necessary records are loaded into the display panel, rather than retrieving every parent and child element. Additionally, a new process now saves records in real-time as they’re created allowing changes to appear instantly in the summary display with no need to wait until all the changes are complete.

The delete function has also been improved to apply to individual changes, offering more flexibility. Plus, we’ve added safeguards to prevent duplicate records for department, cost code, and code filters when descriptions are used instead of codes.

Mobile App Accessibility and Branding

We’ve updated our mobile app to enhance accessibility when using dark theme and have changed the default color scheme from purple to blue to align with our new corporate branding.

Additionally, all references to "Selenity" and "Allocate" have been replaced with "RLDatix," and "Selenity Expenses" is now "Assure Expenses" to reflect our updated company and product names.

The app now features refreshed logos, with the product logo and name updated to Assure Expenses, and the company logo updated to RLDatix.

Duty of Care Module

We’re currently re-writing our entire Duty of Care module, and the driver licence and vehicle document reminder services using newer microservices technology to allow us the flexibility to develop new feature enhancements requested through our customer feedback sessions and ideas portal.

In quarter 2 we completed the re-write of the reminders service and this has been rolled out to all customer databases bringing the benefit of new technology for those subscribed to the Driver Compliance Pack.

Since the new reminder service is now re-written as a series of standalone microservices elements, we now have the ability to provide updates and deploy changes to the reminder services without having to release the entire Expenses system.

Additional benefits mean that the reminders are queued in a notification service to be sent as background tasks to Expenses, improving the performance of both Expenses and Duty of Care.

We’re continuing with our re-write of the Duty of Care module for the driver and approver processes and uploading of attachments.

We're excited to move forward into the second half of the financial year, which brings us new features to look towards.

We're planning updates to the following areas of Expenses:

Duty of Care Module: We’ll continue re-writing the Duty of Care module elements using newer microservices technology to allow us the flexibility to develop new feature enhancements requested direct by our customers and through our customer feedback sessions and the ideas portal.
Feedback and ideas: We’ll also be looking at new features based on your feedback, such as the ability to upload a vehicle insurance document for multiple company vehicles, or the ability to allow insurance options to be specified for private vehicles but exclude company vehicles.
