What's New in Traqspera 2024 R8

Modified: 5 Oct 2026 Traqspera Administration What's New Mobile

The 2024 R8 release of Traqspera includes a Spanish language version of the mobile application and enhancements to LEM reports. This release is available as of September 11, 2024.

New Features

Mobile

  • You can now download a PDF version of a completed daily report in the mobile application. From the Actions menu on a daily report, select the new Download PDF option. You can save the PDF version of the report to your device, print a copy, or email it as needed.

  • Styling updates were made to the mobile application to align with Trimble branding standards for colors, icons, and text layout.

LEM Reports

  • Added the option to Display Equipment Billing Type when creating an LEM report.

    Note: If you edit an LEM report, equipment billing rates are not recalculated. You must change the billing type manually.

  • When you create an LEM report directly from a crew timesheet (using the +Create > +Create LEM option), the report now prefills the crew name and date based on the timesheet.

  • All toggle fields are now based on cookies. If you allow cookies on the Create LEM Report page, your toggle selections will persist from session to session.

  • Added the following Application Settings for LEM reports:
    Setting Description
    Employee Name Display on LEMs Controls how employee names display on LEM reports.

    This selection applies only if you choose either No Grouping or Employee under Group Labor Hours when creating the report.
    Show Start / End Time on LEMs Determines whether start and end times display in the Labor Hours section of LEM reports.

    Start and end times display only if you select No Grouping under Group Labor Hours when creating the report.
    Show Union Code on LEMs Determines whether union codes display on LEM reports.

    • Union codes display only if you select either No Grouping or Job Title under Group Labor Hours when creating the report.
    • To view union codes on an LEM report, the user must have the View Union Code on Timesheets permission.
    Show Wage Code on LEMs Determines whether the timesheet wage codes (not employee default wage codes) display on LEM reports.

    • Timesheet wage codes display only if you select either No Grouping or Job Title under Group Labor Hours when creating the report.
    • To view wage codes on an LEM report, the user must have the View Wage Code on Timesheets permission.

Improvements

Coming Soon: Trimble ID Required to Log In

Logging in with Trimble ID will be required for all users in an upcoming 2024 release. At that time, you will no longer be allowed to log in with your Traqspera user account credentials.

To prepare for this change, users must link their Trimble ID to a Traqspera user account. Select Log In Using TID on the Login page to get started linking your accounts. You can do this now, or you can come back to the Login page to do this at your earliest convenience.

Equipment

You can now add a new equipment status directly from the Import Configuration Settings page. Previously, you could add an equipment status only when creating or editing a piece of equipment.

In the Equipment Import Configuration section, select the plus sign + in the Equipment Status Name header. This opens the Equipment Status window where you can add, edit, or remove an equipment status as needed.

Jobs

  • Added the Superintendent field to the Create Job, Edit Job, Job, and Job List pages. This field is visible only if you have enabled the Superintendent Filter in Application Settings.

    • You can assign a Superintendent to jobs created in Traqspera, not jobs imported from Spectrum.

    • When editing a job, you can change the superintendent on overhead jobs only.

  • Improved loading speed for the Job Status Task Configuration page. Additionally, changes made on this page are now saved automatically. The Save Changes button has been removed.

Mobile

  • A Spanish language version of the mobile application is now available. On the Profile page, select the new Language dropdown field to change the language from English (default) to Spanish. Users can refer to Change the Language in the Mobile Application for help.

    Note:

    • The default language used in the application is based on your device settings. If the default language on a device is set to a language other than English or Spanish, the mobile application defaults to English.

    • Any field names that are customized in Application Settings display as entered in the relevant setting and are not translated.

  • You can now edit equipment days and hours on Daily Reports in the mobile application. To use this feature, the user must have the Can Edit Labor and Equipment Hours permission.

Time Off

On the Time Off Setup page (Settings & Permissions > Time Off Setup), the following changes were made in the Event Type Job Mapping section:

  • The Totals Type field was renamed Linked Spectrum Balance.

  • You can now link multiple time off types to the same Spectrum balance.

    Note: The Time Off Requests page (Time > Time Off) displays only one total per time off type. If you map multiple time off types to a Spectrum balance, only the first one listed in the Event Type Job Mapping table displays on the Time Off Requests page.

For help configuring time off in your portal, see Configure Time Off Requests.

Timesheets

  • You can now allow users to code equipment usage (EU) timesheet entries to a department by enabling the new setting Use Departments on Equipment.

    Note: This new setting applies only if you have also enabled the setting Use Departments.

  • The service work order export now includes intercompany work orders.

Issues Fixed

  • On LEM reports, the dollar sign ($) was showing in the Grand Total in the header even if the setting Show Rate Table on LEMs was set to No.

  • Users could not export AP expenses when advanced authentication was enabled.
