May 2026 brought the new Reports and Dashboards experience, clearer driver role labels across the whole application, a dedicated permission for ACH banking details, and a new Per Unit accessorial rate type.

Overview

May’s biggest change was reporting: dashboards you can use as delivered, then filter, duplicate, and build on. Alongside it, two changes you will notice everywhere — driver roles are now labelled Primary and Secondary instead of Driver 1 and Driver 2, and ACH account and routing numbers are now masked unless a user has been granted permission to see them.

Reporting & Insights (May 1)

Reports and Dashboards, built into Alvys

Reporting now lives inside Alvys. Open Reports from the left navigation and select Custom Reports to find two dashboards ready to use on day one: an Operational Dashboard covering execution health, on-time performance, load flow and throughput, utilization, and an exceptions and risk panel; and a Financial Dashboard covering financial health, revenue and margin, lane and load profitability, customer profitability ranking, and financial exposure. The delivered dashboards are a starting point rather than the whole feature. You can filter them down to a time period, customer, lane, driver, or business segment, drill into any KPI that needs explaining, duplicate a dashboard when your team needs its own variation, and build your own visualizations and metrics for questions the defaults do not answer. Worth knowing:
  • The delivered dashboards are visible to higher-level roles by default. They are not automatically shared with everyone — an admin shares them with the users or teams who need them.
  • You can schedule a dashboard to arrive on a cadence, or set an alert on it, rather than remembering to check.
  • Reporting is a paid add-on and became available to subscribing accounts on May 1.

Drivers (May 23)

Driver 1 and Driver 2 are now Primary Driver and Secondary Driver

Driver role labels are consistent across Alvys. Wherever you previously saw Driver 1 you now see Primary Driver, and Driver 2 is now Secondary Driver — the lead driver responsible for the trip, and the co-driver supporting it. The workflow is unchanged; only the wording is clearer. Where you will see it:
  • Load boards and trip details, including the column headers you sort and filter by.
  • Asset assignment forms, and the error message when the same driver is picked twice.
  • Driver payment screens and rate management, so it is obvious which role a rate or payment belongs to.
  • Dispatch Planner grid columns and menus, and driver profile pages.
  • Driver and load filters, endorsements, event logs, and change history.
Customer-facing documents are deliberately untouched: invoices, exported reports, and rate confirmations still read “Driver 1” and “Driver 2”, so nothing your customers receive changes format. Learn more: How to Set Up Assignment Preferences for Drivers

Companies, Contacts & Access (May 26)

  • A new View ACH Details permission controls who can see ACH account and routing numbers, wherever they appear — driver details, carrier payment methods, and carrier packets. Without it, the numbers stay masked. It is enabled by default for the Admin and Partner Admin roles on new users; existing users needed it granted explicitly, and full enforcement began on June 8, 2026. Admins assign it from the Permissions section of the add-user or edit-user screen.

Billing & Accounting (May 29)

  • Accessorials support a new Per Unit rate type, joining Flat, Weight, Distance, Volume, and Time. Choose it in the accessorial type settings and the charge is the per-unit rate multiplied by the quantity entered — which is what you want for count-based charges such as extra stops billed at a rate per stop.

Public API

Integrator-facing webhook and endpoint changes also shipped in May. Those are documented for developers in the Alvys changelog rather than here.
