January 2026 Release Notes - Formula Fields, User Safeguards, and Better Object and Widget Builder

Build custom fields that combine text and format timestamps — no spreadsheet required.

Why this matters:

Display shipper + consignee in a single column, make your own unique IDs for client orders, and more without creating manual data entry steps
Convert raw timestamps into readable times your dispatchers and drivers actually use
Build more expressive board views and widgets without adding clutter to your underlying orders

Before you delete a custom field, see exactly what breaks — then decide with full context.

Why this matters:

Catch silent breakages before they reach customers
Know which widgets, automations, and workflows depend on a field before removing it
Build and refine your custom setup with confidence as your configuration grows

Before: Delete a field → workflows silently break → you find out when a customer complains about missing data.

After: Delete a field → see "This field is used in 3 widgets and 1 automation" → make an informed decision.

How to use: Object Builder → Custom Fields → click Delete on any field → review the dependency list before confirming.

Choose how far back TED looks when connecting a new email account — so your first sync is clean, not chaotic.

Before: TED processed your entire inbox history on first sync — could take hours and surface orders from years ago.

After: Set how far back TED ingests before connecting — last 7 days, 30 days, or all time.

How to use: Settings → Connected Email Settings → Connect Email → set Initial ingest volume before confirming.

Your widgets now mark themselves done and close as fields get populated — fewer clicks, faster dispatch.

Why this matters:

Less manual clicking to mark widgets complete as you enter data
Your team moves through order entry at a faster pace — enter less, dispatch more
Workflow steps stay out of your way once they're done

Before: Custom widgets required extra clicks to mark complete, even after you'd filled in the required fields.

After: As fields get populated, widgets close automatically — half the clicks to get through your workflow.

January was a Builders month. New formula power, safeguards that protect your setup as you scale, and workflow improvements that cut the clicks between you and dispatch.
