...

• AP Vouchers List - The 'Include Subjobs' filter has been added to the filter criteria for use in combination with Job = condition.

• AP Vouchers -

Transactions

• Job Adjustment Batch List - Add a ‘Created By’ filter to Job Adjustment Batch List.

• Job Adjustment Batch - The batch currency is now populated with the local currency code even when foreign currencies are not used. This is to support compatibility with some financial integrations.

Month End

• Batch Control (Export Control) - Added a ‘Created By’ as a filter and a column on Batch Control list.

Subcontracts

• Contractor Daysheet - The Rate on the daysheet was being rounded to 2 decimals on SV Approval. This is an issue where the original rate precision was quoted to more precision, and this issue is now rectified.

  • any listed Plant Classes or Plant Groups or Plant Items, but

  • only for People with one of the listed Roles

Administration
