Workbench Release Notes:

Beta Release 4.5.21.1

Scheduled Release - 24 January 2022

Note

Upvise licence changes:

We are moving away from having 3 levels of Upvise Licences on Workbench: Administrator, Supervisor, Operator, to just having one type, Upvise User.On the Licence Matrix, you will now see one option: Upvise User.

When syncing users with a new user to Upvise, the user type in Upvise will be set to Manager only for new users. Thereafter, the user type has to be maintained in Upvise.

A one-off data script will be executed on the 4.5.21 upgrade, to reassign each of the 3 legacy Upvise licences to the new Upvise User one.

New Features

Jobs

  • Contracts:
    Claim Date vs Invoice Date: On Claims tab on a contract, you can now identify Claim dates as opposed to Invoice date. These dates are set within in a Contract Claim. This allows users to identify what has been claimed but not invoiced/certified yet.
    Claim Date is also available on Job Sales Invoices as a new column and a filter.

    Default Claim Date for new Claims is Today.
    Default Invoice Date is same as Claim Date on new Claims.
