This will prevent errors in Leave Requests and clarify the misconception that timesheets are storing fractions of minutes.

New data type is available as a generic picker for Companies or Employees.
We currently have the option of using a Combo and a sql query to grab data from teh database. For example, the Driver extenstion column in Plant.

Administration
Data imports - controled access based on permissions:
Each data import has a permission that allows users to mak euse of it, or there is the catch all permission which grants access to use all data imports (Run All Imports).
However, some data imports are accessed through its own screen rather than Data imports, like AP Invoice lines in an AP Invoice, Job Invoice lines in a Job Invoice, Stock issues thrigh a Batch, etc. We have improved the access to these Import buttons based on each User’s permission. The Import button will be grayedout if the right permission is not granted.
