New Features

Break column - An optional Break column has been added to the Daily Diary Timesheet to allow easier capture of time quantity by specifying the number of breaks taken (of a predefined duration). The standard break duration (in hours) is specified in the setting “Break Duration Hours”. On specifying the number of Breaks taken, the Quantity is deducted by the total duration of standard breaks. The Breaks column is hidden by default and can be maintained in Grid Management.

Employee Profile - An optional Employee Profile column has been added to the Daily Diary Timesheet. If the User record does not have an Employee Profile, then the field will not be enabled during data entry. The Employee Profile column is hidden by default and can be maintained in Grid Management.

Contract Claim Accruals - A new process has been developed to accrue Contract Claims. The batch is a reversing batch and you can choose to export the data to Excel via the Export button. Note: Closing a batch does not stop the movement of the accruals. If you generate a batch with no Profit Centre, all transactions for that Financial company will move to that batch.

...

AP Vouchers -
- + New AP Voucher button has been added to the Voucher screen, so that you can create a new voucher from the voucher you have displayed.
- Show the PO Unit Rate on the PO Lines tab. This can be be maintained in Grid Management.
- Change the validation on the Workflow limits to the GST exclusive value.
- The select Workflow Schema for a Docket based AP voucher is now based on the docket line job instead of the This Voucher job that would typically be the Docket Accrual job.

Payment import - Added external ID's to AP invoices. When payments are made in MYOB, the import process will check: 1) if the AP invoice has an external ID and match against this, then 2) match the AP Invoice ID against the MYOB Purchase No. Where there are manually entered AP invoices in MYOB that have the same Purchase No as Workbench AP Invoice ID and there is no External ID, and the AP invoice in Workbench is fully paid, you can stop incorrect payments from being logged against the invoice. The System Admin user can go to APInvoices in the Scaffold and add an external ID to that invoice ie: PAID. When the payment import is run, the manually created invoices will not find a match to the Workbench AP invoice.

Voided AR Receipts and Payments - Added the functionality to import voided receipts and payments into Workbench.

Payroll Export file - Added the ability to export the payroll batch to a flat file. In Settings > File Based Payroll Export, add the financial company that you intend to use the Payroll export for and tick the value box. When the payroll batch is exported, the flat file will be emailed to the the user who exported the batch. Make sure the user has a valid email address in their user record.
