Feature Revisions

Jobs

• Contracts - Schedule lines from Budgets:
  When adding schedule lines to a Contract Schedule from a At Revenue and Cost Element budget, and the Separate Lines option is selected, the schedule lines were missing the Quantity and Rate from the Revenue budget line. This has been rectified.

Purchasing

• Purchase Requisitions:
  A new filter Include Subjobs has been added to the Purchase Requisition List screen.

  

• AP Vouchers:

  • Handle invalid error caused by Control Parameter Reinstate  PO Commitments From AP Credits:
    When processing a voucher for an AP Credit, with no PO lines linked to it, and the mentioned control parameter was enabled, an invalid error would appear. This has been rectified.

Subcontracts

• Bonds' attachments:
  The attached files in Bonds were not being saved properly (missing the link to the actual Bond). This has been rectified.

Timesheets

• Timesheet Approvals:

  • Job Manager approval - leave requests:
    An invalid error was preventing a Job Manager from approving a leave request transaction. This has been rectified.

  • Job Manager approval - Timesheet import:
    A new option to import timesheets has been added to the Job Manager Approval screen.
    

    

Expense Claims

• Expense Administrators and users with only a Credit Card supplier company:
  Employees with only a Credit Card supplier company on their user setup, would not come up in the list of employees that an Administrator could create an expense on behalf of. This has been rectified, and any employee with a Credit Card supplier, a Personal expense claim supplier, or both can now be selected as expected.

• Expense Claim - Expense Administrator approval:
  Standard approvals - A user who is an Expense Claim Administrator could not approve the expense claim from the Expense Administrator screen. When the user ticked the Approve flag and then clicked Save the Approve tick would revert. This has been rectified.

• Expense Administrator with no Expense Claim company on User setup:
  EC Admin users with no Expense Claim supplier configured on their user setup, could not edit an existing EC and change the date, as the system was looking for an EC supplier on the Admin’s user. The system now checks the EC’s employee setup, and not the Admin’s.

  A join to Plant Pricing Groups from Plant Attributes has been added to the Sharperlight data model v2.0.8
