Integrations
Upvise
Punch item Display:
Introduced an enhancement in our custom punch item display setting to include Custom Columns displayed control for the equipment module in Upvise Equipment display Options.
Workbench Log Number in Upvise:
"Get Log number" function has been made available where a user can use the button in a new Job in Upvise, to obtain the Workbench service log number immediately in on the web when scheduling a new Job. The "get Log" function has been optimized to be compatible with Project Jobs, Site Jobs and Equipment Jobs.Plant assignments and Plant Return enhancements:
New "Plant Return" form which will mark the plant item as "returned" in the Workbench plant assignment.
In Upvise, this Plant Return form will also unallocate the plant item from the project and change the custom flag on the plant item to "Inspection Required".This form also supports Plant Return Charges. This can be used to record the condition of the plant item when it is returned and charge any damages or refuelling costs to the Job in Workbench (the Job the plant was assigned to) to recover those costs from your client. This Subform will use the output schedule on the Workbench Job/ Upvise Project, and the costs will be recorded as Job Outputs.
Upvise Jobs to use numbering from Workbench:
Enhancements have been made to ensure that the right numbering sequence defined in the Workbench setting is used when creating Upvise Jobs. Regardless of the point of creation of an Upvise job the log sequence will be sourced from the numbering setting.
