Workbench Release Notes

IN PROGRESS

Beta Release 4.5.34.1

Scheduled Release - 25 July 2022

Daysheets:

Changing Daysheet Date changes Job Transactions Date:
When changing a Dasyheet Date, the date on Job Transactions in that Dasyheet will also be updated to the new Dasyheet date.

Subcontract Retentions:
To maitain MDE compatibility, the logic used for the calculation of Retentions is done in Web Workbench by specific Stored procedures, and MDE Retention calculations stay the same as they originaly were.
Subcontract Claim:
- Payment Due Date:
  Payment Due Date on a subclaim was displaying a calculated default date, rather than displaying the dated that was saved on the claim. This was only a display issue, the date was always saved in the background when edited. This has been rectified.
- Orphan Claimed value:
  When a Subcontract Claim Line that was initially certified and subsequently uncertified (removed from the Claim), the actual Job Transaction was not being deleted leaving a Cost on the Job. This has been rectified and the Job transaction linked to a subcontract claim line is deleted when the line is uncertified.

EBA Mode:
EBA Mode control parameter value was cached until the application was restarted. This has been changed so the change takes effect as soon as the EBA mode is updated.
EBA Tags on Jobs and Employees:
The selection of EBA tags on Jobs and Employees has been increased to display up to 20 tags matching the text typed by the user, Tags are now displayed in alphabetical order.
EBA Additional Profiles:
The rules to convert excess hours on ‘Time and Half' Group into 'Double Time’ were not working. This has been rectified.

GST on Manual AR Invoice lines:
GST type is now a mandatory field on AR Invoice Manual lines. Previusly it was not enforced which incorrectly allowed invoices to be exported with no GST type.

Extension columns on a Quote:
The name of Extension columns that were the same as existing Quote fields were not displaying on the Extension Columns tab. This has been rectified.

Reporting - Reports:

The 'Export to Excel' option on SSRS reports now downloads a file with a .xlsx extension.

Email attachments using Office 365 authentication:

Reengineered the Office 365 integration to cater for larger file attachements on emails. Maximum attachment size suggested is 20 MBs per attachment.
