Workbench Release Notes

IMPORTANT! for clients hosting Workbench on-premise and using Upvise

A Workbench upgrade is required this month to ensure the implementation of the latest security patches included in the Upvise DLL upgrade to version 2.1. 

The new DLL version is incorporated in the Workbench general release version 4.6.1 and any later versions. 

Please note that older versions of the DLL will no longer be supported by Upvise starting 1st March 2023. To minimize any potential disruption to your Upvise integration, it is imperative that you upgrade your Workbench to version 4.6.1 or later, as soon as this is practical for you.

It is expected that clients will regularly update their systems to receive these updates and maintain the highest level of security.

Beta Release 4.6.2

Scheduled Release - 27 February 2023

Feature Revisions

Jobs

  • Budgets:

    • Job Budget approval email template:
      The link to the Budget and the Requested For were not resolving correctly. This has been rectified.

  • Contracts:

    • Contract Claim Schedules:
      The Sales Code for Schedule lines did not default accordingly based on the Default Sales Code selected in the header. This has been rectified.

    • Line details on Contract Claim Schedules has been increased to 250 characters.

Management Reports

  • Job reports:

    • Job Summary with Margin and WIP Movement report has been fixed and the WIP calculations are displaying correrctly now.

Dockets & Daysheets

  • Docket Schedule Import:
    When importing a Docket Schedule an invalid error was being displayed although the schedule lines were imported successfully. This has been rectified.

Purchasing

  • Job Procurement:
    Creating Purchase Orders and Purchase Requisitions from a Job procurement list was not working as expected. This has been rectified.

  • Purchase Order Status:
    With Standard PO approvals (not workflow approvals) the "PO Status" column showed as In Progress even when the PO was fully approved. This has been rectified to reflect the correct status when using Standard approval process.

  • AP Vouchers

    • Deleting AP Credits was throwing an error. This has been rectified and AP Credits can now be deleted.

    • Multi value review:
      On Function based Workflow schemas with Derived limits, the value limit from the first AP Voucher Reviewer is being passed to subsequent Reviewers when the voucher is reassigned and this shouldn’t be the case. This behaviour has been modified and regardless of multi value or single value approvals, the corresponding limits are used.

Subcontracts

  • Token on email templates for Subcontracts:
    the Report-SubContractClaimApproved email template now supports same tokens as Report-SubContractClaim email template.

  • Control mandatory dates on Subcontracts:
    Two new Control Paratemeters have been added to make Subcontract dates Contract Awarded date and Original Practical Completion date mandatory if required. If these Control parameters are set to yes, then a Subcontract Claim cannot be created until the mandatory dates are populates on the Subcontract.
    These control parameters are created with a default value = No, hence dates are not mandatory.

    • 'BETA FEATURE - Subcontract Contract Awarded date required before subclaim'

    • 'BETA FEATURE - Subcontract Original Practical Completion date required before subclaim'

Plant

  • Plant Assignment Bulk Issues:
    Date filters have been enhanced to allow users to find Assignenments that have start and end on the same day, and a + option has been added.

Work Breakdown

  • Profit Centres:
    GL Suffix and Prefix on Profit Centres has been increased from 20 to 30 characters.

Administration

  • Tracking changes on Scaffold:
    Changes done using Scaffold will be tracked. And the filter options on Scaffold now display in alphabetical order.

  • Licences:
    All Role licenes now have access to Purchase Requisitions and Plant Meter Readings.

General

Old triggers populating table AuditInformation have been removed. This table is not used for audit purposes anymore.

Integrations

Attaché

  • Suppport for AP invoice batch exports is now available.

SAP

  • GST on AR Invoices:
    To avoid discrepances of Workbench Ar Invoice total and SAP AR Invoice total by cents due to GST rounding diferences the integration for AR Invoices now adds an adjustment line if necessary to ensure the total invoice value including GST matches Workbench.

Upvise

  • Punch Items:
    A display bug was fixed in the punch item view to expose the project that the equipment is allocated to.

  • Plant Assignment dates not syncing to Workbench accurately:

    In some cases where the assignments were created in a different Time Zone to the one of the Upvise server, the the date was converting to the prior day. This has been rectified.

  • Upvise to Workbench sync performance improvement:
    A new hourly task to clean the table where the sync history is stored (syncLogLines) has been created. Runs everyday hourly from 10PM to 5AM.

  • No labels
