Deployment v35.0 11/04/2019

Highlights:

  • Allow for any number of signatures on a PDF. This applies to Transactions, Timecards, Start Forms and POs. Signatures come from the approval flow steps.
  • Add 'Schedule' dropdown and 'Apply Scale Rate' button to Start Form. Used for HTG projects only, applies scale rate for specified position but remains editable
  • Add conditional approval flow to DSW forms if rate is above scale. Big change! Makes Start Form approval flow step required if rate is above scale rate for that position. Similar to ‘require if $’ on POs. 
  • Action to copy all roles from one user onto another. This will save a lot of time when you have to assign roles to a new user.
  • Mobile Design. Several Changes were applied to the Mobile version of the app, to improve usability.
  • Add 'Payroll Settings' panels to the bottom of Personal Info page. As a way to improve the workflow of getting users to opt-in to Digital Tax Docs & paperless Direct Deposits, we want to duplicate the same panels found in Payroll Settings into Personal Info.

From Patches: 

  • Add Ability to Clone Transaction. This applies to Bills, Check Request, Petty Cash, Invoices, Journal Entries, Credit Memo.  This is to mimic the GSA feature.
  • Performance Improvements in PO approval
  • Default location code/all default coding from currency rates tab will auto populate on digital timecards. This was a client request to avoid having to populate those values if they already have a default value in GSA.
  • Watermark was added to PO PDF when the PO is not fully approved. 
  • Data Import Page was created under the Accounting. With this you will be able to upload CSV files associated to the project where they are uploaded.
  • PC- Auto-generate PC/CP account option was added in vendor screen. The account number will be the next sequential and available # in the PC/CP account range.
  • Allow coding on digital timecards to be edited at any time until you request previews for the batch. This will allow users with grossing permission to edit codes (Account, Location, Episode, Set, Tax Credit, FF1, FF2, FF3] at any time until you request previews for the batch.

Timecards:

  • Add 'Paymaster Timecard' column to 'Update Batch' and 'Create Batch'. We needed reference to
  • Add 'Work Location' to 'Paymaster' section of Paymaster timecard. We originally only collected work location at the client level, with no way for the Paymaster to change it except on the Timesheet. This change added a ‘Work Location’ field to the Paymaster timecard.

  • Add files attached to custom forms, Start Form, and Project Start Work page to DSW packet. Files added via file uploader are now added to PDF when downloaded.

  • HTG - Scale Rate Validation Digital Start Forms. On HTG projects, prevents Start Forms from being approved with rates below scale rate for that position
  • Ignore TC column toggles in mobile view. This just means we show all fields on the mobile version of the Digital Timecard, regardless of any settings applied by the user on the desktop version of the timecard.

  • Move 'Position' & Day Type' columns on desktop & inputs on mobile. Pushed fields that are automatically populated to end of timecard
  • Paymaster Timecards - Extend values in 'Pay Rate' column to 4 digits past decimal point.
  • Populate Scale Rate in core project employee with CHTG scale rate. Core Timesheet part of Scale Rate tickets - HTG only
  • Show 'Awaiting My Approval' tab only to users with Timecard2.Access.All permission. Shows tab only to users who approve timecards, prevents confusion for many users.

  • Refine order of 'Items' dropdown in Paymaster timecard. Puts earnings types in order within dropdown was very confusing previously
