Timesheets

  • Users will now be able to see a new visualisation of engineer times. This can be shown as bars over a single day, like a calendar view, or you can select a week view to see
  • This includes time from the visits, non-productive time and any unreported time as well.
  • From here users can also Add/Edit timesheet entries to fill in any gaps for your engineers.
  • The first day of the week can be changed in system settings.

Job search – Quick filters

  • Users can now save, share and recall “Quick Filters” to store popular or useful searches.
  • This can be very useful for those that need to swap around different types of job search on a regular basis.

PPM Contracts can now be cancelled

  • Cancelling a PPM Contract will cancel all new jobs and delete all draft invoices.
  • It will be left in a read-only state, so you can still go back and see how it was used.

International Telephone Validation

  • Phone numbers will now allow you to validate with any international country code.
  • You can select the country code with the dropdown to the left of the input box, or it will be recognised as you type.
  • Any saved international numbers will now also be recognised and localised when viewing for your convenience.
  • This will also mean that saved phone numbers will appear in their international format in some parts of the system, including printed documents.
