9.45.0

 

Release Date: May 15, 2024

New Features / Enhancements

Feature Description
OneDrive Integration

Users can now navigate to their OneDrive/SharePoint folders when adding files to attach in their project documents.

With this integration, the Attachments section in Onware has been redesigned, allowing users to attach files from the following locations:

  • Local computer folders

  • Onware files (Project Files)

  • OneDrive/SharePoint folders

In addition, this new design also allows multiple deletion of files.
Email Subscription: Change Order

Change Order Email subscription(s) can now be set up per Contract Type. 

Things to remember:

  • Change Order Subscriptions that were added prior to 9.45.0 will be displayed without “Contract Type” in the “Existing Email Subscriptions” list.

  • For each individual email, any existing Change Order Email subscription must be manually removed first from the list prior to adding a Contract-specific Change Order Email subscription.

  • When Email subscription is added AND Contract Type “All” was selected, the Email subscription will be added in the “Existing Email Subscriptions" list without a Contract Type.

  • When Email subscription is added AND specific Contract Type was selected, for example (Allowance), the subscription is added with the specific Contract in the Existing Email Subscriptions list.
Minor Performance Enhancement Performance of Copy Project feature has been improved.
Onware Sync: Submittal Number Formats

When the first 2 digits of the Submittal’s Spec Section is neither available nor digits, Onware Sync will still transfer the Submittal into Onware without a Division Number.

Quotation Contract Administrators can now edit/update the Quotation's title, as required, while Quotation is being reviewed. Previously, Quotation's title can only be edited/updated before it is issued.
Setting: Weekday Response Time We have added a new setting called Weekday Response Time, which allows Project Administrators to set whether the Response Time will only include weekdays when calculated.

Setting: Cut off time (for Submittals)

 Project Administrators can now set a cut off time for Submittals which determines the start date when calculating the Submittal's aging. When cut off time is set and the Submittal is issued after the cut off time, the Submittal's aging wil start on the next calendar day.
Setting: Document Number Padding The setting has been updated so that when value is set as the site's default, the value will only apply to new projects without affecting current or existing projects. The site's default value will only be copied to new projects.
User Access Group: Contract Administrator

Contract Administrators now have to access the Email Audit page to allow them to manage and review Emails sent to their project participants when they are identified as the Project Manager/Contract Administrator in Project details page without giving them the Project Administrator access.
User Access Group: General Contractor Any Unsolicited Change Requests (UCR) and Quotations that have been issued, or recommendations have been requested and still being reviewed will not be viewable to General Contractors.
User Directory We have added the "Click to Fetch" button in the User's profile page, allowing Project Administrators to get the last login information, only as needed.
