11.21 Release Notes 3-Mar-2015

Version: 11.21.0 (Build Number: 3352)

New Features

• BI Point

  Provides zero configuration, read only access to a relational database, containing a carefully selected set of tables for reporting purposes. Data replication is done in real time so for all intended purposes it equivalent to having direct access to Fewzion's database, however BI Point offers significant benefits over more traditional direct database access.

• Connection Status Notification

  You will now be notified if Fewzion loses connection to the server, and again once the connection is reestablished.

• Concurrent Leaves Allowance Setting

  You can now tell Fewzion if you wish to allow or deny Leave Requests to have overlapping dates. When set to "true", there is no limitation on overlapping dates. When set to "false", a Leave Request cannot be created if it would overlap dates with an existing Request, whether Pending or Approved. Note that Deleted & Declined Requests do not count as overlapping.

Improvements

• Upgraded Fewzion’s database engine (RavenDB) to version 3, paving the way for future features.

• BI Point:
  • Added prefixes to avoid potential conflicts
  • Added KPIs table
  • Added remaining fields to existing tables

• Administrators can now show or hide Users in the Manage Users List if they are marked as "inactive" by toggling the "Show Inactive" checkbox.

• You can now navigate around the roster by selecting a date in the Calendar popup. Additionally, you can return to the default view at any time. These new options appear as 2 new buttons in the navigation panel (top right of the roster screen).

• You can now flag a Leave Request as "Approved (Pending Paperwork)", for a more granular categorisation of the User Leave approval process.

• Various cosmetic improvements to the Leave Kiosk, Actuals and Fewzion.BI Point

• Updated GM’s report to include the full Process name & a "completed" tag.

• Updated Daily KPIs report to include full Process name.

• Standardised the headers of reports to be more consistent.

• Standardised colouring of KPI status across Fewzion.

• Changed wording of some warning & notification messages to be clearer.

Fixes

• Was sometimes calculating the wrong Length for a Leave Request when changing the start or end date.
  Now calculates correctly for all edits.

• Was hiding totals for some weekend shifts in the 24/48 Hours Schedules screen.
  Now includes these totals for all visible shifts.

• Was calculating Minimum Rostered On in a way which could miss some edge cases.
  Now calculates by a more suitable set of filters.

• Was sometimes failing to recognise swipe cards when logging into the Leave Kiosk.
  Now handles card swipes more robustly.

• Was flagging some actions in Actuals as "unauthorised" when they shouldn’t be.
  Now is a little more laid back & doesn’t deny authorised actions.

• Was struggling with some calendars with regard to time zones.
  Now takes multiple time zones into consideration.

• Was sending secondary "tap" events on Actuals terminal, resulting in unwanted button presses.
  Now correctly recognises when a single "tap" is intended.

• Was missing some information when building Equipment Schedule reports.
  Now correctly identifies & sources required data.

• Was failing to authenticate users on the server when editing Leave Requests.
  Now applies correct user credentials to these actions.

• Was throwing an error when Actuals had too few Shift Plans in the Print list.
  Now handles variable number of available Shift Plans.

• Was displaying KPIs in an incorrect order on some reports.
  Now is smarter about the way in which KPIs are
