12.5 Release Notes 30-Nov-2015

Version: 12.5.0 (Build Number: 5124)

New Features

• Manage Reporting Calendar

  The Reporting Calendar feature has been developed to allow clients to customize the Month To Date period (start and end date for a particular month and year) used in reporting. This feature can be configured through the Manage / Reporting Calendar section in Fewzion. 

Improvements

• Periodic cleanup of Integration Logs

  We are now periodically cleaning up Integration Logs to ensure that the database doesn't grow uncontrollably.

• RavenDB index improvements

  We have combined several RavenDB indexes to help improve re-indexing performance and memory usage.

• RavenDB Upgrade

  We have upgraded RavenDB to the latest stable version to fix slow indexing issues.

• Lost Connection Timeout

  We have increased the timeout from 30 seconds to 60 seconds before the "Lost Connection" message appears. This will help avoid the "Lost Connection" message appearing when the server is under heavy load, as opposed to an actual loss of connection to the server.

• Improvements to Change Notifications

  We have improved and simplified the way we handle data change notifications for associated data e.g. Task Attachments. This allows us to refresh the UI when associated data is changed on the server (or changed by another user), which was not previously possible. 

• Report Improvements

  Added Locations to the Process Plan, Shift Schedule and 24/48 Hour Reports. Added Actuals to the Process Plan Report 

• Report Improvements

  Added icons (Shadow / Statutory / Mainstay) to task descriptions on the Shift Schedule, 24 / 48 Hour and Process Plan reports

• Add Leave Improvements

  The following improvements have been made to the “Add Leave” Feature:
  
  • Full availability calculated if date is valid and leave period is less than 6 months
  • Any leave period greater than 6 months will be added to the roaster, however availability only calculated for the first 6 month
  • Added masking to the screen during long calculations.

• Enhancement to the Webhook Integration system

  The payload sent to the configured systems of Webhooks now include a property called Delta which will give the details of the values that have changed to the data in the event.
  
  Using the Webhook Integration management screen within Fewzion you can now specify a filter expression using JavaScript to control which updates in Fewzion will result in a call to your listening system.

• Priority Tooltip

  Added a tooltip explaining what the S,P,A & C stand for in the Priority field.

• Report Safety Slogans

  All automated reports now have configurable Safety Slogans added to the page headers and footers.

• Improvements to the Daily Shiftly KPIs Report

  The following improvements have been made to the Daily Shiftly KPIs Report:
  
  • Improved formatting
  • Can now be configured to show charts representing “Month To Date” KPI data.
  • The days of the month shown in the MTD charts are configured via the Reporting Calendar.
