General

 

New Feature

Component

All Views

Issue / Request

Allow users to save which view they want to launch on initial login.

Created a new tab in the Asset List view called "Create Multiple Assets".

Updated

Component

Module Dashboard / Percentage of Audits Failed Chart

Issue / Request

The result where the total count doesn't match the completed audits in the group list & audit dashboard

Resolution

The issue was caused by rooms in the same area with different organisation value. The results were being counted twice. Improved the query used by the "Percentage of Audits Failed" chart to only count the audit once regardless if the rooms in the audit belong to x number of organisations. Also improved the drilldown on the chart to go to the Audit Group List instead of the Monitoring Results List.

Ref. No.

S-61959

 

New Feature

Component

Monitoring Elements / Monitoring Elements List / Cleaning Area Times for Period Report

Issue / Request

Improve the 'cleaning timing' calculation mechanism on the fmfirst by moving the cleaning frequency away from the Risk level and into the elements view and allow each element to have a frequency of clean set for each risk level.

Resolution

- Added the Cleaning Frequency tab in the Monitoring Elements view so users can specify different cleaning times per risk level on the monitoring element. E.g. the cleaning frequency for FR1 areas may be shorter than the FR6 areas.

- Amended the Cleaning Area Times for Period Report to use the new risk cleaning frequencies set against the elements.

Ref. No.

Re-designed the Physical Location view to look more like the Location structure lookup that the users have grown accustomed to. We have converted the 'tree' panel to a table grid, showing the location code, path, and active flag. The grid can be filtered by tier (e.g. site, building, level, area). There's only one form at the bottom for editing the selected tier OR adding a child tier.

Created a new Survey Template Schedules view which extracted the "Interval Frequency" out of the Survey Template as its own record for better planning of the survey frequency. Users can create a schedule for each of the survey templates and allocate it to different locations and specify a next due date which will get updated each time the survey is automatically generated by the nightly schedule process. The view offers a "Projections" tab which displays the dates that the survey is due to come out based on its frequency. The view will also have a "History" tab that displays all the generated survey for the schedule which the user can select and drill down to the Survey Information view.

Resolution

The "Reported By (Email) " field in Task Helpdesk now acts as a combobox which will autopopulate with suggested email addresses when a matching set of characters is entered.
