Features & Small Enhancements
  • ScheduleSchedule Builder: Added a new feature that allows you to build your own schedule right in Dash360. Add tasks, milestones and plan out your project’s schedule easily.
  • Gantt Chart menu item and page has been renamed Schedule → Schedule Viewer. This is to coincide more with what users do on this page - view the Schedule.
  • Schedule Viewer Performance: Rebuilt the Gantt chart to allow the system to support over 10K+ activities in a single view.
  • ReportingCost Estimate Detail Report: Added expand and collapse sections to this report so you can show and hide sections.
  • Format 1030 Report: Added the ability to Save, Load, Import and Export custom views on this report much as it exists today on other Dash360 reports.
  • AdminProjects → Registry: A special request was made by our customer CMB-S4 (Berkley) to allow them to change the word Contingency through out the application and hide the Override Contingency capability. A number of new Registry fields were added to allow this to occur. Also added the ability to hide every section of the Cost Estimating Form.
  • Import / Export → WBS Dictionary: Added the WBS Name to the WBS Dictionary Import & Export file.
  • Import / Export → WBS Dictionary: Added the Project filter allowing you to export a single project’s WBS Dictionary.
  • Bug FixesEstimating → Cost Estimating Form → Add / Edit Resource Assignments: LCCF reported a bug where values were not equaling the total amount expected. For example, you would enter a nonlabor resource with 1 unit spread across 12 months with a total amount of 300K. The system before this fix may calculate that to 299,999.70. This occurred because 1/12 = .08333333 into infinity. We then add up those .083333 and you don’t get a perfect 1 unit value. Then, we’d use that new unit number to calculate the total and thus the system would be off by a little bit. The bigger the number, the more the miscalculation. The system now handles this by insuring that the total unit that you entered (1 in this case) is actually what it uses. It does this by putting the difference of the .0833333 into the last month of the resource assignment. So, months 1-11 will have .083333 as their unit and month 12 will have .0888343. That is enough to correct the issue in these odd cases.
  • Estimating → Cost Estimating Form → Add / Edit Resource Assignment: There was a bug with the Contingency that would sometimes wipe out the contingency for a Resource Assignment when modifying a record. This caused contingency values (factors and multipliers) to be deleted from a Resource Assignment even when they once existed. This has now been corrected.
  • Estimating → Cost Estimating Form: As an administrator, if you selected a WBS that had no Work Packages assigned to it and you clicked the Process Icon, the Request a Work Package menu option was the only option that appeared. This menu option should only show up for CAMs. Instead, an Admin should see the Create a Work Package and Assign an Existing Work Package menu items. The system has been corrected to show the correct options in this use case.
  • Estimating → WBS Dictionary: Fixed a bug for CAM users that was showing duplicate entries per WBS.
  • Admin → Projects → Resource Codes → Resource Assignments for Resource Codes link: When opening this modal, the dates were not correctly following the admin Registry dateFormat value. This has been corrected and now allows the Admin to display the dates in the correct format.
