To use this feature, right-click on a timesheet cell and tick the Do Not Invoice option - the time booked will appear pink to indicate the charge rate has been set to $0. In the Accounts sheet any timesheet cell flagged as 'do not invoice' will not appear. LIMITATION: in the Accounts Sheet, Actual Hours includes ALL hours booked regardless of the 'do not invoice' flag." |
837.28 | Issue | EC#4655 | Invoices | Properly itemise expenses on the printed invoice when there are multiple entries of the same expense type. | |
837.21 | Change | EC#4640 | Security | Add new permission to allow users to edit Timesheet Activities. | Write access to various subtabs on stages is protected from the User security group.

837.19 | New Feature | EC#4596 | Accounts | Allow a project to be invoiced in another currency. | "eTrack allows projects to be tracked in other currencies but invoicing is done in the default currency.

834.04 | Issue | EC#4438 | File Management | Stripped invalid characters from file path when creating folders on the server. | When saving folders/documents the file path on the server is a direct match to the tree path. eTrack allows special characters to be included in tree item names but these are not allowed by Windows so the folder creation fails in this case. Stripping the invalid character maintains naming flexibility while resolving this issue. |

833.21 | Issue | EC#4141 | Reports | When a report is exported to Excel, negative currency values do not have brackets so Excel can apply the Currency format and include the values in formulas. | |

823.26 | Change | EC#4003 | Invoices | Invoice To Date calculation | Previously eTrack calculated the $Invoice To Date value (on the Project > Budget tab in the Price Structure table) when an invoice was printed. In the interim between creating and printing invoices this value did not match the total $Invoice on the Account Sheet. Now the $Invoice To Date value is calculated at the time the Invoice is created. Should you wish to maintain the old functionality add this to eTrack settings under [Options] InvoiceToDateCalc=1 With this setting only invoices with Invoice Status of ‘Printed’, ‘Exported’ or ‘Printed and Exported’ will be included in the $Invoice To Date value. A new hint on the $Invoice To Date column says which invoices are included based on the Option. |

Additionally the displayed list of notes can be filtered by note type. It will default to ‘Progress’ after login. |
822.09 | Change | none | General | Date Types | Many Date-type fields throughout eTrack have been changed so that dates can now only be selected from the calendar control and not typed directly into the field. Click or double-click in the field to display the calendar. |
822.09 | Issue | EC#3908 | General | Improved the functioning of Information Item date fields | The values in Information Items fields that are date types do not change when the user clicks in the field. Users without write access to information items cannot edit the value of dates. The ‘clear’ option on the right-click menu works correctly. Date fields have been changed so that dates can now only be selected from the calendar control and not typed directly into the field. Click or double-click in the field to display the calendar. |
822.08 | New Feature | EC#3823 | Reports | Pre-filtering for custom reports via Additional Criteria and Save Criteria option to set default search criteria for all users. | PRE-FILTER Added Additional Criteria fields to the Report Gallery search criteria so you can pre-define the filtering of the report results before running the report. The ‘column’ dropdown lists the report columns that can be selected for filtering, including information items. Select a column then select an ‘operation’ and a ‘value’. For date ranges, you must define the start date in one operation followed by the end date in the next operation. Pre-filtering can result in significant speed-ups when running reports. Limitation: A context specific list of values (for the Value picklist) cannot be determined prior to running the report. The reason is that a database field may be used for different Types and thus appear on multiple screens throughout eTrack. Note that a field is not identified by its label on the screen but the underlying definition in the code. In some cases the field is used widely and the picklist is very large as it will contain all possible values across all applications of the field. You are not restricted to selecting an item from the picklist - the field is editable so you can type the value you wish to search for, however it must be an exact match to be found. SAVE CRITERIA The Save Criteria button allows an administrator to set additional criteria for the report so that when other users login these are the default. The other users can run the report using different criteria if they wish but they cannot save new defaults. If a user changes the criteria when they logout and in again the saved criteria will display again. Any administrator who logins and removes the additional criteria will be prompted if they want to make these the new defaults. Save Criteria button is controlled by security group permission #22 Access to Report Writer (usually on for Admin only). |
822.01 | Change | none | Invoices | Invoice Date | On Invoices tab, Date To Invoice / Date Printed column has been renamed Invoice Date, date defaults to invoice entry from Account Sheet (if multiple invoice entries with different dates then newest date is used and all invoice entries are set to that date), date can be edited but not cleared (Clear Date removed from right-click menu), printing an invoice does not change the Invoice Date. |
822.01 | Issue | EC#3949 | Invoices | Invoice date in Account Sheet reflects changes made in Invoices tab | When the Invoice Date of an invoice is changed on the Invoices tab, the new date is reflected against all of the invoice entries in the Account Sheet that apply to that invoice. |
822.01 | Issue | EC#4251 | Schedule | Resolution for Actuals not being displayed in Schedule | In previous releases, when ticking the checkbox in the Schedule Options to display Actuals, a refresh was done but Actual values were not being loaded from the database. This was a bug introduced due to the reversing of a flag that was not changed in one place in the code. There was a work around: tick to include Actuals in the Schedule Open dialog. If Actuals had previously been loaded in the session such as by looking at a timesheet or running a report, then they would be displayed, which explains why it appears intermittent. |
822.01 | New Feature | EC#4048 | Invoices | Invoice Print Preview | The Print Preview feature allows you to see the invoice in the selected Invoice template without triggering any of the actions that printing an invoice does ie: generating an invoice number, changing Invoice Status or updating the Invoice To Date $ value. On the Invoices tab, right click on an invoice and select Print Preview from the popup menu. |
822.01 | New Feature | none | Invoices | Invoice Status | A new column has been added to the Invoices tab called Invoice Status. When an invoice is created Invoice Status will default to ‘Approved’. Invoices cannot be printed or exported when the Invoice Status is ‘Not Approved’. You can manually change the status from ‘Approved’ to ‘Not Approved’ however should you wish new invoices to default to ‘Not Approved’ please add this to eTrack settings under [Options] DefaultInvoiceStatus=0 The Invoice Status will automatically change as follows: • ‘Printed’ when the invoice is printed • ‘Exported’ when the invoice is exported • ‘Printed and Exported’ when the invoice has been both exported and printed (in either order) After an invoice has been printed the status cannot be manually changed. After an invoice has been exported the status cannot be manually changed however if you clear the batch number the status will return to ‘Approved’. NOTE: All existing Invoices will have a status of ‘Approved’ even though they may have been already printed and/or exported. |

To allow users to delete existing RFIs untick #4 Delete Protected. 4.

817.08 | Issue | EC#4085 | Timesheets | Can now book time to Admin Tasks when Security Group permission #193 is ON - this restricts time being booked in the timesheet when ETC is 0. | |
817.03 | Issue | EC#4031 | Timesheets | ETC reduction corrected where ETC is set at a stage level. | ETC now reduces correctly in the case where no people are assigned and ETC is set for the stage in the budget grid, then time is booked and user goes to stage details tab. This fixes the error where ETC became 0 when switching screens after time was booked. |
817.03 | Issue | EC#4040 | Timesheets | Stage gets ETC equal to time booked when time is booked to stage with no ETC and then stage is deleted from timesheet | corrected the processing for increasing ETC when user reduces/deletes time booked to a stage that has 0 ETC |
