4.7.02 Immediate Access to Changing Notes

August 1st, 2014 • By: Schedule3W
  • In a change operation, the Notes area on the Recurring screen is now immediately live (i.e. you no longer have to tick This day only or All first).
  • Schedule3W now enforces the database has at least version 4.3.15 activated as a minimum Schedule3W version. See Download page for details.
  • New Reviewing Coverage / Shifts Filled overview has been added. Access by Help>Index and enter unfilled.
  • Emp/Loc option to set multiple employees or locations in one operation now supports using the same selection for the next employee/location.

4.7.01Web View Automatic Working In Filter

July 25th, 2014 • By: Schedule3W
  • New Web View 3.3.4 features:
    • Special feature for Two Level Databases with multiple Working locations (e.g. branches):
      • When a Location filter is applied, Schedule3W will now automatically only include service points for people working in one of the selected Working locations and only includes Sick, Vacation and Away type shifts for people with a home location in the Location filter.
        • This excludes shifts of selected locations (e.g. lunch) of people that sometimes work in your branch but on that day are working at another branch.
    • Help screen’s format is now preserved during a copy/paste.
    • If your employee PCs have a different IP range than your public PCs, you can now simplify employee access to Guest mode with automatic authentication by IP# range (eliminates the password). There is a small charge for this feature.
  • Tools>Reports>Database View: Employee by Location hours now supports reporting on This or Last Employee Year (i.e. the specific Start Date set in Edit>Staff). This simplifies monitoring any annual maximum hour limit (e.g. retired state employees returning to work).
  • Change Location once again retains external notes on This Day Only shifts as was done before 4.6.22.

  • Tools>Maintenance>Show Tab>[Installs] table now has sortable columns and its Last Used column is now also updated by the last start of the Web Server.
  • Web View support for Home Location labels in Employee Formats has been restored.
  • Clicking a second shift in Web View (i.e. to see details) now automatically brings the popup to the front.
