Anterra Action Items

7171: Add Project Manager Parameter to Action Item Grid

Procore clients requested that we add a parameter on our Action Item grid for Project Manager. The result is that you can now filter the grid by Project Manager. The result is that the grid displays all of the action items for jobs that the selected manager is the Project Manager for. This means all of the action items for the related jobs appear, the items are not filtered to the items assigned to that Project Manager. If you would like to filter the Action item grid to the items assigned to a Project Manager select the Project Manager's name in the Assignee parameter.




Service Management:  

7093:   Add last work date to SM Work Order profitability grid

We have added a column for Last Work Date on the Work Order Profitability grid, this shows the last date a technician recorded hours on the work order.



7081: GL to SM reconciliation report

This report reconciles GL to SM revenue. It has a menu role security of report testing so you can test it before it appears on your menus, please contact us if you need assistance to activate and test it.
Purpose:  Service Management Operation Managers run reports out of Service Management showing monthly revenue. Revenue on Service Management reports can be different from the revenue on a GL income statement, in some cases by many thousands of dollars. The difference is caused by invoices voided in AR outside of the reporting period and by non SM transactions in the GL revenue account for Service Management. 

This report balances GL to SM using the following sections:
Invoices from Service Management in Period                                       AAAAA
LESS Invoices Voided with Invoice Date in Period                                BBBBB 
    
LESS Invoices Voided with Invoice Date Outside of Period                  CCCCC
Other GL Transactions                                                                              DDDDD
Total Amount - Compared to GL Revenue Account                               EEEEEE               EEEEEE

All Modules:  Persisted Grids

7054:   Force refresh on all persisted grids

All pivot grids have had a new button added - Force Refresh.

The purpose of this button is to ensure you have the latest data in your grid. EXAMPLE:  project managers are busy entering forecasts for a month-end, you have the Anterra Margin Gain Erosion pivot grid open. When you open the grid the values are loaded into your browser. If project managers are entering forecasts you might want to ensure you have the latest Forecast Cost at Complete values. Click on the Force Refresh button to update the grid with all entered values in the system.



6322:  Show count of grouped items on  Show count of grouped items on all on pivot table groupings

All pivot grids  now show you the number of items for each pivot table group.

In this example the Margin Gain Erosion grid is grouping jobs by Division, then Project Manager. The General Construction division has 11 jobs, the first PM has 4 out of the 11, the second PM has 1 job, the third PM has 4 jobs. 




Dashboards:

Add unit testing to Construction Widgets

Anterra has added automated testing for construction widgets to ensure the number of items displayed on a widget is the same when you drill to a detailed grid. The exception is Procore widgets where more than one person may be assigned as the owner of an action item, we count that item as assigned to each item owner.


Data Synchronization

7208:   Update status available on the menu bar

See the status of your data update and your cube update (update of Anterra for the data you entered like Job Forecasts and Work In Progress.
