[1526] Upgraded Pulse Agresso Timesheets Integration

For Offices that use Unit4’s Agresso for Finances, we have vastly improved the speed and reliability of Finance data sharing between Pulse and Agresso and in particular around the processing of Timesheet Submissions from Pulse into Agresso.

The processing of Agresso Timesheet Submissions has been completely upgraded:

• Moved all Timesheet Submission processes to use the V2 API endpoints and completely de-commissioned the v1 timesheet submission processes.
• Timesheets submissions to Agresso are processed in a queue
• Set up automatic reprocessing of failed timsheet submisisons
• Systematic elimination of duplicates leading to less errors around timeouts.
• Decoupled the processing of “auto-approved” Timesheets submissions from the regular processing of Timesheets that need to be manually Approved.
• Improved the logging of errors by keeping a transactional record of all the Timesheet Submission requests and responses sent to Agresso so we

[#50608] Text Widget – make editable from Passport

Project Managers can now edit Text Widgets in place, instead of having to go to and open the widget editor on the Configure Widgets page.

Text Widgets are a great way for Project Managers to leave additional information on the Project Summary page such as the ‘Project Brief”, background information or specific instructions about the organisation and workflows of a Project.

To edit Text Widgets click the “pencil” edit icon in the top-left corner of the widget.

Clicking the “pencil” icon opens the WYSIWYG editor within the widget.

After updating the text, press “Save”, and the text will be updated – all without leaving the page!

[#54785] FE: update of the URL to include the current Assets id when opening Asset URL in the files tab

In the Files tab, when you click on an Asset to launch the Asset Details flyover the URL in the Browsers Address bar is updated to include the ID of the current Asset.

You can now copy the URL of an Asset and use this to create a “deeplink”.

• Pasting the URL into a browser’s address bar will launch the Asset in the Asset Detail flyover
• You can use this to create a hyperlink directly to Assets that will open in the Asset Detail flyout.

[#50528] FE: Add ‘Date Ranges’ option to KPI and Pie/Bar Widgets

Added ‘Date Ranges’ option to KPI and Pie/Bar Widgets with the ability to select a custom date range in addition to the following pre-set options:

• ‘This Week’
• ‘Last 7 Days’
• ‘This Month’
• ‘Last Month’
• ‘Last 3 Months’
• ‘YTD’
• ‘Last Year’

[#54717] Hide ‘Resource’ tab on Phantom Projects & Hide Phantom Projects from the RP

Phantom projects are simply shell projects to store time for users who are Working on Projects as Alien Users because they are from an Office within a different Financial Ledger. These users should not be Booked to work on these Phantom Projects – they should be Booked against the corresponding “main” Agency Project.  

The existing Resource Planner did not prevent users from being booked to work directly on Phantom Projects. This meant that the booking was not visible when the main Agency looked at Resource Booking on the Project.

To ensure that Resource Bookings are not made on Phantom Projects we now:

1. Hide the ‘Resource’ tab on any Project that is a Phantom Project
2. Remove any ‘Phantom Projects’ so that they cannot be selected in the old Resource Planner

[#54358] BE: Create a Filter for ‘My Stakeholder Tasks’ in the Task List AJAX route

We have created a deep link to the Task Explorer that will filter the Tasklist for Tasks Assigned to the current User that the User is also Assigned as a “Stakeholder”.

[#54811] Small changes to the Timesheet API

Updates to the Timesheet API:

1) Removed Suspended and Deleted Users from the API

2) Added a ‘last submitted’ timestamp to the API.

This is for support so they can pass this timestamp through the API to the user on when they have last submitted.

FIXES

[#53075] Pulse Planner Project bar showing old Project Type field

FIX – The “Project Type” field is now hidden in the Brand Planner Project Bar if the Office Setting is field “Hide Project Type” is set to “Yes”.

The “Project Type” field is not used by many Offices.

[#54622] Bug: Time Report: Saved but not Submitted show approval date stamp

Fix – Saved but not Submitted Timesheet records on the Time Report were displaying a “Date Approved” date and time stamp – which is not possible as these timesheets have not been submitted for approval yet and therefore not approved.

This was occurring both onscreen and in the MS Excel export.

FEATURES

[#1789] Accept zero value lines

For Offices that use Agresso for FInances, when there is a zero-value line on an Invoice, we now need to submit this to Agresso.

However, before we do this, we need to tell users we are now going to send zero value lines to Agresso by way of a validation modal.

This validation modal will show on:

• ‘Approve’

[54626, 54625, 54624] Addresses in Finance Documents – Client ID crossover between ledgers

Improved syncing of Addresses that are included in multiple Ledgers

We have refined the way Addresses are handled when the Supplier and Client Sync is run in Agresso-linked Offices.  When the sync is run, if an entry already exists in Pulse, and the Address field has been altered in Pulse, we do not update the Address field in Pulse if there are multiple entries in the Agresso clients table. If there is only one entry in Agresso – and there is no chance Clients and Vendors are used across different Agresso Ledgers – then we update the Address to the one set in Agresso.

Always use Agresso Addresses

For Agresso-linked Offices now always use Agresso Client and Supplieraddress from the respective Agresso Ledger when creating Estimates and Invoices in the:

1. Finance Document Builder
2. Preview tab
3. PDF Document

Store Supplier ID from Agresso with Purchase Orders

Supplier Agresso ID is now stored with the Purchase Orders and displayed in the dropdown next to the Supplier’s name in the “Purchase Order to” field.

FIXES

[#54482] FE: Amendment stays open after submit

Fix – When submitting a Timesheet Amendment, after clicking the submit button in Pulse Timesheets, and returning to the Timesheets Screen, the “Amend” button stayed visible for a few seconds. This meant that a User could make another submission immediately – but it would be rejected by the back-end because here is already an amendment being processed.

We now hide the Amend button when returning to the Timesheets page.

[#54818] Bug: V1 StickyNotes.php – GTM Tag missing Environment Variable

The Pulse v1 Sticky Notes Tool was not being tracked in Google Analytics due to the GTM code not being correctly configured.
