Release 12.0 Notes 11 May 2018#
Summary#
In this release, we’ve added the following features:
Times are augmented with the facility’s local time.
Report viewer reports always show the report’s date range.
Your viewing preferences on grid widgets are automatically saved.
When you exit the design mode of a dashboard with unsaved changes, a dialog warns that you’ll lose your unsaved changes if you exit.
You can now build labor module widgets that display activities based on whether they are essential (a.k.a., ‘direct’) and whether they have a goal measurement.
New Features#
Times displayed come from Facility’s Local Time#
Now, the time values of a facility’s records are augmented with corresponding values in the facility’s local time. These time values are calculated using a new mandatory field, ‘Timezone ID’, which has been added to the System Details and Facility Details tabs of the Organization Admin screen. The Timezone ID field is a drop-down field from which you can select a code from the tz database, which is described on the following page:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones
These codes allow the system to determine whether Daylight Savings Time is observed in a jurisdiction and to account for that when displaying time. The release automatically updates your Organization Admin screen with the correct Timezone ID values, but you will have to populate it for any new system or facility records. Previously, times were only captured in Co-ordinated Universal Time (UTC).
Date Range displayed under Report Title#
In reports you access through the Report Viewer, the Report Date field now shows the start date and end date of the report’s date range. After it’s printed, you can easily see what dates the report covers by looking at the header. Previously, this value showed the date parameter, which did not necessarily show the start date and end date of the report’s date range.
New Improvements#
Widget Viewing Preferences are Saved#
Viewing preferences that you apply to a grid widget are now automatically saved when you apply them so that when you re-open the dashboard with the grid, it’s displayed with your latest viewing preferences applied.
The following viewing preferences that you can apply to grids are saved:
Pivots
Filters
Sorting
Essential Flag and Measured Flag Added to Activities#
You can now build labor module widgets that display activities based on whether they are essential (a.k.a., ‘direct’) and whether they have a goal measurement. Two new flags, ‘Essential’ and ‘Measured’, have been added to activity records in the Rebus database. In both flags, ‘1’ represents ‘Yes’ and ‘0’ represents ‘No’. These flags let you more easily build widgets that can show the amount of productive work being done and how well goals are being met.
Whether an activity type is essential and its goal measurement are set up on the Activity Configuration Admin screen.
Confirmation Popup before Leaving Dashboard in Design Mode#
Now, when you exit the design mode of a dashboard with unsaved changes, a dialog warns that you’ll lose your unsaved changes if you exit. You put a dashboard into design mode when you click the Design Dashboard button, which looks like cogwheel.
In design mode, you can add widgets or change ones that are already on the dashboard. If you leave design mode, which can be done by clicking the Design Dashboard button again, and you haven’t saved your changes, you’re now warned that you have unsaved changes that will be lost.
Failed Logins written to Transaction log for failed login#
The details of failed login attempts (e.g., non-existing user name or wrong password) are now written to the data transaction log collection, which has a record for each user activity on the system.
