• We are glad to announce that QBIS is now possible to use in Danish. Any Danish customers or users can switch on the Danish interface in their settings page.

Resource Planner – Improvements

• If a resource was not already a member on a project, QBIS wouldn’t allow you to add the resource to a project activity from the Resource Planner. We have now updated the software to automatically add the new resource to the project at the same time as adding the resource to the project activity.

Project Page – Bugs Resolved

• It certain situations adding more than one category to a project would not hold the additional categories, this is now resolved.
• Adding project members to an activity didn’t bring across any central hourly cost and price for the resource. This has now been resolved.

Project Invoicing – Improvements

• In the Approved Invoice section and the Invoice History section of a project we have added 2 new columns showing the number of non-billable and billable hrs worked connected to the invoice. This is very useful when looking at manually adjusted invoices to see what the adjustment related to.  Relating to this we have removed the option for viewing the invoice with adjustments as it is now redundant functionality.
• The invoice history page has been moved from its own page to a new section underneath the 2 invoicing canvases on the Invoice Manager page. The benefit with this is that the project manager can see exactly how much has been already invoiced in the project while making new invoices, without having to leave the page.
• We have made it much easier to split fixed priced items i.e. project and activities, than previously. Now there is a new menu item on the fixed price row on the approve time and materials canvas called “Split Fixed Price” which makes easy to divide the fixed price up into different parts and assign invoicing dates and invoicing texts.

Project Invoicing – Bug Resolved

• There was an issue on the Prepare Invoices page when you deselect invoices to preview that the system would still show all invoices. This is now resolved.
• If you added Invoice Text to a part of a fixed price item, the text would not appear on the invoice canvases, invoice report or in the export to the billing system. This is now resolved.

Project Time Analysis – Improvements

• It was confusing when you set the time period for the report to show all data. In the report header it said “All” which leads you believe the report is for all customers rather than a time period.  We have changed this to say “Period: All”.

Time and Materials Report – Bugs Resolved

• The report displayed the cost value for expense items and not the price value if it differed from the cost. This is now fixed.
• The View details button now expands the details for materials and expense items, previously only time items would be expanded.
• If the price model for the project was set to activity member then the report was duplicating activity. This is now fixed.
• There was a calculation error making the unit price of travel km/mileage show the incorrect values on the report. This has now been corrected

Project Result Report – Improvements

• We have added the Project code and department code as new columns that can be displayed on the report.

Project Report Scheduler – Improvement

• The area in the report scheduler page where one set filters and settings for the report has been re-designed to improve the layout of the setting. It is now easier to see set all settings and filters for the scheduled report.

Project Templates – Improvements

• Now when you create a new project from a project template you are given the choice to use the start and end dates set on the template or alternatively enter new start and end dates.

Project Templates – Improvements

• We addressed an issue encountered by users with Project Management privileges couldn’t access the Project Templates page.
• We addressed a problem that some users encountered while trying to display  Global Project Templates.

Project – Business Forecast Widget Improvement

• The Business Forecast Widget has been updated to read the budgeted and forecasted income for activities, when the price model for the project is set to use the Activity price Model. Previously the forecast was using the project dates only when determining income.

Staff Ledger – Improvements

• The Staff ledger has been enhanced to fulfill the requirements from skatteverket and to improve functionality for the managers.
• Added possibility to retrieve historical data for any date range
• Added possibility to filter data for a single employee
• Added mandatory and non-mandatory fields in the export to fulfil requirements and to enhance the usage of the export
