Time & Attendance > Mobile Timesheets

We’ve made changes to remove the hard coded limit of 4.2mb when attaching items to Mobile Timesheets. This limit is now determined from a setting in Recruitment Manager > Maintenance > General Items - ‘Upload File Size Limit’.

Mobile Timesheet > Attachment File Size Limit Change - V12.10 Patch 1

Time & Attendance > Maintenance > Notification Templates

We’ve added new merge tags for 'Cost Centre Code' and ‘Cost Centre Name’ to assign where cost centre information is required to be displayed on timesheet notifications.

Time & Attendance > Maintenance > Notification Templates - new merge tags for Cost Centre V12.10 Patch 1

Rates & Rules > Pay Agreement > Pay Rate Rule

The hard warning that displays in V12.10 where a user is saving a pay rate rule, and there is a gap between the previous validity period and the new validity period for the same Pay Code, has been changed to a soft warning. This will provide the ability to edit and save a rate rule if required.

New warning for gaps in Pay Rate Rule Validity for a Pay Code - V12.10 Patch 1

Payroll > New Zealand > Pay Process > EFT Pay / EFT Deductions

In V11 (Silverlight) when generating an EFT file, the file creation process defaulted the file extension to “*.*”, a neutral extension, as there is not a consistent file format defined to support upload to all New Zealand banks. In the V12.10 release, the extension on save defaulted to “.csv”, a format that is not accepted by all NZ banks. To fix this issue, an enhancement included in the Patch 1 release provides users with the ability to add an extension at the time of file generation, so the Bank’s supported extension can be applied as required.

NZ Payroll > Pay Process > EFT Pay / EFT Deductions File Creation change - V12.10 Patch 1

Job Template - where a user is attempting to make a job template inactive, if the template is linked to Filled/Closed or Vacant Jobs a new warning message will display so the user can make an informed decision. “The Job Template's rates are linked to jobs where the job's Start Date/End Date intersects with today, and the Job's status is Filled/Vacant or Closed. Click Yes to proceed and make this template unavailable for selection on future jobs (you will still be able to manage the rates from an inactive job template). Click No to cancel.”

E-00000727

Job > Permanent - the Total Package & Base Salary merge tag fields were displaying up to six decimal places. These fields on a Permanent job have been changed so only two decimal places can be entered and will be stored, which will ensure that the merge tags only display two decimal places.

Maintenance > User

When creating portal users of Candidate and Client Contact types, the users are forced to go through a pop-up, look-up screen in order to search for Candidates or Client Contacts who do not have a portal user already created. The problem with that popup screen is that it pre-loads the search results with ALL records which is very inefficient where there are large volumes.

This issue has been resolved.

Diary - where the Start or End time entered in a Leave Request is for part of an hour (ie 08:30), the times displayed in the Candidate Diary are incorrect. In the Candidate Diary:

  • the Start Time is displaying only the hour, ie 08:30 is displayed as 08:00

  • the End Time is displaying the next hour, ie 12:30 is displayed as 13:00

FPB-89

Recruitment Manager > Client

When changing the Parent on a Client record, there is no job order validation to check if any jobs have Agreements with Hierarchy of Parent Client assigned.   This allows the Parent to be changed even when there is a job with an Agreement assigned where Hierarchy is Parent Client. 

A validation message has been added to advise that a Parent cannot be changed as a Job Order exists where the agreement is assigned at the Parent Client level.

11.39P1; 11.38; 11.37; 11.36

FPB-264

Recruitment Manager > Client Contact

A Client Contact must be linked to at least 1 Client. When a Contact is linked to only 1 Client, if you try to remove the link using the Remove option, in either the Client or Contact record, you get a "Contact record is in use" message even if the Contact has never been used. This is very confusing to the user. 

Where this occurs a more informative message will display “The Client/Contact link cannot be removed as this is the only link for this contact. If contact is no longer required, you need to delete the contact.”

Recruitment Manager > Job Order

Permanent Job: For the Total Package & Base Salary fields on a Permanent job, the UI lets the user enter up to 4dp which is then rounded to 2dp. However, these amounts are being stored in the database with 6dp resulting in these amounts being displayed with 6dp when merge tags {{Perm Total Package}} and {{Perm Base Salary}} are used

A change has been applied to only support storage to 2 decimal places.

11.39P1; 11.39; 11.38

FPB-449

Recruitment Manager > Job Order

The merge tag {{Job Order.Filled Candidate Name.Candidate Date of Birth}} is displaying dates in US mm/dd/yyyy format. This occurs if the merge tag is included in a document template or in an email.

Work History Tab - where Reference Checked is set to ‘No’, the system is finding Candidates that have Work History items where the Work History record’s 'Reference Checked' field is set to 'No', however some of these Candidates have one or more additional Reference Checks set to 'Yes'.   This is not correct, the criteria is about finding Candidates that have not had any reference checks at all.

This issue has been resolved.

Recruitment Manager > Search Candidate

Custom Fields  Tab - searching for candidates using custom fields of date type produces an error (red box pops up in the left bottom corner) if there is an incorrect date stored in the database against that Custom Field, for any of the Candidates in that database.
