New Features in Version 16.0 (December 2015)

General Enhancements

A new “greenbar-shading” effect was added to all list boxes to make them easier to read when longer lists are displayed.

The default font was changed to the standard font used for Windows applications. As before, the font may be set to your preference under Setup>Preferences, under the Miscellenous Tab, selecting either the Change Font or Restore Default Font button. This, of course, does not affect the font in reports or forms.

“Posting notifications” now work with the System Tray icon. If JobView is minimized on your computer and another user attempts to post, a bubble will pop up in the system tray, informing you of the pending posting. When you maximize JobView, that the full warning window will appear on your screen.

The Setup > Company Information window has been redesigned, and a setting has been added for a default “Source Folder for Attachments.”

A new message was added to reports indicating they were printed using JobView.

When exporting a report preview to a spreadsheet, it is now possible to indicate the Filename and Folder for the exported file, as well as a Starting Cell Number.

When printing labels, a new option allows marking MULTIPLE label locations, so multiple copies of the same label may be printed. User Conference Suggestion

Overviews

When opening the Accounting Overview (Balance Back Overview,) JobView now asks for the Desired Fiscal Period before calculating and displaying the numbers. The default, of course, is the Current Fiscal Period.

DataView

The Employee Listing View has the option to print the Date of the employee's last raise. User Conference Suggestion

The Job Cost Analysis View has the option to include the GL Account assigned to a Cost Code Budget.

The Bonding Report now has the option to specify whether the Prior Year figures will be the entered by the user or will be calculated at report run-time, based on the Date or Fiscal Period Limit set for the report.

The Job Setup browse window automatically limits what is displayed to jobs for which the user is a either the Project Manager or Superintendent.

In Cost Code Setup, the Force Defaults button has the option of forcing the Description field onto Budget Line Items. User Conference Suggestion

Accounts Payable

The Check Printing window has been redesigned so that Handwritten Checks that are ready to be posted now show up in their own list box.

Additional MICR-style check formats have been added which allows for printing the check in the middle or on the bottom.

Two new print settings/adjustments have been added that allow for printing AP Checks at “Lowest and “Highest” settings.

In the Vendor Entry window, if the box is checked to classify a Vendor as a "S"ubcontractor, JobView automatically checks the "Print Lien Waivers" box. User Conference Suggestion

When adding a new Vendor, "Print 1099 MISC" is now the default setting. User Conference Suggestion

Accounts Receivable

The selection method for Invoice Formats was redone to duplicate the one used for Check Formats and Labels.

When selecting a Customer Number during Miscellaneous Receipts Entry, JobView gives a warning if there are any Open Invoices for the customer. That warning also dislays a list of those invoices, greatly speeding up the process.

When inserting a Job Invoice, JobView now auto-populates the Sales Rep field with the Salesman entered in Job Setup. User Conference Suggestion

Payroll

Social Security Number may now be “masked” on printed EEO Utilization Reports.

Purchase Order

When the Delete button is pressed on the Purchase Order Browse window, JobView asks whether the highlighted Purchase Order or the tagged Purchase Orders are to be deleted.

When changing a Purchase Order, the Attachments and Notes tab labels are now bold if there are any entries included on those tabs.

General Ledger

On the General Ledger Detail Report, the column heading has been changed from “Cost Disbursement” to “Subsidiary Information” and, when appropriate, the report now includes detail about Inventory Items.
