AyaNova 4.1.5 Fixes:

  • issue fixed where Generator responds with error “Source workorder type is not valid” that was due to the Generator attempting to generate a PM Template into a workorder
  • issue fixed where on Log Out and log back in, grid displaying would not neccesarily display until manually refreshed
  • issue fixed where would get error “An error occurred while parsing EntityName. Line 26, position 80.” if used List All Workorders on a client that had & symbol in their name
  • fixed issue whereby unable to open an entry screen from the grid after using List All Workorders feature
  • removed Active checkbox showing in Preventive Maintenance Template to prevent confusion, as a PM made from a PM Template is always by default set to inactive until the user specifically states is active.
  • fixed issue where a PM made from a PM Template was not previously transferring the Workorder Status selection and Generate Time Span and Threshold Time Span from the PM Template to the new PM
  • fixed issue whereby error message “Property value is not valid” and “Error: User is not authorized to change a Global or the object or field being changed currently is read only.” would occur if originally a user without rights to Global Settings had used the Log Out menu option and than a user with rights had logged in to change Global Settings.
  • previously if attempted to enter in a Service Workorder Start Number via Global Settings that was lower than the existing number, would get the error “Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.”, now it will just reset itself back to the original number - because you cannot enter a starting number lower than that already used.
  • removed filter icon on columns that have not and are not filterable - Shipped By column in Service Items and other grids; User column in Travel grid; Prepared By in Scheduled Users, Labor, Travel in Quotes navigation pane;
  • Vendor Name was actually identified in a summary or detailed report template for selection as “Unique Identification Number”. Have now added the “Vendor” selection to these report templates dataset and kept the Unique Identification Number so as not to affect existing reports for users.
  • fixed issue where printing custom fields, postal address fields or the Notes field via a detailed report template from the Vendors grid resulted in error text ErrorReadingValueException displaying.

  • now when a new Schedule Marker is created where you had already selected a set start and end time for a specific schedulable user, that scheudlable user is already selected for you as the Source in the Schedule Marker
  • now notification for subsribed “Workorder item part request – parts received” is sent to the scheduled user in that workorder from where the part was requested, as well as the user who actually requested the part (was logged in and requested the part in the workorder).
