what’s new in CommPay for 2007 |
|||
110-70 12/30/2007 available for download - dns version - CommPay WebServer - technician scheduled job lists - the time scheduled has been changed to show AM or PM along with the date scheduled.110-70 12/29/2007 dns version - scheduled jobs list - bulk technician assign - when assigning techs in bulk from the scheduled jobs list existing to-be-returned records were not being assigned to the selected technician. This has been fixed.110-70 12/29/2007 dns version - dns job record notes - notes in the dns job record can now only be added to – not edited or deleted. Similar to econnect notes, all job notes can be viewed but there is a separate entry field for new notes to be added and a "add new notes" button. Whenever someone adds or deletes inventory in the job record a date/time stamped note is added to the view-only notes – a permanent unchangeable record. The notes added show the date, time, user logged, and the part number/receiver caid that was added or deleted. This also applies to deleting to-be-returned, has-been-returned, and RA records.110-70 12/28/2007 dns and point-of-sale versions - onhand inventory report - general inventory detail can now be viewed. This allows for the viewing of all assignments for a single non-serialized part number.110-70 12/28/2007 dns version - when econnect auto-import imported a rescheduled job the job date was being rescheduled in the job record but the job AM/PM was not being changed. This has been fixed. Also, the printed econnect work order was not displaying changes to the job date/time unless the econnect workorder was re-viewed. This has been fixed.110-70 12/26/2007 dns version - RA automation is complete. CommPay automatically receives the RA number emails, locates the RA record and inserts the RA number. Econnect notes are automatically updated with a note stating that the RA number has been received. The RA record is then flagged as "needs to be shipped". A new report shows all items that need to be shipped. The "needs to be shipped" report prints item labels and a shipping manifest for all items that are being shipped. Items on the "needs to be shipped" list can be checked with a mouse click and then processed in bulk with the date shipped and tracking number automatically added to all checked items. All received emails are permanently saved and can be viewed/printed from the RA record. 110-70 12/26/2007 dns version - econnect access - the behind-the-scenes econnect login function has been modified to show an error message when the login fails rather than showing an empty window for the econnect work order.  110-69 12/21/2007 available for download - dns version - release for first half of the new RA automation feature. With this release the user can create RA (return authorization number) requests for dns equipment directly from within the CommPay dns job record with a single button click. This completely eliminates the need to manually create RA requests on the Dish Network Retailer web site. When an RA request is submitted through CommPay econnect notes are also automatically updated with a note added stating the RA request was made, the date made, and the equipment to be returned. The next release of CommPay will include the 2nd half of RA automation - CommPay will automatically receive the returned RA number emails, insert the returned RA number into the CommPay RA record, add econnect notes stating the RA number was received, and add the RA record to a equipment-to-be-shipped list. 110-68 12/19/2007 available for download - dns version - beta tester for dns RA automation 110-67 12/17/2007 available for download - dns version - beta tester for dns RA automation 110-66 12/13/2007 available for download - dns versions - job type report - techncian completion report on spreadsheet - the technician completion report on the job type report spreadsheet export was not showing all technicians. This has been fixed.110-66 12/13/2007 dns and point-of-sale versions - scheduled jobs list - technician bulk assignment - technician block-out dates were not being checked when bulk technician assignment was used. This has been changed so when bulk assignment is used the selected technician is checked for availability.110-66 12/13/2007 dns and point-of-sale versions - a new remote program called CommPay RemoteScanner is available that allows a technician to remotely scan documents or import image files directly into a job assigned to the technician.110-66 12/13/2007 dns and point-of-sale versions - inventory reconciliation report - a checkbox has been added that allows for inventory assigned to technicians to be excluded from the discrepancy list when the report is generated for a store. This allows for an inventory reconciliation of a store's inventory without the need for technicians to return assigned inventory.110-66 12/12/2007 dns version - econnect processor - job closing and note adding via CommPay econnect access is now verified by the econnect processor. Any time notes are added or a job is closed through the CommPay job record econnect is checked 5 minutes later to verify that the notes were actually added to econnect or the job was actually closed in econnect. If neither is true then the upload process is automatically triggered again with a new upload. The verification process will continue until econnect reflects the actual changes that were made in the CommPay job record.110-66 12/10/2007 dns version - econnect access - the "receivers info" button on the econnect access window in the dns job record now displays, in addition to the R00 number the card number, receiver owner (rent or purchase), and receiver status (active or disabled).110-66 12/07/2007 dns version - econnect workorder import - data strings containing the characters "(U)" in the imported record could cause an incorrect receivers-activated list. This has been fixed.110-66 12/07/2007 dns version - econnect printed workorder - dispatcher notes and precall driving directions now print on the CommPay generated econnect workorder.110-66 12/07/2007 dns version - econnect precalls can now be done from within the CommPay dns job record. 110-65 12/04/2007 available for download - dns version - trouble call percentage report - technician summaries have been added to this report. This shows trouble call percentages for individual technicians when the report is unfiltered or filtered by store.110-65 12/02/2007 dns version - job type report - the job type report spreadsheet has an addition sheet that shows job completion percentages per individual technician.110-65 12/01/2007 dns and point-of-sale versions - inventory on hand report - the inventory unit cost and total cost on hand are now displayed on the report. This is password protected so viewing of inventory on hand costs can be restricted if desired.110-65 12/01/2007 dns version - trouble call percentage report - the default value for the go-back days can now be set by the user in dns general setup.110-65 11/30/2007 dns and point-of-sale versions - employee payment summary - technician debits can be created directly from the payment summary window. This allows the user to create a debit for inventory purchases that the tech has charged to a revolving charge account. A debit is automatically created that appears on the payment report and a credit is automatically created that is posted to the tech's account. This eliminates the need to create/monitor separate payroll deductions for inventory purchases for employee payroll payments.110-65 11/28/2007 dns and point-of-sale versions - employee payment summary - chargeback notes have been added to the printed report.110-65 11/28/2007 all versions - employee payment summary - a checkbox has been added to allow for the inclusion of zero-payment-amount-due records.110-65 11/26/2007 dns and point-of-sale version - the inventory assignment and transfer window now has a new tab to allow for the sale of inventory to a technician. This allows for a much quicker sale of inventory to a technician and eliminates the need to use a counter sale entry method for this purpose. 110-65 11/26/2007 point-of-sale version - serialized inventory speed entry - bug fix - the store assignment date was not being added to the serial number record when serial numbers were added via speed entry. This has been fixed. 110-64 11/22/2007 available for download - dns version - new report - trouble call percentage report - this new report shows all trouble calls that were done within twelve days of the original job and shows the percentage of trouble calls compared to total jobs completed.110-64 11/20/2007 dns version - job type report - the job type report spreadsheet has an addition sheet that shows job completion percentages broken down by job type and all jobs. 110-63 11/19/2007 available for download - dns version - web remote access - the technician can now view and print a list of inventory-to-be-returned when using web remote access.110-63 11/19/2007 dns and point-of-sale versions - a stripped down employee list has been added to employee reports.

This has been fixed. 110-62 11/18/2007 dns and point-of-sale versions - job record technician scheduling blackout - if a technician is scheduled in a job for a date that is blacked out the scheduled date can now be accepted with an override button added to the message window.110-62 11/14/2007 point-of-sale version - the dns job completion report has been made available in the point-of-sale version.

This has been fixed.110-62 11/13/2007 dns version - bug fix - RA numbers needed report - when the check box "include not completed jobs" was checked the report was still not including not-completed jobs. This has been fixed.110-62 11/12/2007 point-of-sale version - bug fix - invoice item window - the onhand quantity of the entered part number was not being displayed when a part number was entered or selected from the inventory selection list. This has been fixed.110-62 11/12/2007 all versions - scheduled jobs list - print all technician job worksheets - a print preview has been added so when print-all-worksheets is selected the print previewer will display before actual printing. 110-61 10/29/2007 available for download - web remote - bug fix - technician inventory assignments - dns serialized inventory was not being itemized in the tech's inventory list in the browser window - this has been fixed.110-61 10/29/2007 web remote - bug fix - technician pay - if a technician's pay amount was a negative value and the technician viewed the job record via web remote and click the save button in the browser window the negative amount would be reset to a positive amount - this has been fixed.110-61 10/29/2007 web remote - a new feature has been added to web access that allows a technician to create a dispute for tech pay. The dispute will trigger a message when the job record is entered.110-61 10/29/2007 dns version - the scheduled jobs list now has a routing spreadsheet export function. This allows for the creation of a routing spreadsheet where the techncian employee number can be entered into the created spreadsheet for job assignment. Then the spreadsheet can be re-imported to automatically assign jobs to individual technicians per the employee number entered on the routing spreadsheet.110-61 10/29/2007 dns version - the dns job record now has a checkbox to indicate the job has been modifed from the original imported job. A report to show modified jobs has also been added.110-61 10/27/2007 dns version - the dns receiver speed entry window has been redone to be more streamlined and allow for quicker receiver entry. 110-60 10/26/2007 available for download - dns and point-of-sale versions - email notification has been added to the CommPay Automation to check for inventory needed by technician - if inventory is needed by one or more technician an email is sent to a designated email address that shows what inventory is needed by each technician.110-60 10/26/2007 dns and point-of-sale versions - technician inventory assignment report - filters have been added to the technician serialized inventory assignment report to allow for sorting of the list by model/part number, by serial number, and by date assigned. 110-59 10/25/2007 available for download - dns and point-of-sale versions - bug fix - inventory onhand report - if a store had no inventory but min/max limits were exceeded the report was not showing the inventory needed by the store - this has been fixed.110-59 10/25/2007 dns and point-of-sale versions - email notification has been added to the CommPay Automation to check for inventory needed by stores - if inventory is needed by one or more stores an email is sent to a designated email address that shows what inventory is needed by each store.110-59 10/24/2007 dns version - econnect automatic importer - the dns job status on import is now set to the actual job state of the econnect workorder instead of "work pending".110-59 10/24/2007 dns version - the daily snapshot process has been automated to run on the server at times set by the user in dns general setup.
