Release notes version 7.79

Written by Charnjit Singh Dharival

We are pleased to announce the release of Access Orchestrate version 7.79


Features and Enhancements

  • Designate only certain admin users to run copy live to play

    • There is now an additional permission that has been added - 05_CopyLiveToPlay

    • Only users that have this permission will see the Copy Live to Play button

    • This permission is disabled for all users and roles by default

  • Skip calling full shuffling logic if this is not required

    • Before Shuffling is executing, an evaluation is done to see if FULL shuffle is required (effectively all tasks that are on or after the task that is changed will need to be shuffled).

    • The task in question is the one that we are going to evaluate and the list is expanded to include other tasks on the same order and also include next task on Primary Resource.

    • All these tasks are shuffled individually (which means rates, shift patterns, resource overloaded, etc. are re-evaluated).

    • Shuffling is skipped if:

      1. If these tasks are NOT causing Resource Overload

      2. Prior to the change, we evaluate if there are existing broken dependency links and if after the task has moved or properties have changed on it this results in NO more broken links

  • Improve SFDC Publish To by ensuring the labels are only refreshed when there are changes

    • Implemented Timestamp for a lot of core tables in Orchestrate and this will help to identify if values have changed for tasks within an SFDC view.

    • Previously, all the labels for all the views were refreshed every single time, regardless of changes being made.

    • In some situations, there's no point to refresh the labels for ALL the views during SFDCPublishTo, when in fact maybe just a few require refreshing.

    • If a all views require refreshing, then the values won't change.

  • Include 'Updated' column within Processes

  • Actuals - Add Works Order Op Step and task Status into the screen to help in easier identification of tasks in booked actuals screen

  • Setup Times for Item Type window to allow to select Item Code, not just Item Description

  • Show number of selected tasks on screen (in Edit Tasks) when holding CTRL and selecting

  • User-specific Language Setting when in MyDesk

    • We have implemented User-specific Language Setting, but ONLY when in MyDesk.

    • These are saved in the database as User Settings and loaded based on the Windows AD that opens the application.

  • Stability fixes and improvements
