v3.71 Release Notes
Friday, January 17th, 2025
New Features
DASH-1086: Admin > User Activity Log: Show 100 Rows and Add Project Name Column
We have made this admin report now show 100 lines at once. We also added a new column called Project Name that shows you the name of the project that the user was looking at (if applicable - i.e. not in the Admin).
DASH-1338: Registry Setting to Turn Off History Tracking
We have added a registry setting in Dash360 to turn off history tracking in the product by default. Our history tracking feature will be coming back into the product at a future date in a new and improved format.
DASH-1607: Added Searchable Dropdown Lists to Budget Form > Details and WBS Dictionary Areas
We have added dropdown fields that are now searchable for your Work Package and WBS Dictionary Notebook fields. This makes it easier to quickly find what your looking for by clicking in the search box for the dropdown and typing the option you want to select.
DASH-1645: Locked Projects Should Have Some Functionality
When I lock a project, I should still be able to run Copy Project and Backup Project functions on that locked project. Now, with this release, you can perform those functions.
DASH-1732: Add CAM Field in the Schedule Status Update Report
The Schedule Status Update Report now contains a CAM field that shows you the CAM who is assigned to the Work Package for your update.
DASH-1906: Renamed Schedule View & Status, Moved Schedule Menu Items & Removed Schedule Builder
In this release, we renamed the Schedule View & Status page to Schedule Viewer. We also have removed the Schedule Builder from the product. It will likely make a return later this year. We also reordered a couple of the Schedule menu items.
DASH-1956: Signature Approval Process Now Allows Other CAMs to Signoff on Work Packages
In the past, a CAM user could only signoff on a Work Package if they were the owner of that Work Package. Now, if a different CAM is next up to sign off on a Work Package, then they are allowed to sign off (even if they don’t own that Work Package).
Bug Fixes & Small Enhancements
DASH-1816: Admin > Export Codes: Code File Filter Not Showing All Active Code Files
The Code File filter by default is supposed to show all active code files by default. Prior to this release, some of the code files were hidden and you had to click the Show All link to see them. Now, you can see all active code files by default and the Show All link is used to show also the inactive code files (code files not assigned to a project).
DASH-1901: Schedule Viewer Performance Boost
The Dash360 Schedule Viewer’s performance has been improved in this release. The Schedule Viewer used to pull in all Tasks and all Resources assigned to those Tasks all at one time. For some customers, this could be many MBs of data. Now, the system only pulls down all of the Tasks when first loading the schedule. Then, if you have the Resource pane open, the Schedule Viewer will go fetch the Resources from the database every time you click on a new Task.
DASH-1958: Cost Class Curves Issue with Date Filters
When you selected a Start or Finish Date, the Cost Class Curves would not correctly filter the data. This has been corrected in this release.
DASH-1960: Budget Form > Move Resource Assignment Sometimes Losing Resource Assignments
Before this release, if you moved a Resource Assignment from one Work Package to another, it could sometimes get lost. This only occurred if you did not select the exact WBS that this Work Package was located in. If you selected a parent WBS and then selected the Work Package, the system would misplace your Resource Assignment. This has been corrected in this release.
DASH-1961: Risk Register: Risk ID Showing Incorrectly When Editing a Risk
When editing an existing risk, the system would show the next Risk ID in the sequence instead of the correct ID that was currently saved in the database. This has been corrected in this release.
DASH-1962: Risk Register: Trigger Date Not Getting Reset When Editing a Risk
If you edited a risk that had a Trigger Date on it (Ex: 12/20/2025) and then you went to edit another risk that did not have a Trigger Date, the Trigger Date field would still say 12/20/2025 instead of being empty. This has been corrected.
DASH-1964: Editing 2 Resource Assignments with Different Resource Codes on the Same Budget Form Causing Issues
In this release, we fixed an issue where sometimes a Resource Assignment would show that the wrong Resource Code was selected. This only occurred if you edited more than one Resource Assignment on the same Budget Form without refreshing. It was a display only issue. No incorrect data was saved. This has been fixed in this release.
DASH-1937: Clean Up Duplicate Cost Class Names in a Project
Some customers had duplicate cost class names on some of their projects. We have corrected that issue with this release by removing the duplicate cost class from the Admin > Projects > Edit Project > Cost Classes area.
DASH-1597: Resolve Errors and Warnings in Dash360 Build Process
We made several modifications in our code to remove some errors and warnings in our build process. This makes our build process faster and gives us more confidence that we don’t have compile errors.
