v3.79
v3.79 Release NotesThursday, November 13th, 2025
New Features
DAS-1681: Add Resource Percent Allocation to Add/Edit Resource Assignment Form
Added a new Percent row to the Resource Assignment form that allows users to enter a percentage allocation (e.g., 100%) and automatically calculates the required FTE or unit values based on the assignment duration. This eliminates the need for users to manually calculate FTE values when allocating resources across multiple months, streamlining the resource planning process for labor, non-labor, and travel resources. Also added Percent result to Import/Export Timephase and Import/Export Resource Assignments.
DAS-1680: Quick Status: Add # of Activity Steps Column to Grid
Added a new "# of Activity Steps" column to the Quick Status grid that displays the count of Activity Steps attached to each activity. This column helps users quickly identify which activities have steps configured for status collection, and supports sorting and filtering to find activities with specific step configurations or missing required steps.
DAS-1320: Schedule Viewer: Remove Orange Columns from Resource Pane
Improved the Schedule Viewer's Resource Pane to show only resource assignments that align with the selected activity's timeline, removing the confusing orange cells that appeared when assignments didn't perfectly match activity dates. The Total column now correctly calculates only the sum of visible aligned costs, making the Resource Pane clearer and more intuitive.
DAS-1314: Add "X" back to Select2 Select Boxes to Dismiss Selected Options
Restored the "X" dismiss icon to Select2 dropdown selections, allowing users to quickly remove selected items with a single click instead of having to reselect and press Delete. The previous issue where clicking the "X" in left-hand menu Select2 boxes would freeze the browser has been fixed.
DAS-1679: Cost Summary Report / Cost Summary Resources Report: Excel Export: Remove HTML Formatting from Hyperlinked Fields
Fixed hyperlinked fields in Cost Summary Reports displaying raw HTML markup (e.g., `Link Text`) when exported to Excel with grouping enabled. The Excel export now creates native clickable Excel hyperlinks for single-link fields and displays clean formatted text for multi-link fields, eliminating the unprofessional HTML tag display.
DAS-1683: Admin > Projects > Resources: Add Filter to Code(s) Field
Added filtering capabilities to the Code(s) column in the Admin > Projects > Resources > Resource Codes listing page. Users can now filter by typing search text to find resource codes linked to specific codes. This helps with efficiently performing bulk editing operations on resource codes.
Other Enhancements
DAS-1697: Codes / Cost Estimate Import: Carriage Returns in Excel File Need to Be Stripped
Enhanced Excel import functionality to automatically remove newline characters, carriage returns, and tabs from imported data. Previously, embedded line breaks in Excel cells (created by Alt+Enter or copy-pasted multi-line text) were stored in the database and caused JavaScript errors in the Budget Form and other UI components. All Excel imports now strip these special characters automatically, preventing application errors without requiring manual SQL cleanup.
DAS-1489: Work Package Notebook Fields Missing From CPR
Fixed Work Package Notebook fields not appearing in the CPR grid or column chooser. Notebook fields now display correctly and can be exported to Excel.
DAS-1528: Schedule Viewer Error when Bad Data Exists from an Import
Fixed a JavaScript error that occurred in Schedule pages when viewing predecessor/successor task relationships for tasks that no longer exist due to deletion or data import issues. The system now gracefully skips orphaned task links and logs a warning instead of crashing the page with "Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'end_date')" errors.
DAS-1531: Budget Form > CAM Assigned > Selecting Work Package in Modal Doesn't Redirect Correctly
Fixed an issue where clicking a Work Package in the CAM Assignment modal wouldn't close the modal or navigate to the Work Package in the Budget Form. Both CAM Permissions and CAM Assignment workflows now function correctly.
DAS-1535: Sporadic CPR Loading Error
Fixed a JavaScript error that occurred in the CPR page failed to load due to network issues, browser caching problems, or CDN timeouts. The page now checks if all code is loaded before using it and displays a user-friendly error message with instructions to refresh if a library fails to load, preventing the page from crashing.
DAS-1675: Admin > Projects > Rates > Edit Rate Set: BOE Comments Showing as undefined even though a value exists
Fixed BOE Comments displaying as "undefined" in the Edit Rate Set form when editing existing rate sets. Users can now successfully view and edit BOE comments in rate sets without seeing "undefined" text.
DAS-1690: Cost Summary Report > Quantity Field was Wrong Causing Wrong Calculations
Fixed incorrect Quantity values displayed in the Cost Summary Report and Cost Summary Resources Report, where the Quantity was being multiplied by the number of Resource Assignments (e.g., a Work Package with Quantity = 4 and 6 RAs incorrectly showed 24). The Quantity aggregation now correctly displays the actual Work Package Quantity value that matches the Budget Form.
DAS-1687: Exports Fail with Error If Project has No WBS File
Fixed a JavaScript error that occurred in the Admin Import/Export page when selecting a project that doesn't have a WBS (Work Breakdown Structure) file configured. The error prevented the export filters from loading properly and displayed "Cannot read properties of null (reading 'CodeDetails')" in the browser console. Users can now select any project in the export filters without encountering this error, and the WBS dropdown will gracefully handle projects with or without WBS files.
DAS-1700: Budget Form > Add Resource Assignment: Start/Finish Dates Remain Disabled When Adding New Resource Assignment After Editing One With Grayed-Out Dates
Fixed an issue where Start Date and Finish Date fields remained disabled when adding a new Resource Assignment after editing one that had dates disabled due to historical data protection. The form now properly resets date field states when switching from edit mode to add mode, eliminating the need to refresh the page to enable the date fields.
DAS-1732: Calculation Failed Error Message Showing Sporadically On Edit Resource Assignments
Fixed a sporadic "Resource Calculation Failed" error that appeared when editing Resource Assignments. The issue occurred due to a race condition where the calculation was triggered before all field values were fully updated in the form, causing validation to fail intermittently. The fix ensures calculations are only triggered after all form data is properly synchronized.
DAS-1550: Work Package Report Sporadic Loading Issues Fixed
Fixed an error that prevented the Work Package Report page from loading. The page now handles loading issues gracefully and continues to display available report sections.
DAS-1704: Resource Calculation Delete Bug
Fixed an error that occurred when deleting resource calculation rows in the Admin/Projects area. Users can now delete calculations without encountering jQuery errors. Note: The delete button now only appears on the last calculation row to ensure proper functionality.
DAS-1731: Prevent Duplicate Resource Code Linked Code File Entries
Fixed an issue where the same Resource Code could be linked to the same Code File multiple times during Resource Code Linked Codes imports. This would often cause the Loading of Resource Assignment with linked Resource Code to fail when loading the budget form. The import validation now correctly prevents duplicate Resource Code + Code File combinations.
