Projects Module

 

Enter Work Orders

 

maestro* > Projects > Work Orders > Processing > Enter Work Orders

 

204252

Improvement made to allow users to specify, in the General Settings, Preventive Maintenance section, that the system should not automatically enter the equipment meters when creating preventive maintenance work orders.

This development originates from a client request who wanted mechanics to record the equipment meters right from the start: often, when completing their work order, the piece of equipment is no longer there, and they are unable to record the meters.

216493

Modification made so that the time added to the employee of a work order via maestro*MOBILE also adds time for assistants who are in the Active status only. Additionally, a fix has been implemented to correctly display employee numbers greater than "32767".

 

Project Dispatch

 

maestro* > Projects > Project Costing > Dispatch > Project Dispatch

 

211675

Modification made to reset the Present - Unused status of a piece of equipment when copying a day. If an employee is grouped with the piece of equipment, in maestro*MOBILE, Projects section, the time entry will be performed for both the employee and the piece of equipment.

216854

Modification made to ensure that the resource list is sent to the project foreman without error when a project manager is present on the project and the mailing configuration is SMTP in the dispatch model.

 

Time Management Module

 

Define Trades and Define Work Categories

 

maestro* > Time Management > Maintenance > Payroll > Define Trades

maestro* > Time Management > Maintenance > Time Management > Define Trades

maestro* > Time Management > Maintenance > Payroll > Define Work Categories

 

211608

Modification made to allow the entry of bonuses such as Expense Reimbursement, Commission, Bonus, and Revenue in the Default Bonuses and Deductions when the hours transfer mode is set to Balanced.

 

CCQ Employer's Monthly Report

 

maestro* > Time Management > Payroll > Reports > CCQ Employer's Monthly Report

 

220120

Modification made to use the CCQ Trade Code defined in the Trade Management option of maestro*, rather than the maestro* trade code, when aggregating hours for employees who share the same sector / annex / trade / year or level of apprenticeship, and CCQ trade code.

 

Employee Management

 

maestro* > Time Management > Payroll > Employees > Employee Management

maestro* > Time Management > Maintenance > Payroll > Employee Management

 

220166

Modification made to eliminate the error message obtained when the employee number is included in the linked employee number.

 

Define Unions CCQ

 

maestro* > Time Management > Maintenance > Payroll > Define Unions CCQ

 

220198

Improvement made to add a new checkbox Ignore the Shift When Reading the Rate when the Method to determine the hourly rate is set to Weighted Regular Rate. This check box is used to determine whether or not to consider the rates for the different work shifts when calculating the weighted regular rate.

Previously, in the heavy industrial sector of the CCQ (annexes N1 to N6), the overtime and double time rates did not correspond to the regular rate ×1.5 or ×2. The union calculation was therefore based on these adjusted rates rather than on the base rate. Thus, this development provides a long-term solution to the problem.

 

Tickets Module

 

Concrete Quotations

 

maestro* > Tickets > Concrete Tickets > Concrete Quotations > Concrete Quotations

 

210077

Modification made to display the cursor normally when a customer code and customer address are entered, if the module for US tax codes is not enabled.

 

Ticket Entry - Costing

 

maestro* > Tickets > Quarry Tickets > Processing > Ticket Entry - Costing

 

217976

Modification made to import tickets from an Excel file to be able to use a "Source" project containing a specific Prefix / Mask.

Applicable to multidimensional mode only.

 

Maintenance Module

 

Security Management

 

maestro* > Maintenance > General Maintenance > Processing > Security Management

 

219950

Modification made to correctly apply access rights for a user with the maestro* and maestro*MOBILE employee type of access who logs out via the menu and then logs back in to apply their access rights.

Interfaces

 

XML Interface

 

212532

Modification made to the CREATEPROJECT XML function to create a project that contains a template with configured general ledger accounts.

 

Procore Synchronization

 

217312

Modification made to display in Procore the clients/companies that are fully synchronized with a green "ERP" flag.

Modification made to indicate more clearly what might prevent a new contract from being synchronized to maestro*.

 

Maestro*

 

Importing Service Calls via Excel

 

216831

Modification made to adjust the counter for the next call number.

 

System in General

Modification made to allow changing the company prefix without errors, for all windows where there is a company selection. Applicable to multidimensional mode only.

 

 

Maestro*MOBILE Service Interface

204252

Improvement made to require that equipment meters be completed before work can start, for a preventive maintenance work order. This configuration is available in the Dispatch Model Management option: "Preventive Maintenance and Repair Work Order - Make it Mandatory to enter the meters before starting work".

This development originates from a client request who wanted mechanics to record the equipment meters right from the start: often, when completing their work order, the piece of equipment is no longer there, and they are unable to record the meters.

217744

Modification made to display, in the Reserved Material section, items in inventory as well as stock orders from catalogue for a call reservation number. This applies when the Reserve the Required Material for Return From Calls configuration is enabled.

220154

Improvement made to allow the technician, if necessary, to indicate the start and end times of each time entry performed in the work orders.

For our clients, the aim of this development is to provide a more accurate picture of the hours worked on a work order so that they can indicate these to their own customers. In addition, having better-quality information regarding the hours when printing the timecard enables greater compliance with the CCQ requirements.
