Availability engine tweaks now allows Gantt chart to account for raised available for Rental type caused by Sales Orders
[4,938]
Sales Orders with a List Mode set to 'Purchase linked rental equipment (only predicts rental availability)' can fall outside the scope of the Gantt chart date range ( Sales Order receive in Date is in the future but before the Rental list that the user is drilling down on; so it's not possible to see the Sales Orders in the Gantt that are contributing to the availability of the rental type. An option to "Purchase linked rental equipment (only predicts rental availability)" in the Gantt allows the user to see the availability if Sales Order stock level predications are ignored.
Config Book - Feature Groups. Simplify access rights options for areas where ON or OFF only applies
[5,066]
Create/Edit/Read Only drop down editors for feature areas where these nuances are not implemented are now changed to standard checkboxes, with the feature either on or off for the specified Feature Group. Less confusing for user and representative of how the program actually works.

[5,088]
Enhanced Crew - editing or creating shifts significantly faster on jobs with many "Roles"
[4,920]
Users have reported that if a job has many Roles (rows on the spreadsheet user interface) then editing or creating just a single shift can take a long time to process. The code logic for this now speeds this up significantly
Enhanced Crew - expose current the Ctrl+A shortcut for selecting all shifts in an Area, Role, Day or Activity with context menu
[4,977]
Enhanced Crewing - indicate where scheduled accommodations costs are less than the actual purchased accommodation costs.

[4,949]
So a list of barcodes that are no longer needed can be exported from the Stock Check facility or a QBE etc and then imported for batch disposal.
The disposal process traps any issues and errors with the items and so only those items that can be disposed of will be. A full, user friendly report on any issues found during the analysis and disposal is presented to the user at the end, with more export options. Finally, the entire process can be undone as it it logged with notes and user ID should the wrong list of barcodes be imported or for any other reason

[4,027]

[5,082]
Low Memory Mode for RDP & Thinfinity Users
[5,043]
If running in either of these environments HireTrack NX will no longer store its cached lookup table data in memory, but instead will page to disk. This can potentially save hundreds of megabytes of memory usage and if many users are running on an application server then the saving can run to gigabytes. The small overhead in using a page file is vastly outweighed by the gains in overall performance across the system and reduces the need to purchase extra memory to cope with busy periods. If any significant unanticipated performance reduction is experienced this option can turned off by System Admins via the Help & Support page.
Operations Note - add Select column to On This Note tab so that multiple records can be unprocessed from Clear button
[4,979]

[4,830]

[4,844]
POs and Invoices - improved performance in generation
[5,123]
Prep Note - Option added to "Disable Target Scanning".
[4,897]
Although useful in many circumstances the default of "Target Scanning" being on all the time can result in barcodes being assigned to the wrong composite case when Auto RoadCase handling has resulted in a composite roadcase being split on the prep note. Turing off "Target Scanning" means that the scan engine alone is responsible for assigning the component barcode to the correct composite case.
Prep Note - when Case IDs are manually created then scanning to line that needs a new case, e.g. a split gives better feedback
[5,037]
Project Book - option to Delete donor lists if they have no warehouse stages started
[4,991]
Project Book - Option to fill a virtual warehouse from a Global Subhire added

[4,929]
File format is simple: a barcode string on its own line. Could be used for bulk disposals or similar actions
Subhire Allocations - the Quantity that can be allocated to multiple Rentals is no longer cumulative taking returns into account
[4,828]
Now a 3 month subhire can be allocated to many more rentals as the date range of the rentals are used to determine if the Qty allocated is back in time to allow a Qty to be allocated to another rental. More useful for Global Subhires, but applies to Job Subhires too.
Subhires - "Hide Fully Allocated Shortages Indications" checkbox result in short lines NOT being red if they are fully allocated
[4,832]
Even though the availability figure is global to the entire list, if a line is fully subhired then it can't be short and the is no need to draw attention to it, allowing the user to focus on other shortgages
