We’ve improved the feature that auto populates time off in timesheets to better handle part-time users

A calculation change now ensures that one day of time off for a part-time user always equates to a full, standard working day when it comes to populating the number of hours of time off in the timesheet

A new user permission has also been created, enabling you to enable/disable the feature on a user-by-user basis and ensure that everyone receives the best possible user experience

There are 2 key updates here with regards to part-time users:

1. The way that time off is calculated in the Staff Availability report has been updated to ensure that one day of time off for a part-time user always equates to one full standard working day

2. A visual cue has been added to the Staff Availability and Staff Utilization reports — in the form of a yellow triangle — enabling you to identify part-time users at a glance

There are several significant improvements to the Projected Margin tab in the Fee Estimator, including:

— The “Additionals – Cost Price” field now uses the cost price of additionals from the Fee Estimator

— The FX rate now uses the rate as per the Project Start Date, rather than the date(s) of the most recent role cost change(s)

— The Projected Margin tab is now saved as part of a Fee Estimator Snapshot

EDITIONS: All, except AEC

If you had the "Stage Dates" feature enabled, CMap prevented you from moving the Project Start Date forward if it resulted in the earliest Stage Date falling before that date. This meant you had to navigate away and manually update the Stage Date(s) first

Now, when you move the Project Start Date and cause a date violation, a pop-out appears that enables you to update the project’s Stage Dates and avoid any instances of a Stage Date preceding the Project Start Date

N.B.  If you previously disabled the Stage Dates feature because of this, please contact the Support team to arrange for it to be re-enabled. Stage Dates enables usage of the "Staffing Prediction Report", so we would highly recommend using it
