Documents
The display of documents available for printing for a particular event depends on the risk level of the event and the documents you have selected for that risk level in Configuration. There is now a second level of choice covering the display of documents.
Step 1 : Ensure that, as a user, you have been given the new right to ‘Can adjust visible documents’. (Do this via Configuration / Users)
Step 2 : Go to a particular event and click on the ‘Documents’ button. Initially, all of the available documents (depending on the risk level) will be displayed. However, now, with the new right, you will also see a new button on the screen which allows you to sub-select those documents which you wish to apply to the event in question. Click on a document button to changer its status between red and green.
A second change relating to documents is found on the ‘Our documents’ tab under the documents display.
If you select the new third alternative then those external documents selected for this event will be displayed for printing. External documents are those created OUTSIDE this package e.g. pdf and Word documents.
If you have been given the new document right (Under Configuration / Users) then you will also see the yellow button above. Clicking on that button reveals a list of pre-selected documents from which you can chose for this event.
Select documents from the right hand list and they will be added to the left hand list – for this event.
How did the documents get on to the right hand list? This is done via Configuration / Other default settings, as shown below. You can add as many external documents as you like to this list and then, under a particular event, select those which you wish to appear on the selection list for that event.
2. Signposts
AQ new feature has been added to each event – signposts. These are found under a new fourth tab on the event’s ‘home’ screen.
Signposts are a set of step towards the completion of each event and these can be managed, at the event level, via this new screen.
In the illustration above, the default set of signposts is shown, along with the ‘default set’ dates by which they are due to be ticked off. The third column shows either ‘Yes’ of ‘No’ to signal the reaching of each signpost.
Signposts for the event may be deleted, edited, or added and the dates may be changed by editing. A click in the third column will toggle it between ‘yes’ and ‘No’.
The default set of signposts, which initially appear on each event, is determined via configuration, uncer Configuration / Other default settings. This is shown below.
You may add new default signposts, or edit existing ones, or delete existing ones. The number in the ‘Due’ column is the number of days prior to the event’s start date (a negative number) or after the event’s End date ( a positive number). The absence of a number indicates that no particular date is associated with this signpost.
The final step, as yet not completed, is to add these signposts to the calendar printing routine under ‘Printing utility’ / ‘Calendar’. This will be done shortly.
