REPORTS

    •  Selecting a Category selects all eligible Subcategories and Items within the Category
    •  Selecting a Subcategory selects all eligible Items within the Subcategory
    •  Attempting to Create a Specifications Report with no items selected delivers a message that prompts the user to select items for the report Report Settings
  •  Enhanced settings enablement for Estimate Notes Report, specifically as related to Category/Subcategory/Item selection controls

SUBMITTALS

  •  Added search box to Submittals
    •  Users will find a search box on the Submittals page that says "Search Submittals..."
    •  Typing in this box will filter the Submittals to only show those that include the search query in the Title, Description, or one of the Responses
    •  Search is not case-sensitive
    •  Search query requires 3 or more characters
    •  X icon appears in the search bar when the search filter is applied
    •  Clicking the X icon discards the search query and displays "All Submittals"

LEAD TRACKING

  •  Creating a new Opportunity from a Lead is logged on that Lead's Timeline with two activity cards
    •  Card #1 notes that the Lead has been added to an Opportunity
    •  Card #2 notes that an Opportunity has been created from the Lead
      It is noted as two separate activities because it is possible to add a Lead to an Opportunity without having created that Opportunity from that Lead. 

RFIs

  •  Streamlined RFI email notifications, specifically those sent
    •  When the user chooses Create & Send during RFI creation
    •  When the user manually selected to Resend RFI
