 Written by [UDA Corporate Newsroom](https://news.constructiononline.com/author/uda-corporate-newsroom) | August 9, 2021

UDA Technologies continues to invest in the growth and stability of ConstructionOnline™ with regular updates & new enhancements, including - 

#### MESSAGING

-  Contacts can be CC'd and BCC'd on Message Conversations 
    -  CC and BCC fields added to modals for Creating a New Converstion and Adding Contacts to a New or Existing Conversation 
          -  Any type of user can CC and/or BCC Contacts when Creating a New Conversation
          -  ConstructionOnline™ Admin Users can always add/update Contacts who are CC'd or BCC'd
          -  Non-Admin Company Users can add CC and/or BCC Contacts to existing Conversations, only if they are the creator
          -  ClientLink™ and/or TeamLink™ Users cannot add CC and/or BCC Contacts to existing Conversations
    -  CC'd Contacts function the same as To Contacts 
          -  CC'd Contacts are displayed to all Conversation participants
          -  CC'd Contacts can view the Conversation
          -  CC'd Contacts can reply to the Conversation through ConstructionOnline™ or via email, and the response is posted to the existing Conversation thread. 
    -  BCC'd Contacts have different functionality 
          -  BCC'd Contacts are only displayed to Admin Users and the creator of the Conversation
          -  BCC'd Contacts can view the Conversation
          -  BCC'd Contacts can reply to the Conversation through ConstructionOnline™ or via email, and the response creates a new Conversation between the BCC'd Contact and the creator of the original Conversation. 

#### REPORTS

-  Added **Estimate Specifications Report** for 3-Level Estimates 
    -  "Select Items to Include" table displays all Estimate Items with existing specifications. 
    -  Using "Select All" selects every eligible item within the Estimate
    -  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"
    -  If other filters are applied, only Submittals that match the applied filters **and** the search query will show
    -  Search is available for Submittals via ClientLink™ and TeamLink™ portals

#### 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**

#### SCHEDULING

-  Users can now vertically rearrange Schedule Tasks by clicking and dragging the tasks on the Gantt Chart or Task List views of the Schedule
-  Optimized system handling of special characters, specifically apostrophes and octothorpe/pound sign/hashtag, when generating **Schedule Print Reports** for Projects where the Project Name contains one or more of the specified special characters. 

#### CLIENTLINK™ & TEAMLINK™ PORTALS

-  ClientLink™ and TeamLink™ users can now use the Files Uploaded to ConstructionOnline option on the File Upload modal to add attachments from the files that have been uploaded to **Files Visible to All Clients/Subcontractors** and/or** Files Only Visible to [ClientLink/TeamLink Contact Name] **

#### PHOTOS

-  Updated **Share by Email** modal applied to PhotoStream and Photo Album Sharing
