ConstructionOnline’s power, speed, and vision are made possible by UDA’s dedication to resolving client requests, enhancing existing features routinely, and introducing new tools often. This cycle’s publish includes - 

INSURANCE & CERTIFICATE TRACKING

  • Added new Insurance & Certificate Tracking feature to the “Team Management” section of the Left Sidebar. This feature is built to track:
    • Insurance Policies
    • Licenses 
    • Bonds
    • Certifications 

RFIs

  • Added additional filters to the RFI Summary Report:
    • Filter by Author 
    • Filter by Recipient
    • Filter by Assigned Resource
    • Filter by Complexity

CLIENT SELECTIONS

  • Added an Internal Notes field within the Details tab of Selection Choices which enables Company Users to record internal notes for organizational and tracking purposes

SPEED & PERFORMANCE

  • Optimized back-end loading sequence for Invoices, improving speed by 75% within both OnCost™ Estimating and Invoicing 

QUICKBOOKS ONLINE

    • Users are now prompted to send a truncated Scope of Work that falls below the maximum character amount or to cancel the integration. This prevents the integration from silently failing.
