A few new changes have been applied to the Forms in Archdesk. 

1. UX Improvement: You can access forms submissions instantly from the same view as answers.
   
   
2. We added the possibility to define forms on the level of process stages. Use case example: You can block a process stage until a form submission is approved. 
   
3. Possibility to define forms on project programme task. Each task will have forms accessible. (The UI might change for this one soon). These forms will especially be used from mobile application in the future by being submitted from the site. Example use case: Every task, apart from just being marked as 100%, must also have a certificate of completion submitted. It must be signed by the project manager. With this functionality we can provide a report of all tasks that are 100% completed as allegedly stated by the site worker, but without a certification, are not yet completed by the company standard and a follow up action is required.

New Data Tables Views are soon coming to Archdesk. The view on certain lists will be changing to allow for more flexibility and customisation. You will be able to save your views, filter and sort by different criteria as well as extend the view by adding more columns. Don't hesitate to contact us at support@archdesk.com if you have any questions. 

You can save your view by right-clicking on the list. 

______

When the change is deployed, go to the List Options and autosize the columns first. Then adjust your view.

You have the ability to right-click on the list view and save columns state for everyone. This action will OVERWRITE their own view if they set up one previously.

As an admin you can also export any view to CSV or Excel. 

From the last system update you are able to decide if you want to allow the tender participants to modify the Quantity and/or Prices on the tender submission package.
Please contact support to learn how to activate these options.

With regard to the Reverse VAT Charge coming in for the Construction Industry on 1st March 2021, your company will need to add a new Tax Rate(s) into the system under "Reverse VAT". This VAT shall apply to any services/products delivered to another contractor who is CIS registered.

Contact us at support@archdesk.com to have this implemented for your business. 

The RFI report has been added to the RFIs section under Projects. You can now export a list of RFIs in Excel or PDF format. 

Go to Projects-> Select Project -> RFIs section in the left hand side menu -> Click on the icon to the right of search box.

A new view of all the expenses in the system is available under the Financials Tab at the top. The expenses can be filtered out by different criteria, categorised and all the related POs and Invoices are visible on the list. 

The Project Schedule Excel Template now supports all the date formats available in Excel. When adding a Start and End Date, no matter what format of the Date is selected, the file will be readable for Archdesk. 

The Budget and Spend columns are now showing the net values to make it easier to compare the generated expenses with the amount budgeted for a task. 

It is now possible to create multiple separate Programmes under one project. To do so, go to Project-> Programme and from the drop-down menu select the Programme you want to update or + Create a New Programme. 

You can switch between the programmes any time you want. The timesheet view doesn't change so when you assign a person to a programme, they will still see it as a list of tasks. 

The Manage Programmes option lets you edit the name of the programme or delete it.
