New features
Two factor authentication (EMM-2591)
Settings for two factor authentication
It is now possible to set a MainManager instance to a 2 factor authentication by checking the “2 factor authentication“ checkbox within Access Management in System Settings.
You can select the length of the one time password sent out to the user as well as the used characters and expiration time.
It is also possible to choose the method of sending out the password, Email, SMS, or Email and SMS.
Notice that if you want the system to send out SMS, you will also have to configure the SMS settings in System settings page. Contact your customer success manager for further information needed on this.
Authentication flow with two factor authentication enabled
If 2 factor is enabled the user logs into the system and gets the choice of getting a one time password sent in email or sms. When the choice is selected the one time password is sent to the user and he needs to input the password within the expiration time.
Improved date filtering (EMM-2511)
We have now added more advanced ways to filter on dates everywhere in the system where there is a date filtering. Until now the user has had the opportunity to select from specific time periods, like the last or next few days, weeks, months, quarters, or years. Now we have added that you can select specific periods such as YearWeek, YearMonth, and YearQuarter. This makes it more simple to explore and report data based on precise time frames.
If you select “Predefined ranges” you will be able to select the same time periods as before like “This week”, “Last week”, “Next week” etc.
Now you will be able to see more options under “Filter type”. These options are “Last”, “Next”, “Year Week”, “Year Month” and “Year Quarter”.
When you select one of these filter types, you will then have new options to select from beneath. Like in the example here in the following picture, you are able to filter on all work orders that should be finished within next 10 days.
And when selecting i.e. “Year Month” you will be able to see work orders that have been created in July to December in the year 2024.
These options should greatly improve ways to filter data and set up snapshots and reports.
Order of actions and sub-data and custom order/visibility for users (EMM-2830)
It is now possible to control the default order of sub-data and actions within a module. In the edit-form window select either “Sub-data” or “Actions” button and have no user role selected:
Drag to the desired order and click “Apply changes”. For sub-data it will affect the ordering of items inside property windows and within the list:
This will also affect the order within the MM Facility App.
For actions, they are grouped into “No select actions” and “Multiple/single select actions”:
This will affect the order of actions for all users for this module.
When custom order has been set, either for sub-data or actions, it is possible to reset it back to the default:
The option to set order of sub-data/actions and control the visibility has been added for users as well.
For sub-data it is done by right clicking the sub-data area inside property windows:
The the user can change the order and chose to hide/show sub-data:
The sub-data items will then be ordered and shown/hidden as the user defined:
For actions the no-select button is right clicked:
The user can then do the same for actions, change the order and hide/show actions:
“Restore default” options is also possible for users, both for sub-data and actions. This is done by clicking on the “Restore default” button:
Administrators have also the option to change order and visibility of common actions. New button has been added to the profile menu for administrators:
The available common actions will then be shown and the administrator can change the order and visiblity for them:
Be able to generate, show and print QR code/barcode (EMM-2512)
We have done some additions to be better able to support use of QR codes in MainManager.
In the list over Identification codes where you have been able to register your own QR codes and attach them to objects within the system, you can now let the system generate the codes and view them in a list.
Now it is also possible to have a QR code generated for all records from the link that Administrators can view within each registration form.
These QR codes can also be included in your reports from template for Work order, Head Project, Incident, and Task Report. Simply add the bookmark ‘BM_QRCODE’ to your Word templates to create them.
CreateRequestDocumentFromTemplate
CreateTaskDocumentFromTemplate
CreateHeadProjectDocumentFromTemplate
CreateIncidentDocumentFromTemplate
An example how it would appear in a report:
Be able to have a column with link and a QR code to a registration form when exporting list to excel so that it is easy to use these links (EMM-2668)
Now it is possible to have a column with a QR code included in Excel export. ATT: this feature is only available for administrators since they are the only one that are able to generate these links to records.
This feature enables the option to scan a QR code to get the registration form when exporting the list to Excel.
WCAG testing and fixing (EMM-2580)
Some changes and error fixes have been done in regards to Accessability “WCAG” standards. Such as to make color contrast better in some areas.
Other errors that have been worked on are i.e.
Context role issues
Empty label tet
Invalid aria-labelledby
No label for button element
Missing required ARIA attribute / Dublicate lables used
