Also added fw Client-side platform info in fw Server logs when logging in.

The "Warning" pop-up message:
"You are using the 32b it version of the farmerswife client application. Support will stop by the end of 2022. Please contact support@farmerswife.com or your System Administrator to upgrade to a working system."

On the fw Client 32bit app title bar:
"Support for the 32bit app will stop by the end of 2022"

You can now delete multiple Contacts by multiple selecting them in the Contacts Search (main module bar > Contacts) > right mouse click > "Delete Contacts".

In the Advanced Project Search (fw Client > main module bar > Projects) you can e.g. filter by Projects and Bookings or only Bookings.
Now you can select multiple Bookings and _set_ the new start date for these Bookings, by right-mouse clicking on the selected Bookings and then use "Set Start Date For Selected Class Bookings" from the pop-up menu.

This button will be hidden if "Can Create Projects" permission is disabled.

All fields should now have been aligned and have the same size. Includes fix for Windows.

The legacy "Microsoft (MS) Azure AD" API is still supported by farmerswife (fw); but it will stop working after 30-06-2022, because Microsoft will then shut it down.

To switch to the new "MS Graph API", you need to edit the renamed legacy field “MS Azure AD GRAPH API Endpoint” (old URL value was "https://graph.windows.net"), NOW called “MS GRAPH API Endpoint” and use only this NEW value: “https://graph.microsoft.com” and farmerswife will detect that it is using the new MS Graph API.
All Other settings related to the MS Azure AD Connector work in the same way.

EXTRA INFO: Notice also the “(v1)” text in the renamed field "Oauth 2.0 Token Endpoint" NOW "Oauth 2.0 (v1) Token Endpoint". This is due to MS also now has an Oauth 2.0 (v2) that we don’t support. You need to keep or copy the info from the "Oauth 2.0 (v1)" endpoint info into this "Oauth 2.0 (v1) Token Endpoint" field.

In the Advanced Project Search (fw Client > main module bar > Projects) you can e.g. filter by Projects and Bookings or only Bookings.
Now you can select multiple Bookings and move the Start Date for these Bookings to a new date, by right-mouse clicking on the selected Bookings and then use "Move Start Date For Selected Class Bookings" from the pop-up menu.
This will move the Booking's Start Date based on their current Start Date; e.g. if you have selected 3 Bookings and each have individual start dates (e.g. 5th April, 7th April, 9th April) and you choose as new Start Date the 15th April, they will have the start dates moved to 15th, 17th, 19th April.

When an Ad-hoc Time Report was created through iOS fw app or the Web client, it got a non-zero booked-time that could be seen in the Timereport window and that affected the new "Timereported More Than Booked" indicator. This is now fixed.

If you configure the Activity Overtime on an Activity and you had an Object which was time-reported after you added another Object. and then altered the days, the Overtime for the initial Objects would be wrongly removed. This is now fixed.

Fixed a bug where it was wrongly possible to book an Object with an Inactive primary Object Class.
It will now be booked with the secondary active Object Class if any.
Also disabled the "Edit Class And Activity" option when the Object only has one active Class.

At the top of the list of Actuals, there are two buttons that attach the Actuals to their selected/suggested Accounts. Until now, this would always attach to the currently viewed Budget, even if you had more than one Budget. But from now on, they can get attached to any of the Budgets. Which one an Actual attaches to, depends on the values in the new "Budget" column. Note: If you don't see it, try using "Edit View" and add the Budget column.

If a Budget is linked to a Binder, and an Actual is linked to the same Binder, it will automatically default to that Budget. But you can also change it manually.

Any Actuals that don't have a suggested Budget will default to the currently viewed Budget. This is indicated by an italic font in the "Budget" column.

Until now, Binders have only been used to group Bookings. But now they can also be used to group Budgets. There's a new "Binder" field among the standard Budget fields. Please note that it only shows when you have at least one Binder in the Project.

Budgets with a Binder also reflect it in the Edit Project window and in Financial Reports. And searching for a Binder in the Edit Project window reveals the matching Budgets.

Until now, all Objects in a Budget implicitly used their Primary Class. There was no way to select a different Object Class and use Rates or Activities from that Class.

Now Budget Details have full support for Object Classes, which means that:
- When you add a new Budget Detail, the previous "Choose Activity Or Cancel For None" dialog is now replaced by an "Object Class And Activity" dialog. Note that pressing "Cancel" in this will actually abort adding the Budget Detail instead of continuing without any Activity.
- You can select a Budget Detail, right-click and select "Change Object Class / Activity..." which will bring up the same "Object Class And Activity" dialog.
- When using Scheduling Mode, it will try to book the Object using the selected Object Class instead of just the Primary Class.

To see the Object Class that was chosen when adding the Budget Detail you can display a new column "Object Class".

Added a new option in fw Client > Toolbox > Settings > Server Setup > “Use Film Units Calculations” to be able to display a Calculator icon in the Budget Window, in the budget list.
When clicking the new calculator icon, the “Film Units Calculations” window will be displayed to calculate units based on Film format, fps, meters, feet, images and duration.

All calculations are saved in the Budget and by using the button “Apply New Quantities” in the new “Film Units Calculations” window, the financial lines quantities can be replaced automatically when:

1) A financial line is linked to an Object with a Custom Field “Film format” (lower/uppercase supported) with the same value than the format we are applying. For instance, 35mm.

2) The same Object linked to the financial line has a Unit Name that matches with one of the following (lowercase/uppercase are also supported): Meter, Meters, Foot, Feet, Image, Images, Minute, Minutes.

Then the quantities will be updated in the budget lines, for the format you have been selected in the “Film Units Calculations” window.

More information: https://support.farmerswife.com/support/solutions/articles/17000118614-film-unit-calculator-for-budget-creation

A Budget Account often has a limited set of Objects that are added to it. For example, an Account for "Producers" might be relevant for people but not equipment. But when adding new Budget Details to those Accounts, it would still list all possible Objects in the dialog.
Now you can limit the default suggestions, by going into Global Budget Settings and clicking on the "Objects" icon on each Account.

When an Account has a limited set of Default Objects, you can still change the filter and select a different Object. You'll then be asked if you want to add the Object to the Default Objects for the Account.

Finally, in the Object Manager, exported CSV files now have a new column called "Budget Accounts" which contains a comma separated list of accounts where the Object is part of the Default Objects. The same column is supported on Import, so you can edit the list of Accounts on each Object in the CSV file before importing.

Previously, the Notes for Accounts and Budget Details were represented as icons inside the Description column.
Now there's a separate "Note" column that shows the notes without having to hover the mouse over those icons.
Note that the icons inside the Description column disappear when you choose to display the separate Note column, and reappear when you hide it.

The new added field "Final Length Of Film" is used to apply the quantities to those Objects with an Object Custom Field called: “Use Final Length Of Film” (case insensitive) where the value can be “Yes”, “No”, “All Formats”. This will allow to have a service charging for the final length of film e.g. 90min, whereas the "Film Length in Minutes" could be different based on the meters or frames.

If “Yes” or “No” the Custom Field “Film Format” should match, otherwise if “All Formats” value is selected, the format will always match for applying “Final Length Of Film”.

When you add a Budget Detail, you first get the Object Browser dialog where you pick the Object. In the dialog, you can filter by a specific Object Class. But when you picked an Object that way and proceeded, it was reset to the Object's Primary Class.
Now it will remember how to find the Object and try to figure out which Object Class to use.
Note that this also works when configuring an Object Class as part of the "Default Objects" on a Budget Account. Since the Object was added through a specific Object Class, the Class will be used for the new Budget Detail.

When you have the setting "Attach Actuals To Active Budget" (In fw Client > Toolbox > Settings > Booking Defaults) active, and you create a Booking in a way that automatically attaches it to an existing Budget Detail, it now also attaches the Actual to any Price Agreement that is assigned on the Budget Detail.

When you create Bookings and have the "Attach Actuals To Active Budget" setting enabled, a dialog is used to select which Budget the Actual should be attached to.
However, if you're also using Binders on Budgets, and create the Booking directly into a Binder, farmerswife may now auto-suggest the Budget and bypass the selection dialog.

When you have these settings active:
- Attach Actuals To Active Budget (In fw Client > Toolbox > Settings > Booking Defaults)
- Always Attach Actuals If There Is Only One Active Budget (In fw Client > Toolbox > Settings > Booking Defaults)
- Add Budget Discounts To Actuals (In Budget window > Settings menu)

... and you create a Booking in a way that automatically attaches it to an existing Budget Detail, it now also applies the Budget Detail's Discount on the Booking.

In combination with Price Agreements, the Budget Price Agreements needs to be forwarded to the Invoice & Actuals Views and be set as default so the new created booked Objects are attached to the Price Agreements.

The new Calendar widget used all over farmerswife is used in the following cases:
- Single normal Calendar
- Double Calendars (for start and end selection)
- Multiple selection Calendar

Go to: fw Client > Toolbox > Calendar > and here use the "Horizontal" check-box to set how the Calendars all over farmerswife is being displayed.

Using this so far experimental feature makes the farmerswife Server use much less network traffic while syncing with Cirkus. Instead of periodically polling Cirkus, it will automatically get notified when something changes on the Cirkus side.
This setting is located in fw Server app > Setup > General > Cirkus Connector > sub-menu > Miscellaneous > "Detect Changes Using Websocket".

There's now a new check-box called "Enable Request Error Log" in in fw Client > Toolbox > Settings > Cirkus (v2) > Logging Settings.
When enabled, if a request fails, it will be logged to a file called "system/crk_request_errors.log", complete with both request and response details.
This can be used to troubleshoot if for any reason Cirkus requests are failing. But keep in mind that the log size can grow quickly if there are repeating errors in the sync.
The log rotates with a max size of ~1MB.

This only applies if the following setting is enabled in fw Client > Toolbox > Settings > Cirkus (v2) > "Sync Binders To Subprojects".
When syncing Tasks from Cirkus to Project Objects in fw, it will now decide what Binder to use based on what Subproject the Task is in.

If the Cirkus v2 integration is active, the Object Manager in farmerswife will now have a new optional column called "Cirkus", which tells if the User/Resource/Object has a Cirkus counterpart.
Note: It still does this by comparing email addresses for people and comparing the exact name for Objects.

Additionally, if you select some Users/Objects and right-click, there are now these new menu items "Cirkus > Add To Cirkus" and "Cirkus > Update In Cirkus". They will first copy over any needed Object Classes from farmerswife to Cirkus as Roles or Resource Categories, and then add/update the Cirkus User/Resource with those Roles or Resource Categories.

The logging for the Cirkus Sync has mostly been an all-or-nothing approach, except for the "Bookings > Verbose Logging" option that was only possible to toggle on fw Server side.
Now you can control the amount of logging using 7 log levels:
- Off
- Fatal
- Error
- Warning
- Info
- Debug
- Verbose

The default level is "Info", which logs when something has actually changed and caused a sync, but not much more detail.
The logging settings can be found in fw Client > Toolbox > Settings > Cirkus (v2) > Logging Settings.

It attempts to connect to Cirkus from both fw Client and fw server, and displays any errors in a dialog for easier troubleshooting.

This new Setting "Open Cirkus Links On Web" is located in fw Client > Toolbox > Settings > Cirkus (v2), and when this setting is used it causes farmerswife to open Cirkus Links using the web browser instead of the native Cirkus app.

Until now, since Resources in farmerswife typically represent real people, they were being mapped to Cirkus Users when e.g. syncing Bookings. However, being a User in Cirkus means they're expected log into Cirkus, get notifications, etc. And that they take up a User slot in Cirkus. Sometimes it can be better to sync Resources to Cirkus Resources, to avoid those side effects.

Now there's a new setting: in fw Client > Toolbox > Settings > Cirkus (v2) > Map Resources To.
For customers already using the Cirkus integration it will default to "Cirkus Users", to be backward compatible. For all others it will default to "Cirkus Resources".
Anyone who is using the Cirkus integration but not already syncing fw Resources to Cirkus Users can also safely change the setting to "Cirkus Resources".

If for any reason the automatic Cirkus sync is causing problems, it can now be paused through the menu under the fw Server app GUI's Log window.

This feature can be activated in fw Client > Toolbox > Settings > Cirkus (v2) > "Sync Binders To Subprojects".
When activated, any change (adding, updating or removing) to a fw Project's Binder will make it sync all of the Project's Binders to Cirkus.
For now the sync is one-way, so new Binders added in Cirkus will not be automatically added to fw.

Also, when this setting is enabled and you create a Cirkus Task from a Budget Detail, it will no longer create a Subproject from the Budget Accounts. Instead, it will look at the Budget's Binder and put the new Task in the Subproject that corresponds to that Binder.

This feature allows for Time Reports on Bookings to be synced between farmerswife and Cirkus.
To activate it, go to fw Server app > Setup > General > Cirkus Connector > Time Reports and toggle om "Sync Enabled". You may also want to click "Detect Timezone" to make sure it detects the correct timezone for farmerswife. If you skip that step, it will automatically try to detect the timezone the first time it syncs Time Reports.

The sync comes with the following limitations:
- If you report more than 24h on a day in Cirkus, it will be capped to 24h in fw.
- If you report on a non-booked day in Cirkus, the time will be registered on the nearest booked day in fw.
- If the Time Report is changed on the same Booking in both farmerswife and Cirkus at the same time, it will not merge the results, but rather overwrite Cirkus' version with the one from farmerswife.

Bookings in farmerswife (fw) can have a Booking Name and then Custom Fields associated with it. This is configured in fw Client > Toolbox > Settings > Booking Defaults > Booking Names & Customs.
Similarly, Bookings in Cirkus can have a Booking Template.
Now, when you set or update a Booking Name/Template in either location, it will try to find a matching Name/Template in the other location, matching by exact name.
Among other things, this can be used to get matching colors (based on Booking Name/Template) in fw and Cirkus.

There was already syncing of Cirkus Tasks to Project Objects, but only when they were first created from a Budget Detail.
Now you can create a Task in Cirkus and have that automatically sync to farmerswife.
To get started, go to Toolbox > Settings > Cirkus (v2). Under Task Template Mappings, add a new mapping.
- Object Name: This is the name of the farmerswife Object that will be added to the Project when a new Cirkus Task has been found.
- Task Template: This is the Task Template that identifies the Tasks added to Cirkus, so it doesn't just pick up *any* Task.
- Quantity Field: An optional setting that defines a Custom Field in Cirkus. It then looks at this Custom Field to try to figure out the Quantity for the Project Object that is added in farmerswife. If not set, the Quantity will typically be 1.
- Actualize (Immediately / When Done): Decides when the added Project Object will get a quantity. If "When Done", the quantity will be 0 until the Task is set as done in Cirkus. Then it will get whatever quantity is decided for it. If it comes from a Budget Detail, that quantity will be used. Otherwise it will try to parse the quantity from the "Quantity Field" or just use 1.
- Pick Up New Tasks Added To Cirkus: If checked, any new Tasks added to Cirkus will be synced to farmerswife. If not checked, new Tasks added there will be ignored.

You can also map the Object Name field to a Custom Field from Cirkus. That way you can create a single Task Template in Cirkus and then let a Selector Custom Field on the Task Template specify which Object to use in farmerswife. If a Task's Custom Field doesn't contain a valid Object Name then the Task will be ignored.

When a Project was synced to Cirkus, the tooltips inside the Edit Project window would keep disappearing every 5 seconds.

farmerswife and Cirkus Projects both have a color. In farmerswife it can be set in Edit Project window > View menu > "Force Colour".
Those color fields are now supported when syncing.

When the syncer can't update a Project due to a (403) "Permission Denied" error, it means the "sync user" has lost permission on that Project, and it most likely requires some kind of manual intervention on the Cirkus side. E.g. by adding the "sync user" to the Project, or updating their permissions there. The Project will now be marked as failed and stop being synced. When the problem has been manually fixed, you can open up the Project in farmerswife, click on the warning triangle in the Cirkus section and clear the error to resume syncing.

Inactive Contacts (Active = No/0) are now hidden (in the "Suppliers" fields) when creating New Check Out, New Purchase Order, New Incoming Invoice.

In the Project search (and in other searches) all inactive Contacts are displayed .
Finders on Contacts now will also include Users as well as Resources and Clients.

In fw Client > Toolbox > Contacts sub-menu and in the Contact window top left corner, the option "Show Inactive" was added in the drop-down menu to Show/Hide Inactive Contacts.

The new Container tab in fw Client > Toolbox can be displayed via Toolbox > Settings > Miscellaneous > "Toolbox Menus".

It allows you to:
1. Create Containers and edit them.
2. Delete Containers
3. Display list of all Containers.
4. Run financial reports on Containers.

Containers are used to group Projects from the same Client.

This works in fw Client > Toolbox > Projects and in fw Client > main module bar Projects by multiple selecting the Projects, right-mouse click (or use the sub-menu) > Container > Attach or Detach.

A new Selector Field was added in fw Client > Toolbox > Settings tab > Frameworks > called "Name/Customs".

A Framework Custom Field Template with the different kinds of Custom Fields (Entry, Text, Selector, Date, Widget, Files) can be added here.
You can add multiple Framework Custom Field Templates. These are then available when you click on a Framework Name in the Long Form > Projects tree.

To load the Framework Custom Field Template in the Framework itself, click on the Name - if you have one or more Framework Custom Field Templates configured, their names will show in a list below, for you to select the corresponding one.

Once the Framework Custom Field Template is loaded, the Framework window expands and shows all the Custom Fields added to the Template.

It is possible to change the Framework Custom Field Template by clicking into the Framework Name and selecting a different one. You can also load a template and the overwrite the Framework Name. The Custom Fields will stay.

To print out Framework Custom Field info, they are available in the following Reports:
1) User Report > Events loop/section
2) Object Report > Events loop/section
3) Financial Report > Row section - all Framework Custom Fields from all created Framework Custom Field Templates will be listed below one another and can be selected for the report.

Group by Framework Custom Field in the Financial Report Designer:
It is also possible to run a Financial Report and choose the Framework Custom Fields as Groupings, so the Report will show the results grouped by the selected Framework Custom Field.

In many "table" views you can choose which columns to show/hide. In order to be able to read the whole name of the fields, especially when using Custom Fields, the Edit View window is now wider.
Also if the text on either column exceeds the width then a tooltip, it will appear showing the whole text when hovering over it.

These new fields were added:
- Rows > "Invoice Note From Source"
- Source > From Class Booking > "Invoice Note"

If a user doesn't have Rates permission on all the data in a report, they should still be able to see Quantity numbers.
But since a bug introduced in farmerswife v6.3, it was not possible to see Quantity Totals in any of the Groupings or in the Header/Footer. That is now fixed.

Go to: fw Client > Toolbox > Settings > Server Setup > "Setup Booking Mouseover Info" button. Click on it and move the items you want to see from the left "Not Selected" pane, to the right "Selected" pane via drag&drop, or clicking on the item you want to select.

Now when you click on a Framework Cell inside of a Framework Binder, this cell is marked with a blue frame again.

Fixed a bug where in the Long Form > Object tree mouse-over on a User wrongly all Custom Field Template infos from the whole Framework were shown, instead of only the Custom Fields specific to the Framework the User was booked on.

If you use Framework Bookings and decide to put breaks on empty Framework cells, the breaks now are tight to the empty Framework Cell, even if you allocated User to that Framework Cell and swap them with another User on the same Framework Booking on the same day.

Added a new option to the fw Client > Menu: “Open Film Units Calculator”, which will be displayed if in fw Client > Toolbox > Settings: “Use Film Units Calculations” is enabled.
Only available with Budgeting module.

When Project Custom Field Notification changes are sent:
- new value will be highlighted in red
- unchanged values will be highlighted in grey
- changed values will be indicated with arrow showing the old value (grey) --> new value (red).
This was before not working correctly, but it is now fixed.

This new setting in Toolbox > Settings > Miscellaneous > “Hourline Minutes Increment” now offers the ability to change the standard 15 Minutes time interval to be instead incremented by 5 or 1 Minute when creating, moving or expanding/shortening bookings with drag&drop in the Hourline.

Go to the fw Client app > Hourline > right mouse click on a Booking and in the pop-up menu choose Binder > Change Binder For Booking > select from the list of existing Binders.

Added 43 new Object Icons, and 20 new User icons.

In the Incoming Invoices module, the Due Date column sorted alphabetically instead of chronologically. This is now fixed.

In fw Client > Toolbox > Settings > Display, there is now a new checkbox called "Force Hourline Colors Everywhere".
Checking it will make Bookings in the Projects and Objects trees to be displayed using the same colors as in the Hourline.

And added the Dispatch Object's Note info in Dispatch emails.

When creating a Booking via the Mobile Web Client (MWC) and going to the Involved tab to add e.g. another User or Object to the Booking, users would see 3 tabs: Favorites, Search and Categories.
The Search tab wasn't correctly displaying the Search field and the Categories tab was not correctly displaying any Categories, thus the user was not able to add any Involved to the Booking.
The bug is now fixed and a user can find Objects via Search or Categories in the Involved Tab.

When an Invoice gets created, it takes the Project's main currency. If you now want to send this Invoice in e.g. GBP you can click on the Currency selector field and choose GBP. Now the Invoice rates are shown in the converted currency with the correct conversion's rate applied.

Invoices in the Invoice Creator, Invoice Manager and in the Edit Project window would always display the amounts in the global currency. Now they are displayed in the Invoice currency.
If the Project currency is different than the Invoice currency then the Invoice row will display the amounts both in the Invoice currency and the Project currency.

Now in Price Agreements, the Rate Card and Custom Services/Materials/Expenses will show the correct Project Currency.

In Projects that have a different Currency than the standard one, Rates will show in the Project Currency and below in italic in the standard Currency.

When a new Project was created by using the "New Project From" option, the values in the Custom Fields were also copied. Even though they would never be saved in the new Project, the Notification would be send immediately after the new Project was saved with new values, as if updating values copied from the old Project in the new Project window would be considered as a change.
This was unwanted behaviour and is now fixed.
Project Custom Field Notification is now only sent when values are changed again, after the Project has been saved the first time.

For "Object Class Ranking" go to the fw Client app > Object Manager > Object Class > Edit > open it up so you see the Members.
Click on the sub-menu in-front of the Username and select > Ranking > Other: Type in a text: "acb".
Then you realize that you meant to type "abc"; but until now you could only remove the "Ranking-Other", or click on Ranking > Other > but then the text was gone.
This is now fixed, and it's now possible to modify the "Other" field, maintaining the previous text to be able to change it.

When an Object Class is in-active there is now a Warning when you try to add an Object with drag&drop to a Class in the Object Manager.

In-active Object Classes no longer show in the list of "Add To Class" option on Objects.

Object Custom Fields seemed to have no values when used on pure Object Classes in some places, including:
- Financial Report
- Project Report
- ...and likely others.

This bug is now fixed.

If you exported any Object Class, the "Active" column was empty, not showing Active (1) or Not Active (0). This is now fixed. If you now change the info in the "Active" column for any Object Class and import it again, it will now update the Object Class accordingly.

Farmerswife auto-generates Inventory Numbers for your Equipment either manually or via the Object Import functionality in the Object Manager.
The Inventory Numbers need to consist of only numbers, no combination of letters and numbers possible with this option.
(Inventory Number: 9045556 = works, LHE_123456 = doesn't work)
Prerequisites:
Enable this functionality in the Server Setup > Objects tab > Auto Number Inventory Number: Yes.

Manual creation of Objects in Object Manager
Once the setting is enabled in the Server, farmerswife will auto fill a new Inventory Number into the Inventory Number field adding a +1 to the last Inventory Number given.
Please remember a combination of letters and numbers in the Inventory field won't work with this functionality.

Auto generation of Inventory Numbers via the csv import into the Object Manager
In the cvs file, the Inventory Number column is the U column. In this column please add the word: "auto" (without the brackets) to activate the auto generation of the Inventory Number while the new equipment is being imported into the Object Manager.
This will also work if you import Objects with Accessories or Groups.

When using the "Equipment Management and Tracking" (EMT) module in farmerswife, the Dispatch History per Object can result in huge amounts of data when trying to Report on it via the Object Manager > Report.
To be able to still use the Objects Report from the Object Manager, a new Setting was added in fw Client > Object Manager > sub-menu > Settings > "Fetch Dispatches For Objects Report" Yes/No (Default).

If you need to create Reports which also have to contain the Dispatch information per Object, then you need to enable this setting and generate your Objects Report in manual chunks of max. 100 Objects.
Please contact supportATfarmerswife.com should you encounter issues.

In the Object Manager Report, any Object Custom Fields that were of type Date or Checkbox were not formatted correctly and showed numbers instead of dates and 1/0 instead of Yes/No.

The Inventory and Ref fields are now bigger and aligned on the Object and Object Class window.

Now when loading Objects and/or Resources through the "Load" options into the Objects tree in the Long Form, you are able to choose if you want to include Inactive Objects via: Objects Tree Menu > Options > Include Inactive When Loading.

In the Personnel Tree, any Booking that has more reported time than booked shows the difference in hours.
However, it didn't respect Breaks. So if you reported e.g. 1 more hour than booked, but compensated with a 1 hour break, it still claimed to have more reported than booked time.
Now those Breaks will be subtracted from the reported time. And possibly also from the booked time - if it was a Booked Break.

In fw Client > Toolbox > Settings > Personnel Tree you can "Display Text As In Object Tree".
However it would not show the Task Name even when both Project and Name settings were ticked in Toolbox > Settings > Object tree. This is now fixed.

If you need more information, please contact supportATfarmerswife.com.

Added the following fields to Project and Invoice Reports:
1) Act/Name
2) Number
3) Activity (Or No Activity)
4) Price Agreement (Name)
5) Price Agreement (Or No Price Agreement)
6) Object Class/Name + Activity
7) Object Class/Name
8) Activity/Object Class/Name

In the Edit String Operator window for "Split" there is an Input option called "Split Character". It only allows single-line values, which made it impossible to split on newlines. Now a pop-up menu has been added next to it, allowing to select newlines as "Split Character".

PDF Rendering Mode is now set as: 'New PDF Rendering', as the default mode. Print Designer Version '5' is the default Print Designer version.

You now have two options to "print" from the fw Client application:
- NEW "Print (Beta)"
- "Save As PDF"

On macOS:
The new "Print (Beta)" will work out-of-the-box on Mac using the default 64bit app (Retina optimized and non-retina optimized) for any installed printer. This is NOT available for the legacy 32bit fw Client app for Mac.

On Windows:
For this to work on Windows, two Windows OS related changes must be applied on each Windows machine, where the new "Print (Beta)" is supposed to work.

a) On Windows go to: Control Panel > All Control Panel Items > Programs and Features > Turn Windows Features on or off > Print and Document Services > "LPR Port Monitor" <= Enabled.

b) On the installed Printer(s) to be used for direct "Print (Beta)" > Printer Properties > General > "Location" field ensure that this info exists and is correct for the installed and to be used printer: http://PrintersIP:80/WebServices/Device

Applies to versions lower than 6.8 rev. 20068.

Added more fields to Project and Invoice Reports:
1) From Details > Sell Total
2) Element Rows > Activity, Sell Row Before Discount
3) From Details/Totals > Total Buy, Sell Before Discount

Also fixed "Name Primary" wrongly showing TBD instead of Activity when using pure Object Classes and Activities.

If you selected a Binder in Toolbox > Deleted Bookings And Binders, right-clicked and selected "Delete (1)", it wouldn't actually delete the Binder. This bug is now fixed.

Until recently, Binders have only been used to group Bookings. But now they can also be used to group Project Objects. There's a new "Binder" field in the dialog where you edit the Rates and the Note. Please note that it only shows when you have at least one Binder in the Project.

Project Objects with a Binder also reflect it in the Edit Project window and in Financial Reports. And searching for a Binder in the Edit Project window reveals the matching Project Objects.

Long Custom Field Label Names are now cut off at the right point with the ellipsis and tool-tip.

Added Project Notification: On Project Activation, more info below!
And updated the "notification_email.html" (located: fwServerAppPackage > ("Contents" on Mac) > html_templates > other > notifications_email > notification_email.html) to support more CSS tweaks from template:

Technical CSS info to be able to transform the notification_email.html file:
- Added css class ".fw_project_name_and_number", to be able to apply styles to the Project Name and Number.
- Added css class ".fw_line_start_arrow", to be able to hide, or format the "-->" characters.
- Added css classes ".fw_has_changed_from_text" and ".fw_has_changed_to_text" to be able to hide, format or transform the texts "Has Changed From" and "To" when displaying changes.
- Added css classes ".fw_changed_field_old_value.first_time" and ".fw_changed_field_new_value.first_time" to format the values which are set for the first time.

New Notification On Project Customs Changes (since v6.8):
This Notification allows to notify selected users when the values on Project Custom Fields get updated. The email contains: Project Number and Name and the list changed custom fields with label name, old and new value.

CUSTOMER SPECIFIC: The email is listing ALL custom fields (not only changed). When a value is entered for the first time, it’s highlighted in red; the change of this value is indicated with an arrow pointing from the old value in grey to new value in red, and fields that were not updated show as grey.


New Notification On Project Activation (since v6.8):
This new Notification allows you to notify selected users, when a Project is created or set Active (after it was set to not Active).

CUSTOMER SPECIFIC: Project Name and Number is highlighted in red and lists all Custom Fields (in grey) with their values.

When upgrading your farmerswife system past v6.8, make sure to update the "notification_email.html" if you want to have it working as explained here.
IMPORTANT: if you make changes to any of the "html_template" files, make sure you make them "Read Only" on Windows and on Windows, Mac or Linux, make sure you have these modified template files backed up! Because on the farmerswife Server app upgrade, the installer app will always "deliver" the latest template files from us, which don't have your customized changes. And for the fw Server app if hosted on macOS, make sure to copy your backed-up customized html_template template files back into the new fw Server app package after the upgrade.

- projectBinderFrameworkBreakTimeIn
- projectBinderFrameworkBreakTimeOut
- projectBinderFrameworkBreakMinutes

Updated Swagger documentation with latest changes to v0.8.2

The added "projectBinderFrameworkNote" comes from fw Client > Long Form > Projects tree > Frameworks > double click on the Framework Class > "Edit" window > Note".

And the added "projectBinderFrameworkDayNote" comes from fw Client > Long Form > View Port > Framework cell click > "Edit Note" and here in the "Edit Note" window.

Both are added to the GET /events endpoint.

GET /event/changes to get Deleted Events with 90 days of data retention and based on the "Scheduled Changes Email" data.

Added a new setting to start collecting data in fw Client app > Toolbox > Settings > Server Setup > "Enable Scheduled Changes Data Retention (REST Api)".

This setting needs to be enabled, in order for this functionality to work.
And when developing with this, ensure you have a tool like "mailtrap.io" (no affiliation) in use on your side; as this feature requires the "Allow Mail" (fw Server-side) and the "Schedule Changes Email Sendout" (fw Client-side) features to be enabled and working.

This is supported since v6.8 Beta rev. 20194.

“groupingId”: “parent", = "the parent object" under which "child" Objects, i.e. "memberOfGroupingId" can get grouped under.
"memberOfGroupingId": “parent" = this parameter is used on the "child" Objects, which in turn uses the info of the "groupingId" to identify to which "parent" it belongs.

Only either use “groupingId” or "memberOfGroupingId" per Object. Please be aware, that on "POST" you do not have any "id" info. You can here put whatever, there is no verification going on, if the used parentId info exists in the database or not. It's only used as reference within this context. I hope this makes sense.

This is supported since v6.8 Beta rev. 20233.

The two new “changesSubType” values for the GET /event/changes endpoint were added to be able to know depending on the Project Web Visibility configuration, when an event was stopped or started being visible.

"changesType": "change",
"changesSubType": "web_visibility_on",
or:
"changesSubType": "web_visibility_off",

Now listing also Booking Objects removals.
Now in addition to “changesType”: “delete”, support for the following “changesSubTypes” values was added: “deleted_booking” and “deleted_booking_object”.

Previously, when you used a Rate Card's "Force Apply" function, items where the Object had a default Rate of zero (0.00) would also get reset to zero.
The point of having a zero rate on an Object is normally, that you're supposed to enter the rate manually when you know what it is. After that it doesn't make much sense to ever remove that manually entered rate. So now the "Force Apply" function no longer does.

This also applies when you force apply rates from Budgeting or Multiple Currencies.

If a User with Pending Users Approval Permission (Web Permission: User Must Accept Or Decline New Bookings) is booked on a Framework (this is communicated via a Schedule Changes Email) and then this User (with status "Pending Users's Approval" is removed and re-booked (within minutes) in the same Framework Cell, there will now be no Schedule Changes Email sent out.

If a Framework Name gets changed and now matches the Object/Username, the Framework Name wasn't correctly highlighted in blue in the Schedule Changes email. This is now fixed.

The server.cfg config file contains a list of key-value pairs for certain fw Server app > General tab settings.
There was an old bug that prevented the value from containing space characters. Everything after the first space character in the value was just discarded. That bug is now fixed.

There are 2 new checkboxes called "Timereported More Than Booked" in these places:
- Toolbox > Settings > Projects Tree
- Toolbox > Settings > Hourline

When activated, the Time Report (TR) icon on Bookings will indicate when someone has reported more time than what was booked. So e.g. if the person was booked 8 hours on a day, and they reported 9 hours, the TR icon will have a small exclamation mark on it and the tooltip will say "Booked: 8, Used: 9".

Before, when you created an Ad-Hoc Timereport and then also added a Break to the Timereport, a warning would appear saying that the break is outside the Booked Time (because the booked time is from 06:00-06:00 = 0 hours on Ad-Hoc Timereports).
Now this dialogue will be skipped on Ad-Hoc Timereports.

The "Object Custom Fields" can now be displayed in fw Client > Toolbox > Objects tab > Display.
It will first show the Object Custom Fields Template's Name and then you can chose the fields you want to display.
They will be added as columns to the Toolbox > Objects tab in the order you select them.

Previously the "All" Filter in the Toolbox would NOT include Archived Projects but it could be confusing when searching for Projects (including archived). This is now updated and works the same way as in Advanced Project Search (fw Client > main module bar "Projects".

In fw Client > main module bar "Object Manager" double click on any user to get to the Modify User window.

Opening the "Edit Rates" pop-up on a Custom Extra will now also include the "Name" field and the pop-up is renamed to "Edit Custom Extra".
You can also access this pop-up by double clicking on the Extra's Name.

In fw Client > Toolbox > Settings > Web Share Settings > "Booking Colors", there is now a section with around 10 Booking Color related settings.
These settings control what color Bookings get in the Web Client and the iOS fw app.

In fw Client > Toolbox > Settings > Web Share Settings, below the "Booking Colors" section, there are now two more sections called:
- User Approval Status
- Booking Invoice Received Status

The settings in these sections replicate the same functionality as in Toolbox > Settings > Display, except that they control what color Bookings get in the Web Client and the iOS fw app.

Please note, that by default after the upgrade the colors are the system default ones. You have to reset them to your own colors after upgrading to this version.
