Custom Field Type: Documents and Photos
We’ve added the ability to upload documents and photos to custom field types on Tasks
This capability opens up a world of potential uses—like a field for before & after photos, contracts, and specification sheets.
The uploaded photos can then be displayed within task emails, layouts (e.g. task and invoice layouts), and reports.
Field: Schedule Map
Field users can quickly see their day at a glance with our new Schedule Map view
This neat overview conveniently plots your field technician’s tasks, quotes, and periodics for the day onto a map to help them easily see their day at a glance.
Field: Asset List update
We’ve rejigged our Asset List to make it easier for you to sort through
As with our recent updates to the Compliance area (more information in the update below), the full set of assets will now display by default.
These can then be further sorted using the Categories selector if you know which category and/or sub-category the asset is stored under, or simply via the filter and search options.
Field: Compliance area updates
The Compliance area has been freshened up to make it easier for you to find what you need
Quickly access OHS Checklists and Risk Templates at the top of your screen. Towards the bottom you’ll now find the Create Assessment button.
Office: Cost Over-runs Highlighted
Cost over-runs are now simpler to spot
We’ve made a minor, but useful change to help out all the busy project managers out there.
The Project Progress tab will now highlight any cost over-runs using a different text colour, allowing you to quickly tell if a project is experiencing costing issues.
If you’re new to Projects and want to learn more, take a look at our help documentation for some insights into this tool’s features.

Calendar: Old Calendar Becomes Read Only
