SCR 361141 Enter charges for new job

From Calidus HUB

Small Change Request (Analysis)

Project/Log Number: RHO / 361141

Date: 03/09/2019

Requested By: Kevin Galyer

Prepared By: Barry Preece


Change Category (SCE_WMS, CTMS, EPOD, PORTAL, etc):
EPOD
 

Describe the Change Being Requested:
Rhodes Freight require the ability to enter job charges when they add a job, without exiting and returning to the job screen.
 

Describe the Reason for the Change (new requirement, s/w fix, problem management etc):
Product enhancement: improve usability for clients such as Rhodes Freight who do not have an ERP interface into ePOD and so use the ePOD maintenance screens directly to create and maintain jobs in the sysytem.
 

Describe all Alternatives Considered:
Add the "Time, Expenses & Charges" tab to the New Job screen. Too complex so this option not chosen.
 

List Program and Change Summary Required to Implement this Change:
Change the New Job window so that, after saving the new job, the window stays on-screen and the user can make edits to the new job. Note that this must now make the "Time Expenses & Charges" tab visible so that the user can add charges.

The screens must make it clear that the job has now been saved or created. Note Note: For consistency, the New Load, New Container & New Product windows should be changed to work the same way.
 

Describe Risks to be Considered for this Change:
Change of screen operation for existing users who add jobs manually. Not considered a problem; users can exit with a single click and will have the benefit of being able to edit the job before exiting.
 

Estimate Dev/Test Effort (in days) Needed to Implement this Change:

SCR Analysis: 0.25
DEV: 2.0
TEST: 0.25

Describe the Implications to other Customers:
All customers using the Load, Jobs and Products/Containers screen need to be aware of the change.
