Review Asphalt Pre-Certification

Version 8.2.4 Changes

• Updated the Theoretical Non-Compliance Amount calculation to match the one used in Material Precert.

Version 8.1.1 Changes

• Corrected an Application Termination error that occurred when the lower grid of an empty Non-Compliant Testing Quantities tab was clicked.

• Eliminated the duplicate error message that was displayed when the "All PARs are Closed" linking icon was clicked on a contract that did not have any PARS.

• Eliminated the shifting that occurred in the lower datawindow of the Non-Compliant Testing Quantities tab when tabbing through the fields after a row had been entered.

• Updated the window functioning to set the focus in the required field after user acknowledges the required field error message.

• Changed the validation process so that users are able to update multiple rows without having to Save after every row change.

• Added the Line Item Unit of Measure (UOM), the Material UOM, and the Status Date to the Non-Compliant Testing Quantities tab.

• Added the latest Acceptance Method on the CBOM to the Non-Compliant Testing Quantities tab.

• Modified the application so that 0.00 is allowed in the Pay Factor Non Comp % column.

• Added a flexible Notification that is activated when the Asphalt Pre-Certification tasks are completed and the Verify button is clicked.

• Implemented the following rules for the window field edits and default values:

  1. Pay Factor NonComp % column should default to NULL.

  2. Allow user to check Non Compliant PAR Quantities on the General Tab even if some PAR NonComp % values are still NULL.

  3. PAR Quantities tab should not require a Reason unless Pay Factor NonComp % is > 0.00.

  4. Do not allow Pay Factor Non Comp % > 100 or < 0.

• Implemented the Notification of Conversion Factor Change that is sent when a conversion factor on an incorporated material is made after the Asphalt Pre-Certification is complete.

New for Version 8.1

• The new Asphalt Pre-Certification module provides designated users with the following:

  • A summary of Asphalt material tonnages, number of density tests performed, number of passing tests, and number of failing tests.

  • A place to manually indicate whether or not there were testing shortages. If testing shortages are indicated, the user will be provided with a method of indicating the quantity of material that should be considered 'non-compliant' and a line item that should be used to calculate non-compliance dollars.

  • A place to view comments regarding differences between theoretical and actual pay factors entered on QA-2B PARs. If the comment does not provide an adequate explanation and/or there is reason to believe the contractor was not penalized properly, the associated tonnage of asphalt may be marked as "non-compliant".

  • A list of all QC Density failures that do not have an associated PAR, as well as failures where the PAR has not been disposed. Asphalt Material Certification cannot be completed until all QC Density failures have an associated PAR and all QA-2B PARs have been disposed.

  • A summary list of all QA-2A PARs for review. During this review, the user will be provided with a method of indicating whether or not the tonnage associated with the PAR should be considered non-compliant.

  • A method of printing an Asphalt Certification summary letter to be included in the Pre-Certification package.
