A correction has been made to the window processing to prevent a change being made to a Material Type for a specific material after it has been linked to a contract. This change has been made to prevent a metric material from being erroneously added to an English contract.
The Maintain Contract BOM window has been updated to default the Conversion Factor to zero for all newly inserted records (as a means of prompting the user to enter a value). The user should enter the appropriate conversion factor when possible. Critical materials must have a positive (greater than zero) conversion factor in order to be saved. Other materials may be saved with the null conversion factor, but a valid conversion factor must be entered for each material on a line item before a payment can be made on that line item.
A History tab has been added to the Maintain Contract BOM window (accessed via Details button on Review CBOM window). The tab has been added to provide historical evidence of changes made to the CBOM throughout the life of the contract.
Many updates have been made to the Materials list in HiCAMS, including the Asphalt Bases and Pavements category. Because the JMF module will only return the specific material assigned to it (Asphalt Concrete Surface Course, Type S 12.5D) it is important to update the Contract Bill of Materials with the appropriate AC products in order to be able to enter Tickets.
Field Density Materials must be added to the Contract BOM before Density results can be entered. The Field Density Materials are:
Users are now able to select multiple Material records for deletion by holding the <CTRL> key. After selecting multiple material records, use the Erase button on the toolbar to delete the highlighted rows. If the Delete key is used, only the field that is highlighted will be deleted and not the entire row. (This is standard window behavior.)
Keying "Control + D", deselects all items previously selected.
Verify Bill of Materials: A warning message will be given when the Verify button is clicked if there are conversion factors that require updates because the Master Conv Unknown check box is checked on the Material. This indicator is checked when the Matierl's conversion factor varies from contract to contract.
The column Contract Special Provision was renamed to Check for Materials. When this indicator is checked, Materials could not be defaulted from the Master Bill of Materials to the COntract Bill of Materials During Authorization. Materials will need to be added to the Contract Bill of Materials by the user based on the work described in the Contract.
Select All has been added to the right mouse click menu option to let you select all contract line items and print the Contract Bill of Materials Report. Once completed, you can choose the Deselect All right mouse click menu option to deselect the highlighted rows.
Line items created by Force Accounts, Claims, or Supplemental Agreements have been added to the Line item list.
A How Received column has been added to the Maintain Contract BOM window to specify the receipt method for each material as specified in the Minimum Sampling Guide.
