Review Product Maintenance

Version 8.1.1 Changes

Added a field for the email address of the Contact in DOH Vendor's Review Product Maintenance window.

Corrected a problem that prevented some product records from having their status changed.

Expanded the dropdown selection list size for Groups to display the appropriate choices.

The window has been corrected to prevent the selection of a duplicate Evaluator on the Evaluation Tab.
The window logic has been enhanced to conform to business requirements and to improve the visual display. When the Approval Responsibility is modified, information in the Group and Category fields is removed. The width of the Unit of Measure field on the General tab has been expanded and it is no longer possible to enter a negative Unit Price value.
Two new sub-menu options are available under the Products menu called Memorandum and Agenda. These new items allow users to create, update and print committee meeting agendas and memoranda.
The New Product Memorandum feature enables users to create a memo for a Product that is currently under evaluation and has been assigned a committee meeting date. The information will include all evaluators assigned to a Product, information about the product, and the date that it will be submitted to the committee.
The Agenda feature is for upcoming committee meetings. This will include the meeting date, time & location information, a distribution list, the list of products to review, information about the product, and the agenda for the meeting.

A history record will now be created each time the Approval Responsibility of a product is changed.
Approval Responsibility information has been added to the Group dropdown list and the list has been alphabetized for improved searching.
Approval Responsibility and Group information has been added to the Category dropdown list and the list has been alphabetized for improved searching.

The Vendor menu lists have been changed to match the menu standards currently used in HiCAMS. The following change has been made:
- Product Maintenance is now Review Product Maintenance
- Review Distribution List has been added

Corrected functionality to ensure accurate dates are entered in the Dates tab. When entering information on the Dates tab of the Product Information window, the "Information Packet Received" date must contain a date that is earlier than the date that is entered in the "Sent for Evaluation" field.

Changed the order of the display columns in the Product Selection Window so that Plant ID and Trade Name are columns three and four instead of columns six and seven. This allows them to be viewed without scrolling.
When a product has been linked to an approved Producer/Supplier, double-clicking on the Approved Producer/Supplier field will display the Producer/Supplier address, contact, and phone number info.
Added the ability to create New Products to the M&T Lab Supervisors default security. Additional users can be given this ability by adding the appropriate Security tag.
Updated the Products Report per User Request.

This functionality replaces New Products and all former Products Modules. All modules and menu items regarding Products have been combined into the new Product Module. This module contains information regarding both "New Products", such as new inventions and innovations that have never been seen or used by the NCDOT before, and "M&T Products" such as products like grout that are already being used by the state and already have a standard specification in place, but have never been supplied by this particular manufacturer before. Additionally, Evaluator comments and any Test Results, as well as the Product Status, are now tracked.
