Required Selections in Selected Options

For Clients integrated with Pipeline Sales, the Configurations now show a validation message whenever a Contract was already locked (like For Signing) and updated to another locked status (like Complete status) but had existing options with selections tagged as required only after. This happens especially when the required selections are used by newer Contracts but not required by older ones.

This applies for changing the Status from For Signing to Contract Complete, or back to another locked status. The validation message then displays to require the User to change it back to Configuration or Change Order Initial before it’s allowed to be changed to a new locked status (like Change Order Complete).

Ready to Send to Purchasing

For Clients integrated with Pipeline Purchasing, we have added an ability to determine whether a configuration is ready to send to Pipeline Purchasing or not yet.

The system checks if a Configuration is Ready to Send to Pipeline Purchasing if the following conditions are met:

  1. Configuration Status must either be Contract Complete OR Change Order Complete
  2. And when the current version was NOT yet been sent to Pipeline Purchasing from the time it was created.

This filtering is displayed in the Additional Filters button. This would help you filter out to make it easier to select the More Actions function then click ” Send to Purchasing”.

Ready to SEnd to Purchasing

Auto- Send to Pipeline Purchasing

For Clients integrated with Pipeline Purchasing, we now Auto-send the completed Contracts or Change Orders that were NOT yet sent to Pipeline Purchasing but had already an initial Sent to Purchasing History log since the Configuration was created.

This saves you time instead of manually sending it to Purchasing every time there are Contract changes like New Change Order versions or when it was tagged as Change Order Complete.
