PW 7.0
Build 7.00.0022

What's New

 

Prolog WebSite Admin

  • When detaching databases from Prolog Manager Administrator and setting the "List All Projects" option to No in Prolog WebSite Admin, several projects in attached databases may not have been listed when a user logged on to Prolog WebSite. This issue has been resolved. (10208)
     

  • In System Setup Page One, you can now type the Admin name to be used in the From line when a system email is sent from Prolog WebSite. (18067)

Date Format

  • Prolog WebSite now uses your Windows regional settings for date and time formatting. This resolves a number of issues including the inability to add Drawings and Specifications revisions, improper record dating, and record filtering problems. (14832, 13723, 13750, 13751, 13983, 19827)

Document Management

  • Users can now use Version Control to keep track of all the versions of a file that are uploaded to Document Management. Use the Administration section in Prolog WebSite to turn on Version Control for each project. When using Version Control, server storage capacity needs may increase. For more information, see "Using Version Control" in the Prolog WebSite Help system.
     

  • When setting permissions in Document Management, folder permissions can be propagated to subfolders and files. When uploading a file, the file takes its permissions from the folder to which it is uploaded. Uses can either leave the permissions or change the permissions to suit their needs. For more information, see "Granting Folder Permissions" and "Granting File Permissions" in the Prolog WebSite Help system.
     

  • Document Management no longer uses Project Document permissions. All permissions in Document Management are either folder permissions or file permissions. For more information, see "Document Management Permissions" in the Prolog WebSite Help system.
     

  • The Prolog Manager "Admin" user can now act as the Document Management administrator. In Prolog Manager, the "Admin" user can open Document Management and have full control to all the contents. Note that the "Admin" user cannot log on to Prolog WebSite. For more information, see "Document Management Permissions" in the Prolog WebSite Help system.
     

  • To easily locate a specific folder or file, Document Management now provides a Find feature. In the Find feature, type in the text for the file or folder. Document Management displays any items matching the criterion and lets users click the item to go to it. For more information, see "Finding Folders in Document Management" and "Finding Files in Document Management".
     

  • When uploading files, the Number box in the File Upload Wizard may have set the number for multiple files to 19. This limit was due to the Numeric Formatting for this box. For any newly created projects, the Numeric Formatting is now set to three. To change the Numeric Formatting for this box, in Prolog Manager's Numeric Formatting, change the "Prolog WebSite Document Management" option. (20655)
     

  • The performance associated with uploading files has been significantly increased. (20984)
     

  • By default, the Project Specific - Numeric Formatting setting for Document Management is now set to 3 characters instead of 0 for all new projects. This resolves several issues involving improper numbering of Document Management files. For existing projects, users should manually change this setting to 3 characters. For more information, see "Setting the Numeric Formatting Option" in the Prolog Manager Help system. (20344, 20655)
     

  • When uploading a file over an existing Document Management file, the upload may not have completed. This issue has been resolved. (20099)

Drawings and Specifications

  • The "Optional Sort Number" box has been added to the Drawings and Specifications form and can now be used to filter Drawings and Specifications reports. (13231)
     

  • When running Prolog WebSite in German Windows, some users may have been unable to add a revision to a Drawings and Specifications record. This issue has been resolved. (13750)

Meetings

  • After setting a user group's Data Group Permissions for Meeting Minutes to read only, some users in that group may have been unable to view Meeting Minutes data in Prolog WebSite. This issue has been resolved. (15468)

RFI

  • The RFI form now uses the Created Date and Address RFI To fields as the required fields. This feature uses the same required fields as Prolog Manager's RFI form. (10910, 19098)
     

  • A new Data Group permission, "To Contact", has been added to the "Request for Information - Routing" data group. This permission controls access to the "Address RFI To" box in Prolog WebSite. Previously, access to this box was determined by the "Request for Information\RFI\Number" Data Group permission. (10542, 11644)

Note: The numbers that appear in parentheses are for Meridian Systems internal reference.
