V2

V2 To Do - Summary

V2 Lower Priority Items

  1. Write Workflow & User Role working paper in preparation for working session - JK

  2. Write up requirements for Pöyry Uma Oya system (first V2 customer)
    • !. Issue: Is this still a possible sale?

  3. Review to check if all back links & cancel buttons have been removed - AH/TN

  4. Implement display of audit trail (mainly for transmittal downloads) - TN

Incoming Transmittals

  1. This is the ability to create a transmittal, based on project receiving a transmittal
  2. The transmittal cover letter and accompanying documents would be registered as documents/revisions in the system
  3. A transmittal would be created with the cover letter and documents, and simply marked as received (with a date)

  4. Issues

    1. Is special handling for the transmittal's cover letter needed
    2. Should it be possible to record both the transmittal date (the sender's date) and the actual date of receipt by the project?
      1. Ideally we could handle this later when we implement workflows
