The development team here at SimpliBuild has a backlog of every request and every small change and improvement that has ever been mentioned or identified. As you can image that list has grown quite large and there’s been a huge amount of useability improvements that we’ve really wanted to do.
Well we’ve spent the last two weeks going through, prioritising and fixing a bunch of these improvements.

In this release:

• When adding a new business, you’ve always been able to search by name or ABN, however the text box previously only stated that it was possible to search by ABN. We’ve updated this to “Search business name or abn number”.

• Updated the Feedback tab to show a revision number as “Rev 1” “Rev 2” rather than just the number.

• Ability to upload your business logo within the settings for each different Business Unit within your business.

• Updated some SWMS content to expand acronyms that may not be well known. eg SL—> Scissor Lift

• First time users now have information and step by step guides on how to get started with the first SWMS.

• Blue information boxes on the SWMS creation screens now only display as each field is selected. This helps prevent an overwhelming block of information from being bombarded at you.

• Made a number of UI improvements and tweaks to Kiosk mode

• Trade skill selection now shows information for all users to help understand why you’re selecting a trade skill.

• Changed Assisted mode so that it opens in the same tab rather than a new tab as a recent iOS update has disabled new tabs in the Safari browser

• Monitor Review frequency now defaults as empty rather than zero

• When inviting a new Org Admin user, the organisation will default to your primary organisation. This was previously blank and needed to be selected.

• When adding a custom Activity/Risk or Control, the text field is now automatically selected and ready for typing rather than needing to select it.

• When creating a new SWMS revision, you’ll go straight to the edit screen without the need to select edit.

Bugs:

• Fixed an issue where sometimes a ‘profile placeholder’ screen is displayed instead of the SWMS application

• It was possible to set the due date on a SWMS to ‘yesterday’. This caused an error and has now been fixed

• As a PCBU, when editing a draft SWMS and adding a new Point of Contact, the new point of contact was not adding correctly.

• While editing a business unit on a SWMS, the floating label incorrectly showed “subcontractor company search” rather than “Search Business unit”

• Clicking “edit project” as a project admin would throw an error. This has now been fixed, and project admins have access to edit projects.

• Fixed an issue where pressing the save button on a file upload prior to the file finishing being uploaded caused an error and file to be lost

• Fixed an issue where names weren’t correctly being pulled through when signing in using Office365.

• Fixed an issue where pressing the save button in the admin screen threw an error if there was no business logo set.
