Noted Oracle have still not fixed the INVOKER rights bug in PA_AGREEMENT_PUB.
Error message handler enhanced to cope with PA.K's response to the bug.
Version 5.6.17 (10-Jul-2003)
Added Workbook version to About form.
PA_Security package still causing a problem. Modified to include package call in SQL then repeat SQL operation without package call if error arises. Mod is only in DLL, not Workbook.
Version 5.6.16 (21-Jun-2003 )
Specific handler changed to generic handler as now more than one site has encountered the problem.
Version 5.6.15 (18-Jun-20 03 )
Specific handler added to cope with uncommon problem calling the standard PA_Security package.
Version 5.6.14 (24-May- 2003 )
Mostly cosmetic enhancements to date handling in Details form and Upload process. Now cells stay in date format rather than text.
Version 5.6.13 (20-Apr-2 003)
Bug existed where Parent and Child Resource list members have the same name. Form assumed Parent or Child depending on which it had cached first.
Also program was unable to upload as it could not decide which was which.
Enhanced added to allow "|" notation in Parent Resource.
Form also requires specific selection from LOV before allowing ambiguous value.
All the above only applies to Grouped Resource Lists where "Resource Grp" column NOT used.
Version 5.6.12 (20-Apr-2003)
Added new override for PA_RESOURCE_LIST_MEMBERS.
Added new configuration option to allow prevention of budgeting at the Resource Group level in grouped Resource Lists. Default is to allow budgeting at both levels.
Version 5.6.11 (15-Apr-2003)
Added "Validate Only" option. This option performs everything but the actual uploads to AMG. It bypasses the Trial Version restraint as no data update is performed.
Version 5.6.10 (10-Apr-2003)
Added Logout button to toolbar
Version 5.6.09 (8-Apr-2003)
Discovered AMG does not prevent budgets from being uploaded where both Top and Bottom tasks have budget values. This is prevented in the standard form.
Added validation to prevent this from happening.
Version 5.6.08 (31-Mar-2 003)
Enhancement to Download feature at customer request. Can now include new optional parameter Budget Entry Method in the criteria. Default is none. Selection can be cleared using the Clear button.
SYSTEM password owner may now alter the template sheet by logging in as system in the DBA Setup form.
Toolbars may now be positioned by the user. When the workbook is saved, so is the toolbar location.
Version 5.6.07 (19-Mar-2 003 )
Enhancement to Actuals Download feature at customer request. Can now breakdown Actuals by the following columns if the column headings exist:
* Expenditure Category
* Expenditure Type
* Non Labor Resource
* Revenue Category
Version 5.6.06 (3-Mar-2003)
Fixed Bug causing closure of link to DLL if worksheet closed then close aborted.
Version 5.6.05 (18-Feb-2003)
Fixed bug in Downloading Budgets by Project Type. Was retrieving no data.
Version 5.6.04 (30-Jan-2003)
Minor improvement to error handling for date validation for date range phased budgets.
Moved Licence and other procedures to DLL.
Version 5.6.03 (18-Dec-2002)
Enhancement at customer request - upload functions require to be called by external macros. Made both upload procedures public
Can now be called by macros with the following syntax:* Application.Run "'Budget Wizard v56.xls'!Upload_Selected_Budget"
Alternatively we have built a macro you can use in your custom application. It is better than the above in that it is tolerant of any filename you use for Budget Wizard. The full text of this is in the section titled "Write your own Macros"
Requirement - the procedures must be called with the Wizard workbook loaded and cursor in an appropriate location on the datasheet (N/A for Upload all Budgets)
Version 5.6.02
17-Dec-2002. Bug fix. Task selection in Budget Details form for Top and Bottom level budgets was returning all tasks, not just tasks for the selected project.
Point release numbering system changed.
Version 5.6.01
New functionality added to allow the overriding of the main LOVs by creating custom views.
The installer may create different versions of the spreadsheet showing different sets of data for Projects, Tasks, Budget Types, Budget Entry Methods, and Resource Lists.
Version 5.5
Adjustment to AMG login procedure to cope with different number of parameters in PA.J patch set.
Clearer error messages added if no Current PA Reporting Period encountered.
Password change command changed to more flexible syntax.
Major change - In order to enable Budget Wizard to be used in conjunction with Project Wizard, i.e. to share the same worksheet which includes Project and Budget data, the convention for determining the end of a budget has changed.
Previously Budget Wizard required the Project Number to be repeated on every line. The end of a particular budget was identified by a change in Project Number. Therefore it was not possible to have blank lines within a budget.
Also the Task Number was required for every line (for task level budgets)
New convention as follows:
The Project Number must be recorded ONLY ONCE. The end of a particular budget is now identified by a non-blank line. If the same project number is repeated, a warning message advises that the repeated Project Number indicates the start of a new budget, giving the user an option to terminate the upload at this point.
The Task Number now is only required for the first row, and will apply for any subsequent rows, presumably containing different Amount Types or Line Comments.
It is perfectly acceptable to repeat the Task Number, although the download function will not bother displaying it except for the first row of any task.
Flash New Calendars !!!! Added to the forms to make typing dates a thing of the past.
Version 5.4
Included in Deployment Wizard.
Licence Key procedure added to unlock Trial Version.
Late-Binding technique added to allow any working MDAC_TYP version from 2.1
MDAC_TYP 2.6 install no longer required for Win2k or XP PCs.
Version 5.3
Automatic Funding Adjustment feature enhanced. A form is provided to allow multiple agreements to be selected.
Bug fix - First Baselined version was not being marked as Original
Bug fix - Upload failed for budgets where Resource Parent was budgeted against.
Versio n 5.2
Major new feature added. Automatic adjustment to Funding for Revenue Budgets.
Now you do not have to alter the funding manually, Budget Wizard can do this if you wish, provided all the normal rules are met. Uses an AMG package released in 11.5.4, or PA patchset D. You will be required to repair a bug in this package first.
New Classifications criteria added to Download form
Bug fix - fix a bug in the ability to load and baseline a zero budget using the Replace mode.
Bug fix - "Edit" options could not have worked properly for budgets time phased by date range. Now all "Edit" options referring to "Period" now work equally well for Date Range phased budgets.
Version 5.1
Support for line level Descriptive Flexfields added.
4.9 and 5.0 were not able to be run on NT4 and Windows 95. Fixed in this release.
Version 5.0
Major new feature added, the facility to download Actuals into the spreadsheet.
Uses the accumulation tables so depends on Update Summary Amounts process.
Versi on 4.9
A maintenance release. Colour scheme changed slightly (irritating shade of purple changed to blue)
Performance tuned using the fastest ADO tools and array processing.
Removed a minor bug in the download form.
Version 4.8
The "Edit Budget" functionality has been extended
The options on the toolbar in 4.7 were:
Replace Budget
Edit Budget
The scope of the range edited (deletes all existing lines and adds new lines from the sheet) could be identified only by the period in version 4.7
New list for version 4.8 is as follows:
Replace Budget
Edit Period (In v4.7 this functionality was labelled Edit Budget)
Edit Task
Edit Top Task
Edit Resource
Edit Resource Parent
Edit Period & Task
Edit Period & Top Task
Edit Period & Resource
Edit Period & Resource Parent
Edit Task & Resource
Edit Task & Resource Parent
Edit Top Task & Resource
Edit Top Task & Resource Parent
Edit Period & Task & Resource
Edit Period & Task & Resource Parent
Edit Period & Top Task & Resource
Edit Period & Top Task & Resource Parent
The above covers all possible variations. Program is smart enough to apply the scope options sensibly, i.e. Edit Resource is ignored for non-Resource level budgets. If the Edit Task & Resource option is chosen and a budget is at task level only, the Edit Task scope is applied.
Edit Resource and Edit Resource Parent means the same thing for single level resource lists.
There are some minor improvements in the Details form, in the area of Resource Lists.
Version 4.7
The following enhancements have been made in this release:
Resources
This area has been enhanced specifically to address the issue discussed above in 4.6:
* Concatenation of Resource Group/Resource is now only compulsory where duplicates actually exist.
Otherwise only the Resource need appear in the cell.
* Users granted new option (via toolbar button) to always perform concatenation if desired.
* Budget Details Form changed to conform to the above.
* Download function changed to conform to the above.
* Upload function. Upload cancelled if program cannot uniquely identify each resource.
* Budget Details Form - Allow users to include query criteria for the Resource group.
New optional column
As an alternative to concatenating the items together, there is a new column labelled "Resource Grp" to contain this data. If the user keeps this column on the sheet, then it is always used to contain the Resource Group. Like all other columns on the sheet, this column may be moved or hidden. Because it is optional, it may be deleted. In this case the program reverts to concatenating the Resource Group and the Resource together, or just showing the Resource (depending on the user option selected)
Handling of Duplicate lines
Users may have repeated budget lines on the worksheet either accidentally or deliberately. The Upload program now presents any such findings to the user and provides the following options:
* Accumulate and Continue (The user intended to do this)
* Continue but Error this Budget (Mistake but identify all such errors)
* Cancel (Stop the upload immediately)
If the user cancels or errors the budget, duplicates are identified on the line status and the offending amount columns are changed to a yellow colour.
Forms and Upload Performance
The number of calls to the database has been reduced to the absolute minimum by caching results of prior calls in memory arrays. Once a Period or Task or Resource is validated, the results are kept for the remainder of the session. As a result the upload program performance starts with up to 3 validation database calls per budget line and can reduce to none. Subsequent uploads benefit immediately from the cached validated data.
As a consequence of the above enhancements there now appears to be two passes through the data, an initial validation run, and then the actual upload. Counters have been placed on the status bar to show users the progress.
Similar techniques have been applied to the Budget Details and Download forms.
Version 4.6
This is the first release containing the Download functionality and fixes the duplicated resource issue in 4.5 by storing resources on the sheet as follows:
Group A|Admin
Group B|Admin
This has resulted in the following feedback:
"The data on the sheet now contains resources that do not match to a list distributed to budget users. These people do not know or need to know about Resource Groups. It makes it difficult to paste budget data into the model from other sources.""
Fair enough, see v4.7
Versio n 4.5
This is the first commercial release. A potential problem existed for users who use a grouped resource list AND who have duplicated resources, i.e.
