New Features!!

There's been a lot of new things added to RoundhousePM in the last few weeks and we wanted to take this opportunity to tell you about them.  As you can see below, many of these were some great suggestions by our users, so if you have an idea please send us an email at [email protected].

Daily Digest:

1. Users now have the ability to select what they see in their Daily Digest.  Previously a user only saw open items that they were personally responsible for.  We had the request from many Project Managers and Principals to see more information about their team and/or staff, so each user now has the ability to choose from the following:

RFI Module:

1. Images may now be attached to an RFI.  Previously it was only PDF files.
2. We’ve added a new view to the main screen of this module called “Q&A”.  When the rows are expanded it allows you to see the question, the answer and a thumbnail of any attachment.  This view is very useful when issuing an Addendum and you need to officially document all of the RFIs that have been issued.  Simply expand all rows and print the page.

Documents Module:

1. We’ve found that many firms require people put documents in a firm established folder system.  For this reason we now offer the ability to create Predefined Folders that are created by your RoundhousePM Admin.  To access this feature your Admin will need to create a new Documents Module then select the Predefined Folders option shown below.  Once this is done rename, add and delete folders as needed.  See image below.
2. Notifications now pre-populate the subject line of the email similar to what happens in other modules.

Task Module:

1. At the request of many subscribers you can now attach a file to a Task.  So when you ask someone to review a document, you can attach the document you’d like for them to review.

All Modules main screen:

1. Default view is to show only Open items.
2. The number of records shown and the total number of records, is now displayed at the top of the list.
3. In order to display the data faster, Log Modules in workspace levels 1 thru 3 now show only the first 25 records and have a “Show More” button at the bottom.  Workspace levels 4 and 5 always show all records.

Miscellaneous:

1. Improved page load time for Internet Explorer browser.
2. Added a menu item under User Preferences that displays browser and system information that can be provided to RoundhousePM Support.
3. Improvements to the graphic display of Daily Digest.
4. Improvements to the graphic display of the Workspace Summary Pages.
