Forms Library
Advanced search options and Show/Hide data now available
Forms Library users can now find forms more easily with enhanced search functionality, including filters for standard body, subcategory, and material.
This update, combined with the ability to show or hide columns in the data table, helps users quickly find essential form designs for critical project work.
Use the 'Table Settings' in the top right to tailor your view and display the most relevant data.
Lab
Soil Proctor data may be copied from within a test
Easily create a Proctor record without leaving your test form, streamlining workflows and eliminating unnecessary navigation.
With a new one-click button at the top of the Proctor test form, users can efficiently copy Proctor data and complete lab tests without interruption.
Proctors will retain one decimal precision
Technicians in the field can now easily see the precise level of calculations, as the Max Dry Density and Optimum Moisture fields in proctor records will always retain one decimal place, even if it is .0.
Integrations
ForneyVault
Test Age Average will be recalculated when results are added.
In Review for Concrete / Grout / Mortar tests, the "Test Age Average" will be recalculated when results are added via the ForneyVault integration.
Vantagepoint
Rate Table references can now be stored with Work Breakdown Structure records.
Vantagepoint integration users can now define a "Rate Table" in Work Breakdown Structure records, ensuring seamless and clear communication between MetaField and Vantagepoint.
QuickBooks
Projects synced between QuickBooks and MetaField can now be filtered.
Now, users with the QuickBooks integration can ensure only relevant projects are managed in MetaField with a new configurable filter, allowing them to send only projects that match a specified ending in the Sub-Customer or Project Name fields.
