Bug Fix: Generation of data-sources using the API with multiple levels

When a data-source was created using the API functions and didn’t push the entire estimate (just a branch of the WBS instead), the fields being split into all levels were not shifted properly resulting in a data source different from the one you would get when creating it manually.

Bug Fix: TimeFrame period fields may create error

When a data source was created and involved TimeFrame period fields, this could result in columns shifted in the resulting data source causing the error “Object not defined” at the time the data source was created. 

Bug Fix: Export of BOQ to Excel enhanced

Sometimes, Excel crashed when exporting the BOQ to Excel, this was because some users pushed ambiguities to the BOQ (like texts starting by the equal = sign). Excel considers this as formulas and crashes.

Now when we meet such text which created an error, we trap it and automatically add a simple quote in front to tell Excel to interpret it as a string.

New: API DisplayStimulsoftReport () function extended

The DisplayStimulsoftReport() function of the API has been enriched with a new signature allowing grasp over the preview window and the generation of output files.

DisplayStimulsoftReport(ReportPath As String, DataSourcePath As String, ShowPreviewWindow As Boolean, PreviewWindowState As System.Windows.Forms.FormWindowState, ShowProgressBar As Boolean, CloseAfterRendering As Boolean, Optional ByValExportResultToFileAs String = "")

Please see API documentation for more information.

Bug Fix: Wrong master/slave combination didn’t trigger anomaly window

When master/slave lists were used in the minutes and wrong association was entered (E.g.: using copy/paste operation) this was properly detected as computing time but if the master value or the parent value contained a dash (-), the window pointing out the anomaly was not displayed.

Bug Fix: Wrong figures on sub-sets for centralized storage

When the centralized storage to the database of the estimate was activated: sub set were imported with their formula for quantity on top row instead of 1.

New/fix: Converter – Settings .qdvconvert support now  formulas with different regional settings

Converter settings .qdvconvert now contain formulas stored in invariant regional settings which means they can be loaded on system with different comma and list separator.

It will work only with new .qdvconvert files saved and also used in new QDV versions so older .qdvconvert files or older QDV version will have the same behavior – in case of stored formulas with different regional settings it will fail with ‘Invalid formula’ error.

In addition in new QDV version with older .qdvconvert it won’t fail anymore with ‘Invalid formula’, instead there is this new summary and failed formulas can be found in .log file.

Change: Set converter – conversion performance improvement

Conversion duration of large number of sets has been improved considerably.
