Change: QDVTools4XL Distribution – Protect against a special setting

In Excel, computations can be done using the displayed values instead of the stored values. In this case, the distribution application gives wrong results. To avoid it, first and second phase cannot be run if this setting is activated.

New: Throughput (Pace) of the parent of a set accessible as a variable

In the ‘Formula for Quantity’ field, when the cursor is located inside a set and the estimate is configured to handle ‘Throughput’ or ‘Local_throughput’ fields, you can now access the corresponding value directly in the formula, as you would do with any set variables.

Because this variable is built-in, you cannot add a variable which this name in the estimate: ‘Throughput’ is now a reserved name.

Change: no ‘X’ in ‘HasWBSVariable’ column when QEval only is shown

In the WBS column ‘HasWBSVariables’, QDV no longer displays an 'X' in WBS when the only variables in the list is QEval because QEval is not a user variable.

New: Migratation of SQLite management .qdc databases to SQL Server

There is new function to migrate SQLite manager. databases from SQLite to SQLServer in ‘Migrate SQLite Databases to SQL Server’ application (MigrateQDVDatabasesToSQLServer.exe).

It is supposed to be used with new/empty SQL Server man. databases as all data is deleted before import so if you are not sure, please make backup of your SQL Server database before you start.

 

Change: Edisys extended

Edisys bridge (SPIGAO) has been extended to support all WBSs up to 8 level in depth. When the WBS has more level, it is automatically reduced by removing the last-level totals to fit in QDV.
