Product Updates

1. Selections — Price override with text
Previously, price overrides displayed a dollar value. You now have greater flexibility to create a price override containing your own, custom text.

2. Job and Selection Templates — Saving check
When making changes to Job and Selection Templates, you’ll now be notified when another user has made changes concurrently and saved before you, ensuring you don’t erase their recently saved work.

3. Messaging — Multiple Reply To email addresses
Clients can now set up multiple email addresses within their account settings. This means when you reply to a client’s message, your reply will be emailed to all the addresses listed in the client’s account.

4. User interface enhancements

• When you’re using Constructive from a mobile device, you can now easily switch between Admin View and Client View via the hamburger menu.
  
• Within Selections, various user interface enhancements have been made in Simple View.

5. Bug Fixes

• 3D Model Editing Screen — You can now add 3D objects in Safari; shape highlight and selection, (when the object is in a group of nested objects), are now fixed.
• Job Listing — When the unit number is blank, a child job no longer shows its own Job Number in the greyed-out section below.

1. Item Documents — Attachment icon
When an item contains an attached document — such as a product brochure or a specification, an attachment icon now appears in the top left-hand corner.

2. Reporting — Selections Report improvement
Previously, when de-selecting a choice on a template with pre-selections, the item would still appear within the reporting paperwork. Now, if you de-select a choice that item will no longer appear in the report.

3. Bug fixes
House Type Areas Order now retains correct order after saving.
Job Listing — Selections now show as loaded on child jobs.
Internal 3D — Mirrors now obey displacement of model in client view.
Emails — Test setting is now the same as production.

This release focuses on the two new report pages: Top Choice Groups and Top Selection Groups by Upgrade %, helping you see a clear picture of what clients are selecting. Intelligence makes it easier to monitor trends so you can transform your data into business improvements and negotiate pricing with suppliers. Also in this release are two key column additions to existing pages: Total Variation Cost added to Job Details and Selection Made by added to Selection Detail.

1. NEW Report pages

Top Choice Groups
Similar to the existing Top Item Choices, this new page shows Selection Choice Count by Choice Group.

Top Selection Groups by Upgrade %
This new page displays Selection Groups by the percentage rate of upgrades selected.

2. Existing pages additions and improvements

Job Details
Total Variation Cost has been added to the Job Details table. This is the sum of Total Cost for selections made on the job.

Selection Detail
We have re-ordered some of the columns and added a new column: Selection Made By.

General
The column Prestart Meeting Completed On has been renamed to Selection Appointment Completed On throughout the report.

Top Item Choices
We’ve added an additional filter: Item Name – Id, as well as a new Table View button. Here you can see the Top Item Choices with detail of the Template, Selection Group, Selection and Choice Group.

Items with no Choices
We’ve added the following columns: Template, Selection Group, Selection, Choice Group and Dimension Type. 

Previously, the table displayed a distinct list of items with no choices within the filters applied. The table now shows items with no choices within each template and selection they appear on.

This means items that appear in multiple selections will appear in the table once per selection (where it has no choices within the applied filters). For instance, if item A has a selection made in template selection 1 and no selections for template selection 2, item A will display in the table for selection 2.

This release focuses on the new capability to filter by Progress Milestones when generating Selections reports. A selection of new Progress filters have been added to help you monitor trends and optimise operations to manage any delays.

1. Job Details Page

Job Details is now accessible directly from the Pages menu (as well as remaining as a drill-through from the Engagement and Jobs pages).

2. Job Details: New Filters

Empower yourself with deeper information on job progress within certain periods of time. Use these new filters in combination to display jobs within a Progress Item range.

• A new Progress Item Complete filter allows you to limit results to jobs which have a completed date for the selected Progress Item(s).
• Limit the completed date range for item(s) selected in the Progress Item Complete filter by further filtering with Progress Item Complete Date.
• The Progress Item Incomplete filter allows you to limit to jobs which do not have a completed date for the selected Progress Item(s).

For instance, setting Progress Item Complete to Selections and Progress Item Incomplete to Lockup will show you all jobs that have completed Selections, but not Lockup. You might then add a date restriction to show Selections completed in a specific date range with the Progress Item Complete Date filter.

3. Job Details: Selection Detail

You can now right-click on a row in the table to drill-through to the Selection Detail for the job. To drill-through to the Selection Detail for all the jobs in the table, simply right-click in the Totals row.

4. Selection Detail Additions

Business Unit and Region have been added to the Selection Detail page.

5. Surveys and NPS

Additional job contacts have been added to the Surveys and NPS drill-through pages.

1. Emails — Image upload
We’ve continued to improve our Email editing functionality to save you time and give you the tools to rapidly produce rich email communications yourself! You can now upload your own images into both your Email Templates and within your Email Content. Enhance your messaging and deliver an excellent customer experience by easily updating banners and adding extra imagery within the body of emails. 

2. Emails — Copy image URL
Furthering our Email improvements, you’re now able to copy a selected image URL in both the Email Templates and Email Content areas.

3. Internal 3D — Internal 3D model area pre-definition
Internal 3D visualisations just became easier with the ability to pre-define Kitchen and Bathroom models independent of the Elevation model.

4. Bug fixes
Pricing – adding or editing a note on a price overridden selection no longer negates the override.
Pricing – The add price for Price Band now shows the correct house types.

Features: Question mark character for job-specific non-standard products, Job Details functionality improvements, Bulk actions

1. Selections — Question mark character available for upgrades/POA
You can now change any product to POA/Upgrade using the special “?” character, instead of needing to type in a dollar figure. This allows you to make things non-standard specific to this job. For example, if a client has a wall stack oven included, then change the 900mm upgrade option to be POA.

2. Job Details — Selection Name shown in Job Quants
The Selection name is now shown in the Selection Dimension Type screen in Job Quants.

3. Job Details — Copy Quants tick box
Copying Selections just got a lot more powerful; you can now copy all the Job Quants at the same time — projects just became even easier!

4. Selection Template — Bulk actions
We’ve introduced a handy new feature in Choice Edits in the Selection Template. If you need to edit several choices, you can now select them all at once (instead of one by one) and perform a Bulk Action to them all.

5. Messages – New status available In Messages, we have a new status of Pending Client Response available to select.

6. Selections – Icon and overlay for discontinued items
An icon and overlay for discontinued items are now shown in the clients’ Selections view for company users, (not visible to clients), improving customer experience by ensuring your Selection Consultants are aware of discontinued items in their selections meeting. This avoids the disappointment of having to make item re-selections later in the process.

7. Bug Fixes
Users – If you have an admin person assigned to a Business Unit, you can now edit their user account.
