v2.0.5

AUTODOCS 2.0.5
major
  • 2.0.5-ADD-01
    AddedDocument Files: a file store organised by documentA project file store arranged the way the documents are: type, then document number, then revision — with every file attached to that document gathered in one place, whether it came in with the form, during a review step, in a reply, as the signed PDF, or as a site photograph. Switch between a list and a thumbnail grid; the preview pane on the right holds its space permanently, so the file list is no longer squeezed when a file is selected. Select several files and download them as one ZIP, search across the whole store, filter by company, star the files you return to, and see what you opened recently. PDF files open in the application itself. Files can be shared as a link, either to the people already on the document or publicly, with an expiry date, revocable at any time, and forwarded to LINE in one button. A project administrator can lock a folder for a whole document type or for a single document; a locked document disappears from everything that user can see — counts, search results and starred items included — so nothing hints that a hidden document exists.
  • 2.0.5-ADD-02
    AddedThe Drawer: a project-wide file index with ranked searchOne index of every file attached anywhere in the project, with a summary console and a search that ranks results by relevance across file names and file metadata. Results only ever show files the person searching is already entitled to see, under the same document visibility rules as everywhere else.
  • 2.0.5-ADD-03
    AddedSearch inside PDF content, not just file namesSearch now reads the text inside PDF files as well, so a document can be found by wording that appears in it even when nobody remembers what the file was called.
  • 2.0.5-ADD-04
    AddedA console for every link you have sharedOne page listing the links you have shared — a project administrator sees the whole project's. Each row says which document it opens, who can open it, how long it has left, how many times it has been opened, and who created it. Links can be closed from here, and clicking a row goes to that document's file store.
  • 2.0.5-ADD-05
    AddedFilter the rows you print by the values in a columnThe printed document register can now be narrowed properly: several values in the same column, and filters on sender and recipient, which had none before. Print only the documents from the contractor to the construction manager that are under review or approved and fall due this month. The number of rows printed always matches the number that actually match.
  • 2.0.5-ADD-06
    AddedAn integration API, opened on requestAn organisation that wants document status inside its own systems can now ask for a connection. It is closed and customer-scoped rather than a public service: it is enabled one project at a time, credentials are issued for that project alone, both are off until asked for, and switching it off withdraws access immediately. The connection is read-only and returns metadata only — document number, status, version, current workflow stage — and can never return document content, attachments, or a link to a file.
  • 2.0.5-ADD-07
    AddedA published privacy notice, and a copy of your own dataA privacy notice is now published, stating why data is collected, how long it is kept, the rights of the person it belongs to and where each is exercised, the external providers involved, and a contact channel that is actually monitored. Users can obtain a copy of their own personal data from the Account page, and each acceptance is recorded against the dated edition of the document that was in force at the time.
  • 2.0.5-ADD-08
    AddedA per-project switch for AI featuresAI-assisted features are enabled per project and off by default, for the project administrator to turn on. Customer data is never used to train models, and before anything is sent out, email addresses, phone numbers and financial figures are removed automatically; personal names and organisation names are removed only where they appear in a field specifically set aside for that kind of data.
  • 2.0.5-SEC-01
    SecurityA full OWASP security audit, published for anyone to checkThe system has completed a full internal security audit against the OWASP standards, with every finding documented and a regression test accompanying every fix. The result is published as a public page at /security, which answers a standard 21-item third-party risk assessment in advance — any company's procurement team can read it and print it straight into their own file without having to ask for it. Several security controls were strengthened along the way, across session handling, access control, and the file types accepted on upload.
  • 2.0.5-CHG-01
    ChangedThe Traffic Map: count drawings, click through, and read more easilyA switch on the card header changes what the whole map counts — documents or drawings — because one approval document can carry several drawings, so the real backlog for the person managing drawings is not a count of documents. The switch appears only on document types that actually carry drawings. Clicking a stage's weather symbol now goes straight to that stage's documents, and the paths and count labels no longer overlap each other.
  • 2.0.5-CHG-02
    ChangedClick a file name in the summary and land on the fileThe "recently added" and "most used" lists on the file index summary now open the file when its name is clicked — for the files that person is entitled to see, under the existing rules.
  • 2.0.5-CHG-03
    ChangedPersonal account settings now live in one placePersonal settings, profile, password and the account deletion request have moved to an account page that belongs to the whole workspace rather than to a project. It is reachable from anywhere, including by a user who is not yet a member of any project — who previously could not reach it at all.
  • 2.0.5-CHG-04
    ChangedSort the printed register by any columnThere used to be two orderings; anyone who wanted another exported to Excel and sorted it there. Every printed column can now be sorted, in either direction. Document numbers sort numerically (RFA-9 before RFA-10), Thai text sorts the way Thai readers expect, and rows with no value always sink to the bottom whichever way you sort. PDF, CSV and Excel all come out in the same order.
  • 2.0.5-CHG-05
    ChangedThe form builder names a field for youAdding a field in the workflow builder now saves straight away: the internal reference name is derived from the label you typed. Previously it had to be filled in by hand, and leaving it empty failed the save without saying what to type.
  • 2.0.5-CHG-06
    ChangedA clearer workflow diagram in the guidance pagesThe workflow diagram in the guidance pages is framed at the same zoom as the Traffic Map, so a short workflow is no longer blown up to fill the frame and read out of proportion.
  • 2.0.5-FIX-01
    FixedSubject folders appear only where subjects are actually in useThe file store used to show the approval documents' subject folders on other document types as well, producing empty folders holding nothing plus an "unassigned" folder holding the entire type. Subject folders now appear only on document types that have subjects turned on.
  • 2.0.5-FIX-02
    FixedSmall display fixesThe highlight ring on today's node in the 7-day timeline shows as a full circle instead of having its crown clipped. The file index's search row stays on one line, so the open-file button no longer drops below the file name and reads as a stray control. The view-settings menu no longer offers options that do nothing in the current view. And the project selector sits above the guidance section in the sidebar, matching the way people actually move around.

v2.0.4

AUTODOCS 2.0.4
major
  • 2.0.4-ADD-01
    AddedTraffic Map on the dashboardA full-width band under the 7-day strip that puts the project's whole workflow in one picture — each stage is a circle, and every document in progress is a dot travelling the path between stages, so you can see at once where work is piling up. Dots carry the colour of the company that raised the document, with a colour key underneath; a stage holding a lot of documents changes colour and expression so it is hard to miss; and pointing at a stage highlights only the paths connected to it. The paths match the workflow the project administrator designed, including return-for-revision routes and stage-skipping forwards. Everyone on the project sees the band without having to turn it on.
  • 2.0.4-ADD-02
    AddedThe Traffic Map in the Document Log — click a stage to filterThe same map now sits on the Document Log as well, and clicking any stage circle narrows the list to the documents held at that stage; click it again to go back to everything. Seeing where work has piled up and getting to the actual documents is one click, not two screens.
  • 2.0.4-ADD-03
    AddedSign in with LINEConnect your LINE account to your user account in Settings, and from then on the LINE button on the sign-in page gets you in without a password. Linking can only be done from an account you are already signed in to, one LINE account belongs to exactly one user, and no account is ever created automatically — anyone who has not linked signs in exactly as before.
  • 2.0.4-ADD-04
    AddedShare a document into a LINE chat or groupA share button on the document page and in the Document Log sends a document straight into a LINE chat or group, or copies a link for you to paste yourself. The recipient gets a card carrying the number, the subject and the current stage, with a button that opens it. Several documents can go at once from the selection bar in the Document Log, and the button is there on a phone too — sharing into the site group is work done on site.
  • 2.0.4-ADD-05
    AddedPin the inspection position on the floor planA new field for site inspection work: pick a location that carries a key plan — the per-floor image uploaded on the project home page — and tap the plan to pin where the inspection took place. Several pins are allowed and each remembers its own location. A project administrator can add the field to any document type from the workflow designer, and new projects get it on the site inspection (RI) form from the start.
  • 2.0.4-ADD-06
    AddedChoose a date range before printing the Document LogThe print dialog now takes a date range, defaulting to the last month. Printing used to sweep the entire history every time, so a routine job that wanted "last month" got a hundred-page file. Clear the range to get everything as before — and the range you chose is printed on the register header, so nobody files the document away believing it covers the whole project.
  • 2.0.4-ADD-07
    AddedA calendar summary page on the Daily Report printoutThe Daily Report register now opens with a month-by-month calendar of the range being printed: a dot under every date that has a report (with a number beside it on days carrying several), holidays shaded and named underneath, and a summary of the report count, working days and holidays. Which days went without a report is visible at a glance.
  • 2.0.4-ADD-08
    AddedManpower and photo counts on the Daily Report printoutThe print dialog gains a section that belongs to the Daily Report alone: print the manpower broken down by trade, and the number of photos on each report. Manpower reads as a line under the subject rather than a column, because what you want from it is who was on site that day, not a number to sort by.
  • 2.0.4-ADD-09
    AddedSet a dashboard card to the height you wantDrag a card's bottom edge to fix its height; anything taller scrolls inside the card. Double-click or press Delete to go back to the natural height. The height is remembered per card group, and survives reordering the cards or changing their width.
  • 2.0.4-ADD-10
    AddedThe device camera and pull-to-refresh in the mobile appThe photo work that was still going through a file picker — reporting and following up defects, the inspection gallery, and staging photos for a site inspection (RI) — now opens the device camera directly in the mobile app. And any page can be refreshed by pulling down on it, sidebar badges included, instead of reaching for the refresh button in the header.
  • 2.0.4-CHG-01
    ChangedFiltering the Document Log got simplerThe per-stage count cards are now the filter themselves: click a stage to see only the documents in it, click again for everything. The separate status dropdown is gone, since it did the same job twice. The cards follow the real workflow order and push withdrawn and deleted to the end, and the work-trade and company fields can be typed into instead of scrolled through.
  • 2.0.4-CHG-02
    ChangedThe sign-in page and its release-notes panelThe Google, Microsoft and LINE buttons are down to their logos and share one row, splitting the width evenly between whichever are enabled — with words on them a third button fell to a third line and pushed the footer off the screen. The release-notes panel beside the form switches between Thai and English, always shows the three most recent releases, and gives every item a heading, the way the changelog on the website does.
  • 2.0.4-CHG-03
    ChangedStarting at the camera now covers every photo fieldA document type set to open at the camera on a phone works for every kind of photo field, not only the standard one — the Daily Report photos and the inspection photo widgets included. It also picks a field that is actually on the create form, so it can no longer aim at a camera belonging to a later stage.
  • 2.0.4-FIX-01
    FixedThe signature on the profile page was not being savedUpdate Profile saved everything on the page except the signature, which has a save button of its own — so anyone who drew a signature and pressed Update Profile left the page without it being stored. The signature panel now sits in its own card, so it reads as something that stands on its own and carries its own save.
  • 2.0.4-FIX-02
    FixedRearranging dashboard cards could lose one for goodFor anyone with a watch list who had never arranged their dashboard, the first drag silently dropped one card from the saved layout — recoverable from Customize, but only if you noticed. Cards with nowhere to land are now appended instead of discarded, so a save can never come back with fewer cards than it went in with.
  • 2.0.4-FIX-03
    FixedA card ticked in Customize did not appearA card with nothing in it yet was dropped entirely, so ticking one in Customize and saving returned a screen that looked exactly as before, with no way to tell whether the choice had been kept. Cards you picked yourself now always appear, with a line saying they are empty — all eight of them.
