The ProPricer installation process includes a new server configuration tool called ProPricer ServerConfig. It can quickly validate a selected SSL certificate, and automatically complete a single-endpoint configuration. To learn how to use ProPricer ServerConfig, go to the ProPricer Installation Guide.
The following changes improve the integration of BOE Pro with ProPricer Contractor Edition:
A new system-level setting called Assembly/Part Name Template uses variables to determine how materials are automatically named and uniquely identified in the global material libraries. After an assembly or part name is created, you can still edit it to fit your needs.
Using the variable [Part Number] will automatically create names that include part numbers. If the template also has your own material fields as variables, like [Plant Code], the field values entered for items will appear with their names. Using material fields in the template lets you have multiple items with the same part number, as long as each item has a different combination of material field values.
In Material View, the Cost Source lookup lets you find cost sources for materials by name or part number. Looking up by part number shows all purchase orders, quotes, etc. for the items that have the same part number combined with different material field values.
A new setting called Consolidate Material By lets you consolidate by the part name or number. It’s available at the system level, and it can be set differently for a specific proposal during the consolidation setup.
Consolidating by the part number is useful when the Assembly/Part Name Template system setting contains the variable [Part Number] along with variables for material fields. In this case, you could have multiple items with the same part number and different material field values. The consolidation process will ignore the material fields, and only consider the part number.
In a proposal, you can edit part and assembly information without affecting the material libraries. Running the unit cost consolidation process or the update material process in the proposal will replace the changes with the library information. The most advantageous aspect of this enhancement is the ability to create a fully indented bill of materials structure directly in a proposal.
Assemblies and parts can have associated costs for individual quotes, purchase orders, etc. Now you can enter those costs at the material level or the cost source level. If a source has associated costs and you select it for a part or assembly in a proposal, the source’s associated costs are applied to it.
ProPricer can convert dimensions of material parts from one measurement to another according to standard conversion factors. This allows easy comparison between cost sources that measure materials differently. While entering information for a part, you can select a unit of measure for it in the UM column.
Users can access ProPricer with an Azure Active Directory login instead of a ProPricer or Windows login.
While setting up a bill of materials, you can quickly copy material field values or resource field values from a parent item to all of its children. This eliminates repeated data entry for each child. In the Material Input grid of Material View or Task View, right-click an item > Fill Down, then select what to copy.
If a user gets disconnected from their ProPricer session, the session will remain active on the server for five minutes, allowing the client to automatically reconnect without interruption. Additionally, when a disconnection occurs, the message that appears now indicates one of three possible causes: connection loss, server shut down, or disconnected by system administrator.
To lengthen or shorten the five-minute reconnect timeout period, go to your ProPricer installation directory, and edit EBS.ProPricer.Client.config.json and ProPricerServer.config.json. In these configuration files, change the ReconnectTimeout value from 300 seconds to the desired length of time. It is recommended that both files have the same value.
In this report, the Reference Text Input options let you display labor hours along with the cost elements.
The new Field Editing (material) feature is similar to the existing what-ifs for editing task fields or resource fields in a proposal. It lets you change material field values for parts and assemblies throughout a proposal quickly and accurately.
A new button on the External Data ribbon provides a shortcut for opening the ProPricer Import/Export Tool.
Summary fields appear for parts and assemblies in a proposal. You can now sort, filter, or distribute materials by any summary field, not just by task name.
The archive process no longer allows creating proposal archives for any 9.3 version of ProPricer.
In a proposal’s unit cost formula, you can use the function Days(EndDate, StartDate) to get the number of days between two dates entered in user-defined material fields. For example, if the date material fields are named Start and End, the function would be Days([End], [Start]).
The fields you can add to a report layout in Report Designer now include all of the Total Definition elements in a proposal’s algorithm. In previous versions of ProPricer, only Total Fee Element and Total Price Element were available Report Designer fields.
3.5. 101.2
Only compatible with version 9.5 of ProPricer Contractor Edition Enterprise
After syncing a proposal with the latest estimates from ProPricer Contractor Edition, BOE formulas update automatically with a factor that reflects the percentage of change. For example, if a resource's amount of hours decreased by 10%, then the formula for that estimate multiplies by 0.90 to produce the correct result.
In the Email Configuration settings, a new Test button lets you check your configuration by sending a test email to a specified address.
In the system-level and proposal-level settings, a new Predictive Text slider lets you enable or disable predictive text in BOE sections. To set this function for all proposals, go to System Settings. To set it differently in a proposal, go to the proposal's Estimates settings.
Since a proposal must be unlocked before submitting it or syncing its data, the Submit and Sync processes now recognize a locked proposal and prompt you to unlock it. To do this, your role needs the Lock/Unlock Proposals permission.
The Add User process is redesigned for simplicity and fewer clicks. After clicking Add User, you can choose a login type from a dropdown menu in the New User window. The remaining settings automatically change according to the type selected. Additionally, the ProPricer login type has been renamed to BOE Pro.
To prevent confusion in BOE View, the Lock icon only appears next to a PBS element that is locked. If an element is unlocked, there is no icon instead of a differently colored icon.
