What's New in TPM Explore the enhancements we added this month

September 2019

Spotlight

Restrict Editing of Imported Requirements

Organisation Administrators can now restrict the editing of imported standard compliance requirements by selecting the following two settings (Prevent editing of Set Up Requirement page and Prevent editing of subcontract status) on the Edit Primary Organisation page. These settings when enabled can ensure that your imported standard compliance requirements are not edited. To learn more about this feature, see topic Edit Head Contractor Primary Organization Settings.

 

Pound Sign (#) and No. Removed

Beginning this month, TPM will no longer include the pound sign (#) when referencing draw and contract numbers. For example, Period # will now display as Period 1, Contract #1 will now show as Contract 1.

 

 

Enhancements

Head Contractors

  • New settings on the Edit Primary Organisation page give you the ability to determine which organisational changes will trigger an organisational level hold. After a Textura Administrator enables organisation level holds, you can choose for the application to place an organisation level hold when a Subcontractor changes the organisation name, bank account information, or tax ID.
  • The Manage Statutory Declarations, View Statutory Declarations, and the Mange Statutory Declarations by Period pages are updated to remove redundant links. In addition, you can now access the Manage Statutory Declarations by Period page directly from the Compliance menu; and the Manage Statutory Declarations by Period page now includes organisation and contract pickers.
  • The Add Sub-Tier and Edit Sub-Tier pages have been updated to improve usability. On the Add Sub-Tier page after selecting Save, the system will navigate you to the Manage Statutory Declarations by Period page with the newly added Sub-Tier in context. On the Edit Sub-Tier page after selecting Update, you will now remain on the Edit Sub-Tier page, the system does not navigate you to the Status page.

Subcontractors

Moving forward, in order to participate on a project, your bank account and project location must belong to the same country. If your bank account country differs from the country in which the project resides, you can create a second organisation and include banking information from that country.

Owners

You can now select to disburse an individual HC progress claim using manual cheque. Use the Edit Payment Status page to switch payment option for an individual HC progress claim from EFT to Manual cheque or vice versa. The change will not affect On System Sub-Tiers. Note that signed statutory declaration documents are removed when a HC progress claim is switched to manual cheque payment option.
