OSM Model Changes From the Last Few Months

1. Building Module: ​Changed some custom fields to be required for Commercial & Residential Demolition record types. (8/16/2022)
2. All Modules: All alert messages have been updated to include the module to make it more obvious which module the record belongs to. For example: A BUILDING payment has been made on record xxxx. (8/18/2022)
3. Onsite Module: The "Renewal Follow Up Letter ATT Systems" report has been updated so that the email button is now available after the report is generated. (8/18/2022)
4. Building Module: The scripting for assessing the Commercial Electrical multifamily wiring fee now honors the fee schedule that was in effect, based on the open date of the record.  This is similar to the way that tech, plan review, and CET fees work. (8/18/2022)
5. Public Works Module: Add new optional workflow task of 'Additional Review' has been added to the Public Works Tracking record to allow additional flexibility when assigning reviews. (8/23/2022)
6. Building Module: Previously, custom field form could not be saved when the "Category of Construction" value was "Other" or "Mixed Use".  This has been corrected so that form can be saved for both values. (8/30/2022)
7. Building Module: The "Fee Description Search" report parameters, "Select Module" and "Select Fee Status" were both missing the dropdown values.  This has been corrected. (8/31/2022)
8. Onsite Module: New custom fields have been added to the Onsite Site Evaluation record type to record Bottomless sand filter information. (9/21/2022)
9. Building Module: The code edition fields in the building record types have been set to not viewable for ACA. (9/26/2022)
10. Building Module: 1 and 2 family dwellings that are over 3 stories must be reviewed according to the OSSC. New values have been added to the code edition dropdown for residential structural and 1 & 2 family dwelling record types for those types of projects (for example: ‘2022 Structural Specialty Code (for >3 stories)’.  (9/27/2022)
11. Building Module: 'Revisions Needed' and 'Revisions Received' statuses were added to the Inspection Process task within the residential electrical, mechanical and plumbing record types. Selecting 'Revisions Received' will create a revision record just as it does from other tasks in the workflow. (9/30/2022) 
12. Building Module: Added 2022 to the code edition drop downs for the Structural Specialty Code (commercial structural) and Mechanical Specialty Code (commercial mechanical).  The new code editions became effective October 1st. The OMSC will become mandatory 1/1/2023 and the OSSC will be mandatory as of 4/1/2023. (10/3/2022)
13. All Modules: The Expiration Letter has been enhanced so that it can be generated for a single record. (10/3/2022) See article for details.
14. Building Module: On Residential Plumbing records, the custom field named, "Water Service Line - interior diameter 2 inches or larger" is now visible after the record is created.  The reason for adding it is so that you can see when a public user updates this field. (10/6/22)
15. Public Works Module: New driveway custom fields have been added to the Public Works Tracking record type in some agencies where it was missing. (10/6/22)
16. Building module: Installed new Write It/Cite it standard comments based on the October 1st code updates. (10/18/22)
17. Building Module: A Yes/No field has been added to the ACA custom fields for customers to indicate when their single family dwelling application also includes a 600 amp service or greater. We’ve also added the field to the post-intake custom fields form so that when reviewing the application, staff is able to see that it has been selected. The field is optional and not required. Additionally, if the customer selects Yes, the system will now create an alert stating: ACA BUILDING Single Family Dwelling application submitted within the last five days that includes 600 amp service or greater is now ready to be reviewed (including an email alert for those agencies that take advantage of that feature). This enhancement does not include fee scripting so agencies will need to determine if any additional fees are due. (10/18/22)
18. Building Module: You can now assign Building records to an individual, such as a permit tech, for tracking the lifecycle of the permit. The assignment is done through the Description of Work page. (10/18/22)

You can use the record list filter named, "Records Assigned to Me - All" to track your assigned records.

Additionally, there is a new report available through Report 1 under Workflow called, "Assigned Building Records" that can be used for tracking all assigned Building records.
