OSM Model Changes From the Last Few Months

1. Building Module: The "Expiration Letter Sent" field is now read-only for the DWL Limited record type.  It was previously editable by jurisdiction staff. (10/20/2022)
2. Building Module: Work Flow Notification Email at Application Intake / Intake Requirements Needed. See article (11/3/2022)
3. ​Building Module: The "Type of Work" dropdown list has been modified to be more relevant for the Manufactured Dwelling record type.  The new list includes these values: Alteration, New, Other, Replacement. (11/8/2022)
4. Building Module: The event scripting to remove TCO, Deferred Submittal, and Revision conditions on the record has been modified/corrected.  Previously, when the script would automatically remove these conditions, the condition would be set to Inactive in the database, which would remove the banner, make the condition read-only, but the status was still "Applied".  Now, the condition status is simply changed to "Not Applied" which still removes the banner and the condition is available from the Conditions (Standard) page for reference. (11/9/2022)
5. Planning Module: Jurisdictions using the Planning module can now auto-pend inspections to the Planning Tracking record type.  For example, you can elect for "Initial Inspection" and "Follow-up Inspection" to always be Pended to every new Planning Tracking record created.  Please submit a help desk ticket by emailing ePermitsHelp.BCD@Oregon.gov if you are interested in implementing this enhancement for the Planning module.

6. Building Module: Fee item, "Earthquake resistant bracing system installation" (B_MFD_110) was corrected across all jurisdictions so that the state surcharge is assessed along with this fee item.  This was previously only occurring correctly for some jurisdictions. (11/29/2022)
7. Building Module: Workflow configuration has been updated to make the clock actions (the statuses that start, stop or close the workflow clock which is used for in-possession time tracking) on review tasks in the Building module to make them more consistent across all review types. (11/30/2022)
8. Building Module: New task status of "Certificate of Satisfactory Completion" added to commercial and residential structural C of O workflow task.​
   The Certificate of Satisfactory Completion report will now auto-generate for Commercial and Residential Structural record types when the (new) status of "Certificate of Satisfactory Completion Issued" is selected from the Certificate of Occupancy workflow task. It will also auto-generate from a Manufactured Dwelling siting record when the status is changed to "Inspection Process Complete" from the Inspection Process workflow task. (12/5/2022) A "CofO or CSC - which do I generate?" training document is coming soon!
