Features
5967 – Override Bond Number at Bid Bond Conversion Action (Contract Only)
When a Bid Bond is converted to a Final Bond, the bond number generated for the Bid Bond was not able to be overridden. Authorized users are now able to override the bid bond number by entering this manually during the bid bond conversion action. When performing the Bid Bond Conversion action, enter the new bond number in the ‘Existing Bond Number’ field, which will override the previous number from the Bid Bond.
NOTE: To control which users can override bond numbers, go to the allowed actions for the user role. This is located at: All>System Tables>Authority Levels>User Roles>Actions (for desired user role)> Bond Number Override.
5971 – Added Setting to Hide Retainage Amount from Initial Bond Information Page (Non-Bid Bonds - Contract Only)
A new setting has been added to not display the Retainage Amount field on the Initial Bond Information Page. This setting is located at: All>Setup>Settings>User Interface>Suppress Retainage Amount. To remove the field, enter ‘True’ in the value column for the setting. To include the field, enter ‘False’ in the value column for the setting.
NOTE: This setting will be delivered to clients as ‘False’.
6965 – Added the Bond Actions to the e-SURETY™ Localization Feature to Edit Bond Action Names
Each bond action can now be renamed to meet business needs. These actions are reflected in several areas of the e-SURETY™ application including the Bond Actions dropdown menu, Past Documents, Bond History, the bond Action-Status box, and the ‘Last Action’ column in the e-SURETY™ search queues.
The username for the user which performed each action is also listed in parenthesis within the Action-Status Box for the bond. This is kept on each historical record of the bond.
Fixes
5966 – Adjusted the Work in Progress (WIP) to Exclude Bid Bonds
The WIP had previously included all contract bonds in an account. This has been modified to only include non-Bid Bonds.
NOTE: Bid Bonds are determined by the Bid Bond Class delivered with any new instance of e-SURETY™. If additional bid bond classes are needed to be added, please contact e-SURETY™ Support for this to be configured.
6361 – Fixed the Expiration Date from being Adjusted when Recalculating Premium when Requoting a Bond Application
When requoting a bond application and overriding the expiration date for the bond, the ‘Recalculate’ button would subtract a day from the expiration date each time the recalculation was performed. This has been corrected to ensure the expiration date is not affected by the recalculation, and the expiration date is kept as it was entered.
7458 – Fixed the Category Bond Applications from being Dropped due to Changes made on the Bond Configuration
Certain actions taken on a bond configuration that has a Bond Category Application applied to it would cause the Bond Category Application for the bond configuration to dropped. This has been corrected to ensure the Bond Category Application can only be removed when deliberately removing it from the bond configuration.
