- Welcome to WaverlyStreet's "QuickRef Project Assistant" 2.2
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- QuickRef is a record keeping and reporting tool which allows you to quickly
- and accurately keep track of time and money put towards various "projects",
- and to keep notes about them. Although it was written specifically to assist
- in construction project management, it can be used in any field.
-
- QuickRef records time and money, shows "to do" items, and helps you keep
- written notes on each project. You can use it in either an "individual" mode,
- or record items for any number of people.
-
- QuickRef can instantly print reports including:
-
- - "Snapshots" on one particular project, showing the total time and money
- invested, "to-do" items, plus project notes to date. Time records may be
- broken down by worker, if in multi-user configuration.
-
- - Comparative reports showing project time and money in relation to selected
- other projects currently underway.
-
- - "To-Do" lists, showing project header information and all "to-do" items.
-
- - Project lists, including note and status fields.
-
- Permanently archive records on closed projects, maintaining instant access for
- future reference. Mirror records on an office network so that several users
- may share information.
-
- QuickRef does not require that you conform to a new project numbering scheme.
- It will work with any system where the alpha-numeric "project number" does not
- exceed eight characters in length. If your numbering scheme is well
- structured, the QuickRef report section can be easily tailored to pick only
- certain types of projects, according to the placement of project number
- characters. (ie: report on all projects where the "n"th character is "x", or
- where the first two characters are "yz", etc.) The program also works equally
- well with completely unstructured project identifications.
-
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- New in version 2.2
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Added registration code algorithm and made straight nagware. No restrictions
- on program operation, no need to reinstall the program after registering.
-
- Fixed bug where incorrect ending date was stated in a Snapshot report
- containing both time and money records from both current and archive data.
-
- Made it so that in a Snapshot report you may include your choice of time
- and/or money line items, rather than just all or none.
-
- Made it so that when you select "all" projects in reports, a list of all are
- displayed - just like with any other selection option. This way, you may
- select all, then pick off only the few you didn't want included.
-
- Added search function to the single project screen.
-
- Added the subdivision tag to the screen display of line items, and also a
- feature where subdivision names can be quickly seen (for reference) from the
- single project screen.
-
- Added option to show subdivision breakdowns in snapshot reports.
-
- Added a warning box to indicate that a mirror update has failed - in case you
- aren't logged on to your network.
-
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Other recent changes (version 2.1)
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Enhanced network mirror privacy of worker pay rate information that might be
- maintained by a supervisor running the program in multi-worker mode.
-
- Added feature where all data files may be re-sorted and the network mirror
- updated in one un-attended operation.
-
- Made "Yes" the default choice on updating the mirror at program shut-down.
-
- Fixed bug in date input routine where only the current year could be used for
- new and revised entry dates.
-
- Fixed problem with multi-user time breakdown, where only those individuals
- with three-character initials were being included.
-

- Registration
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- To encourage future program development, please register QuickRef. In
- exchange, I will send you a working registration code to enter at the opening
- screen. Once a valid code is entered, the display of the opening screen will
- be permanently "turned off". Please see the order form (order.txt) for
- registration options.
-
- Registration costs $35 (US), and is greatly appreciated! Your registration
- code will work on all subsequent versions of QuickRef too. Check back at the
- web site from time to time to see if I've put out a new version.
