3.4 Web & Mobile App	Minor Release	Aug 2017	The 3.4 release brings the following new features and enhancements: • The option to add non-technical PDF documents to a project, and insert them into created PDF reports. This will allow project managers to upload company-specific documents such as invoices or inspection approvals to include with a standard project report. • The addition of a new field type for project attributes: Date. This field allows users to enter a date attribute using an optimized date-picker tool, so that installers and project managers may record inspection, maintenance, and installation dates with reduced error. • The addition of a new field type for project attributes: Numeric Text. This field allows users to capture data similar to the Free Text field, but only allows the entry of numeric data (up to 3650), allowing installers, inspectors, and project managers to capture discrete numeric time periods (such as days, weeks, months, or years) with reduced error. • The addition of a new field type for project attributes: Text Box. This field allows users to enter free form alphanumeric text, up to 800 characters, allowing for comprehensive comments and notations that are easily readable within the application and within reports. • The capability for back-office project managers to configure attribute fields to only be editable by back-office users (within the back-office application or mobile app). Fields can now be designated to only be editable by back-office level users. • The capability for back-office project managers to configure attribute fields to be editable within the reader view for CFS-DM. Third parties, such as inspectors, who view item details outside of the CFS-DM mobile app by scanning the item’s QR Code can now have the option to edit specified data for an item, such as adding inspection status or comments. • Varied UI and user experience updates, including the exposure of consolidated item counts within the hierarchy view of a sub-project. • Varied bug fixes and performance improvements.
