Usability Improvements
We're standardised the editing controls used to add, edit and delete rows in some grids in the system. In this update, we've implemented the change in the Property > Management Agreement > Auto Increases screen.
The Save and Cancel icons and the Edit and Delete icon are now to the right of the row.

Tasks
When viewing the Main Dashboard and the Strata Manager Dashboard, the My Open Tasks counter now includes all tasks from all branches or the user against each task type.
Work Orders
To minimise the risk of sending emails with oversized attachments, we've improved the functionality of existing Work Orders.
When adding attachments to a Work Order, the size of each file attached will now display in the Location Attachments section and the Email Attachments section.
When saving the Work Order, a prompt will display when the attached files exceed a combined size of 7 MB. Should this occur, please review large attachments and resample the file to ensure the combined size of all attachments do not exceed 7MB.
