About this build
The highlight of this maintenance build is the completion of the new Reports window, which can be found in the Special section under Statistics. We are thus laying the foundation for Excel-based reporting, which will improve the evaluation options of the database. In addition, the maintenance build again includes various minor improvements and bug fixes.
Note for macOS: you need macOS 10.15 (Catalina) to install this build.
Report window
Providing meaningful evaluations is a challenge for any law firm software. Standard reports are often not satisfactory, as law firms in different countries and with different set-ups have very different needs. Programming individual reports, on the other hand, is time-consuming and expensive, which is why only a few law firms take this route. The new report window closes a gap here. Based on the Excel-compatible 4D View Pro PlugIn, reports can now be created and rolled out much more easily and cost-effectively. We have described the new function in detail in a separate FAQ article.
In the download area of the help centre we also offer a (hopefully) soon growing collection of interesting sample report templates, which you can simply download and add to your report window. You can find a first report template here and we hope that more templates from the timeSensor community will follow soon.
Analysis of the read/write permissions in your infrastructure
After we introduced the performance analysis in the last build, with which you can measure the working speed of your infrastructure, in this build we have added the possibility to check the read/write permission in the file system. The background is that the database must have full read/write permissions in various directories, otherwise the operating system denies access. Such 'permissions denied' errors are not uncommon and can have various reasons such as misconfigured access rights or errors in the file system. In any case, timeSensor LEGAL will not work properly if the operating system denies access here and there. The new tool helps the administrator and the support team to detect such errors. You will also find it in the "Support" dialogue, provided you have administration rights in timeSensor LEGAL.
Upload documents via Cloud Drive
The Cloud Drive functionality has been extended by a - UPLOAD - folder. Until now, the Cloud Drive followed a "top-down" logic: You put a document into the document archive of timeSensor LEGAL and it is automatically pushed into the Cloud Drive. With the UPLOAD folder, the opposite is now possible. timeSensor LEGAL automatically creates an UPLOAD folder in each mandate. As soon as a file is copied into the UPLOAD folder, timeSensor LEGAL recognises this and informs the client manager of the corresponding mandate with a ticket about the new file. The manager can then retrieve the document from the UPLOAD folder and archive it in timeSensor LEGAL or process it in another way.
In combination with "Next Cloud", "ownCloud", "TeamDrive" or similar products, this enables secure data exchange with clients via a web interface.
