Maintenance changes

MAR 1109 - TA Cert – Make population of the TA field within CSL_S02 and the CSC_S02 Survey Header mandatory
MAR 1259 - Surveyors require being able to enter the Exception Request process without first having to sign and fail Submit
MAR 1278 - Automatically charge a Parcel Fee for Compiled Māori (ML) Plans

TPR 6175 – Plan Generation, Layout Sheets will not open due to two error messages: SQLDB Code:0 SQLSTATE S1000 followed by 32029 Line and Character position 0
TPR 6208 – Duplicate layout data (lines) generated by the application
TPR 6343 – Traverse/Boundary Capture Observation List doesn’t maintain its format when it is printed
TPR 10016 – Unable to add a manual 'TA Certification' to a Plan after it has been submitted
TPR 10146 – If a survey is opened by an Enabled User while another user has the same survey open, the survey cannot be locked and is put into read-only mode
TPR 10508 – Plan Generation not saving some Layout Edits

MAR 1109 - TA Cert – Make population of the TA field within CSL_S02 and the CSC_S02 Survey Header mandatory

MAR 1109 Description	TA Cert – Make population of the TA field within CSL_S02 and the CSC_S02 Survey Header mandatory
MAR 1109 Explanation	A Territorial Authority (TA) could be Notified that TA Certification is required, or they (TA) could pull an e-survey into the TA Workspace without the surveyor having assigned a TA in the CSC_S02 Survey Header screen. If the TA actually pulled an e-survey into their Workspace without being notified by the surveyor (no TA entered at capture by the surveyor), then the surveyor would be unable to add a TA name into the Survey Header and therefore not able to create a TA package on line. If a surveyor attempted to add a TA name into the Survey Header an error message would appear preventing the user from going any further: Several changes have been made to how the TA name is entered in an e-survey. These are listed below: The TA field in the Survey Header is now a 'View Only' field. The 'Add' and 'Delete' buttons have been deactivated. The TA field is now captured in the CSL_S02 Manage Survey Transaction screen. When Pre-validation is run on an e-survey, and the TA name has not been entered on the TA Certification Tab page, a new rule will run causing a Fatal fail that will prevent the e-survey from submitting. TAs are no longer able to pull a job into their Workspace if the surveyor has not specified a TA name in the e-survey.

MAR 1109 Description

TA Cert – Make population of the TA field within CSL_S02 and the CSC_S02 Survey Header mandatory

MAR 1109 Explanation

A Territorial Authority (TA) could be Notified that TA Certification is required, or they (TA) could pull an e-survey into the TA Workspace without the surveyor having assigned a TA in the CSC_S02 Survey Header screen.

If the TA actually pulled an e-survey into their Workspace without being notified by the surveyor (no TA entered at capture by the surveyor), then the surveyor would be unable to add a TA name into the Survey Header and therefore not able to create a TA package on line.

If a surveyor attempted to add a TA name into the Survey Header an error message would appear preventing the user from going any further:

Several changes have been made to how the TA name is entered in an e-survey. These are listed below:

The TA field in the Survey Header is now a 'View Only' field. The 'Add' and 'Delete' buttons have been deactivated.
The TA field is now captured in the CSL_S02 Manage Survey Transaction screen.
When Pre-validation is run on an e-survey, and the TA name has not been entered on the TA Certification Tab page, a new rule will run causing a Fatal fail that will prevent the e-survey from submitting.
TAs are no longer able to pull a job into their Workspace if the surveyor has not specified a TA name in the e-survey.

MAR 1259 - Surveyors require being able to enter the Exception Request process without first having to sign and fail Submit

MAR 1259 Description	Surveyors require being able to enter the Exception Request process without first having to sign and fail Submit
MAR 1259 Explanation	Problem: Surveyors were having to deliberately sign a CSD knowing that it is wrong. Submit must fail in order to invoke the Exception process. Also, enabled users to the Plan were unable to invoke an Exception Request. Outcome: The Exception button has now been enabled to operate at any time while the dataset remains editable i.e. Initiated or On Requisition. Functionality will not be available while the survey is in 'Read Only' mode. The Comment edit control, the 'OK' and the 'Send Request' buttons are enabled to allow a request to be entered, Saved and Sent by the Signing Surveyor and Enabled Users. The Cancel Exception button is only enabled if the status of the survey is Submission Failed.

MAR 1259 Description

Surveyors require being able to enter the Exception Request process without first having to sign and fail Submit

MAR 1259 Explanation

Problem:
Surveyors were having to deliberately sign a CSD knowing that it is wrong. Submit must fail in order to invoke the Exception process. Also, enabled users to the Plan were unable to invoke an Exception Request.

Outcome:

The Exception button has now been enabled to operate at any time while the dataset remains editable i.e. Initiated or On Requisition.
Functionality will not be available while the survey is in 'Read Only' mode.
The Comment edit control, the 'OK' and the 'Send Request' buttons are enabled to allow a request to be entered, Saved and Sent by the Signing Surveyor and Enabled Users.
The Cancel Exception button is only enabled if the status of the survey is Submission Failed.

MAR 1278 - Automatically charge a Parcel Fee for Compiled Māori (ML) Plans

MAR 1278 Description	Automatically charge a Parcel Fee for Compiled Māori (ML) Plans
MAR 1278 Explanation	For Māori Appellations created under Appellation Format of 'Māori', Landonline does not automatically populate the ML plan reference into the appropriate field. As a consequence no digital parcel fee ($25) was being automatically charged. The Validator had to modify the CCL_S07 - Generate Fee screen to charge the surveyor.

TPR 5777 – Crash dragging nodes from spatial window to the tree

TPR 5777 Description	Crash dragging nodes from spatial window to the tree
TPR 5777 Explanation	Default labelling of Nodes in the Spatial Window now ensures that nodes without marks have a valid label by default. Label is in the format UNKN + survey number.

TPR 6118 – Referential Constraint error caused by TA entry

TPR 6118 Description	Referential Constraint error caused by TA entry
TPR 6118 Explanation	Problem: An error occurred when Cancel capture was used after the TA had been recorded against the survey. The error prevented further capture. Outcome: Changes made by MAR1109 have resolved this issue. The error no longer occurs when cancel capture has been used on a plan where the TA has already been linked to the plan. The TA shown in the Survey Header remains.

TPR 6118 Description

Referential Constraint error caused by TA entry

TPR 6118 Explanation

Problem:
An error occurred when Cancel capture was used after the TA had been recorded against the survey. The error prevented further capture.

Outcome:
Changes made by MAR1109 have resolved this issue. The error no longer occurs when cancel capture has been used on a plan where the TA has already been linked to the plan. The TA shown in the Survey Header remains.

TPR 6002 – Referential Constraint error caused by TA entry

TPR 6002 Description	Referential Constraint error caused by TA entry
TPR 6002 Explanation	Auto Business Rule C040 code was commented out in 2002 because it was generating an Informix error rather than reporting the proximity of Datum 2000 marks to a survey. An Internal manual Checklist item R051 has been running in place. Subsequent upgrades of the spatial datablade appear to have fixed this issue.

TPR 6002 Description

Referential Constraint error caused by TA entry

TPR 6002 Explanation

Auto Business Rule C040 code was commented out in 2002 because it was generating an Informix error rather than reporting the proximity of Datum 2000 marks to a survey. An Internal manual Checklist item R051 has been running in place.

Subsequent upgrades of the spatial datablade appear to have fixed this issue.

TPR 6175 – Plan Generation, Layout Sheets will not open due to two error messages: SQLDB Code:0 SQLSTATE S1000 followed by 32029 Line and Character position 0

TPR 6175 Description	Plan Generation, Layout Sheets will not open due to two error messages: SQLDB Code:0 SQLSTATE S1000 followed by 32029 Line and Character position 0
TPR 6175 Explanation	Users can now extinguish all centreline easements into the Parcel List screen at capture (where they spatially exist in Landonline). When the user enters Plan Generation, the Define Diagrams (spatial window) and/or Layout Sheets will open successfully.

TPR 6208 – Duplicate layout data (lines) generated by the application

TPR 6208 Description	Duplicate layout data (lines) generated by the application
TPR 6208 Explanation	Duplicate layout data (lines) were being created by the application and affecting users when they applied modifications to those lines in the Plan Generation Layout window. This has been fixed

TPR 6343 – Traverse/Boundary Capture Observation List doesn’t maintain its format when it is printed

TPR 6343 Description	Traverse/Boundary Capture Observation List doesn’t maintain its format when it is printed
TPR 6343 Explanation	Problem: Arcs captured showed different From and To marks on a printout to those captured in the Traverse/Boundary Capture Observations screen before printing. Outcome: Printing will now correctly reflect capture.

TPR 6343 Description

Traverse/Boundary Capture Observation List doesn’t maintain its format when it is printed

TPR 6343 Explanation

Problem:
Arcs captured showed different From and To marks on a printout to those captured in the Traverse/Boundary Capture Observations screen before printing.

Outcome:
Printing will now correctly reflect capture.

TPR 10016 – Unable to add a manual 'TA Certification' to a Plan after it has been submitted

TPR 10016 Description	Unable to add a manual 'TA Certification' to a Plan after it has been submitted
TPR 10016 Explanation	Outcome: Supporting Documents on CSL_S07 has been amended to allow the addition of supporting docs for TA where the survey has a status of: 'Pre-allocate', 'Requisitioned', 'Approved', 'Not For Deposit', 'Requisition Pending Approval', 'Submitted', 'Validated', 'Validation Rework', 'Validated (Simple Plan)'. Three supporting document types (Schedule/Memorandum, TA Certificate and TA Certificate Image) can be added if the survey is either Initiated (Pre-allocated) or On Requisition (Requisitioned). After Submission and before Deposit (or Not for Deposit), the surveyor can still add one supporting document (TA Certificate). After the survey is registered or set to Not for Deposit, the survey cannot be searched for in the TA Certification window. If no TA is specified for the survey, the survey cannot be searched for in TA Certification window. All other statuses will prohibit the addition of supporting docs.
