Major Enhancements and Fixes
BOS Import
You can now use a BOS Import to create new rows in the BOS Grid. You can add each team member in the BOS Import as an individual row and this will create a new row in the BOS Grid. For more information.
New Campus Chargeback
When you use the Campus Chargeback you can chargeback to a common campus area across all of the teams in the region. A campus relates to a building's immediate parent region only and a campus in Serraview would be a group of buildings under their immediate parent.
In this example, the Building 2 has the Campus charge rule set for a space and this will make the parent region for the campus, Georgia.
Parent Region | Region | Building |
---|---|---|
No Parent (this is the top region) | All Buildings | |
All Buildings | North America | |
North America | United States | |
United States | Georgia | |
United States | Illinois | |
United States | California | |
Georgia | Atlanta | Building 1 |
Illinois Chicago | Building 4 | |
California San Francisco | | Building 5 |
The new charge rules are called Campus Common All and Campus Common Internal. Also, the 325 Chargeback Report has been updated to include the Campus Chargeback.
Minor Enhancements and Fixes
Space Optimization
Enhancement – The following enhancement was made to the Demand Forecasting user interface:
- In the Demand Grid the Workpoints column has been renamed to Headcount, refer to Demand Grid.
- In the Demand form's Overview tab, the Workpoints field has been renamed to Headcount and the Target Ratio field has been added, refer to Add a Demand planned adjustment and Edit a Demand planned adjustment.

Enhancement – The Workpoint Import contains the new Workplace notes column, which if left blank, can be used to bulk clear the workplace notes, refer to Workpoint Import and Workplace and Requirements for Workpoint Data.
Fix – The Workpoint Import has been corrected so if a workpoint is being imported has the same name as the zone then the import will match to the workpoint not the zone.

Smart Environments
MLS-3.19.10
Enhancement – MLS General Performance - This allows the MLS to process larger amounts of utilization data as Clients introduce additional devices.
Enhancement – HTTP Queue/Timeout Configuration - Added the ability to configure the HTTP listener timeouts and queue lengths. This provides MLS a greater buffer, if required, which helps to avoid the Windows Server from rejecting inbound traffic due to an exhausted queue. Also, this can improve MLS performance at peak times.
Fix – Skipped VLAN Switch Scans - The VLAN switch scans were corrected so that VLANs with no active users will not be flagged as "inactive" during full switch scans. Therefore, they will not be skipped on subsequent quick switch scans.
Fix – MLS Logging - The MLS file logging was corrected to record the username of the individual who makes any MLS Admin changes to the configuration.
Fix – Archive of switches now does not archive the utilization data sources.
- No labels
