Accruent Observe 23.06 Release Notes

We're delivering this automatic upgrade on June 20, 2023, with the following highlights:

  • Our new Executive Dashboard shows the most essential energy usage information over a time period at a quick glance.

  • We updated 8 pages to the new smart table for a better experience searching, filtering, and sorting data.

New Executive Dashboard

VXOB-6179

We're rolling out our new Executive Dashboard showing energy use by type, indication of energy use versus budgeted amounts, total energy costs per site, and vendor costs. This dashboard is still in development, but you can check out its current capabilities in the Mobile Dashboard at Energy Dashboards > Executive Dashboard.

Improvements and issues fixed

Component Summary Reference #
Accounting Periods

The bottom of the calendar for selecting the end of month value on the New Fasical Year page is no longer hidden behind the page footer, which previously made it impossible to select certain dates.

VXOB-5965
All Bills

We relocated the Utility Bill Type column next to Bill Number to make reading the data on the All Bills page more intuitive. We also added messaging reminding you that, to show data on the page, you must first select a Bill Date.

VXOB-6530
Call Escalation Suppression Call escalation now only suppresses multiples calls if they are from the site and the same phone number, not from different sites using the same phone number. VXOB-5584
Controller, Channels, and Topology

The Filters tool for these smart tables now appears on the appropriate spot on the page for ease of use.

VXOB-6667
Energy Comparison Tile, Dashboard

The Energy Comparison tile now compares energy usage by year instead of month by default. We removed the Previous fiscal period and Previous month options as these were causing calculation issues.

 

We also added a background color to the change percentage with green indicating a favorable change and red indicating an unfavorable change.

Flagged Conditions

You now have the option to show all captured telemetry data values that have triggered a flagged condition on the Detail page. Previously, you could only see the most recently captured value.

VXOB-5573
Flagged Conditions

We updated logic so that if a flagged condition is triggered from telemetry data outside of occupancy hours, we keep the flagged condition open. Previously, the flagged condition could close due to a timeout.

VXOB-6311
Flagged Conditions, Email Notifications

Email notifications from a Closed Flagged Condition now send as intended if the controller is linked with the site asset.

Manage Calendar

You can now add effective start and end dates to a calendar with setpoints.
