Greetings Everyone:

This edition has some important information for you. What’s fixed and what’s not (yet), the new stuff. We value your input and ideas and we really do respond to them as quickly as time, money and development goals allow. So keep those emails and ideas coming! – We know you are the front line – you know more than us what you need. Tell us!

By Popular Demand We’re Killing the Captcha

We listen to you and respond. You complained about that darn captcha (one member who called me called it the craptcha) that is required when you forget or have to change your password. It will be gone in the next release. I’ve hated it from the beginning.

New Print Features Next Week – Here’s The Scoop

There are two major print out you will be able to generate from the control bar:

Print will create a two page PDF which you can print or email or whatever. It will include the Riskscreen on the first page and on the second page the expanded X-Mod History and X-Mod Trend Graphs along with the Rate Analysis Report. This is our new basic report.

Presentation Print will create a much longer report suitable for clients. It will also be a PDF so you can mail it or print it or whatever. Here are its pages (and you get to choose which you want when you print or as a set standard).

  • Cover page containing your logo and contact information
  • Riskscreen page
  • Risk Page containing the expanded graphs and Rate Analysis Report
  • Whatever number of pages containing (3 each) of the class code histogram and associated data for each class
  • The Cal/OSHA Case summary if it applies.

All of the pages will have your name and contact info and our copyright. As new information and charts and graphs are added to the database we will format and include it appropriately for you.

Modwatch Update Data will be Available by Download

Also by popular demand we will populate the Modwach pages with the last four week of downloads in case you miss or lose and email. There is more coming in the area in the future.

Updated Class Histograms
