Hour calculators now keep their active status from MSF
Hour calculators that are deactivated in MSF are no longer offered in MSR. F106521 | 2026-05
Introduction
Hour calculators are managed in MSF, but until now every imported hour calculator was marked as active in MSR, even if it had been deactivated in MSF. Deactivated hour calculators therefore stayed selectable in MSR indefinitely. With this update the active status is imported from MSF, so MSR always shows the current status.
Who is this feature relevant for?
- Administrators who maintain hour calculators in MSF
- Users who select an hour calculator for a project or account
Benefits at a glance
- The status of an hour calculator in MSR always matches MSF.
- Deactivated hour calculators no longer appear when you select an hour calculator.
- Fewer mistakes: you can no longer pick an hour calculator that is no longer valid in MSF.
Feature explanation
When hour calculators are imported from MSF, MSR now also takes over whether an hour calculator is active. Before, every hour calculator was set to active on each import. Now the status from MSF is used.
This also applies to hour calculators that already exist in MSR. At the next import, an hour calculator that has been deactivated in MSF is set to inactive in MSR as well, and it no longer appears in the lists where you select an hour calculator.
Set-up / Implementation time
No configuration is needed in MSR. MSF must be on a version that includes the update for the active status of hour calculators.
