- Payments (i.e., completed receipts) on the workfile can be exported to the DMS
- Failed exports at RO close can now be retried without re-opening the repair order

Diagnostics: Dashboard Calibration Queues
There are two new Calibration queues in the Diagnostics Dashboard. The new queues provide improved visibility to calibration exceptions on workfiles.
No Calibration Event
This list includes workfiles without a calibration scan event. The estimate may or may not include a line for a calibration operation. A workfile will appear in this queue when:
- Workfile does not contain any calibration events
- Workfile does not appear in any Pre-Repair Scan queue
A workfile may ultimately have multiple calibration events. When even one calibration event is saved to the workfile, the workfile is removed from the No Calibration Event queue.
Figure 9
No Estimate Line
This list includes workfiles without a calibration line on the estimate. Workfiles in this list may or may not have a calibration event. A workfile will appear in this queue when:
- Workfile does not contain any calibration operations on the estimate
- Workfile does not appear in any Pre-Repair Scan queue
A workfile may ultimately have multiple calibration line items on the estimate. When even one calibration operation is added to the estimate, the workfile is removed from the No Estimate Line queue.
