Stronger Security and Anti-misuse Features
Starting
from this version, modification of preset formula on the system is prohibited
because columns with preset formula are no longer selectable. Therefore, users can
only select cells where they can enter valid data. The second sheet is neither
eligible to be selected nor to be modified. The Anti-misuse feature is added to prevent users from ruining the prefixed content of the system and so that the system will function well. As seen on the picture above, Entering data with non numeric characters is now prohibited on the work area except on the Disclosures area.
Another Anti-misuse function is found in the classifications columns but this feature will be discussed on my other posts.
The next Anti-misuse feature will be a great improvement for the "Budget Table" since making allotments for projects you want to realize become strict because you can no longer make projects that has an estimated value greater than your earnings.
In the picture above, given an Earnings Balance of 3,000.00, the fourth project having an estimated value of Php 1 is no longer permitted since I have recorded three projects which has a total of Php 3000 and adding Php 1 more will exceed my earnings.
Themes and Highlights
The system adapted the v6.0’s main feature: themes and highlights.
The theme for the CMS 7N would be NEON with “AR ESSENCE” font face for the celebration of NEW YEAR. This is why the system has a version extension of N.

The System will have the Neon Theme |

The highlights extends until the last cell of the row. |
Cells are now wider that can support values not exceeding 5 whole numbers (meaning up to 99,999). The support means that it can still show the value and not showing ‘########’. Users can still record amount greater than 99,999 but there’s a low possibility that the system will show the value.

The iCMS 7N's Bottom Rows (The Neon Violet Rows) |
The rows after the Grand Total Row have been reduced to 2. Now, it only pertains to the 2 Averages. This solves the problem on the large gray areas on the system on the previous versions of CMS.

The CMS 6.0E Bottom Rows (The Dark Blue Rows) |
The Descriptions about the average is found between the fourth and fifth sheets. Blank cells in the average row contain “N/A”.
System Details
The v6.1.1’s System detail is adapted in CMS 7N but it has been moved to the Grand Total Row on the fifth section of the system.

The System Details (The rows with fire like color) |
To sum up the general positive effects of the
upgrade, here are some of the issues solved.
1.
The CMS 7N fixed the reported slow performance
of the system.
2.
Users will no longer record the projects
purchased twice because of the inclusion of the budget table in the first
sheet. The merging helps the user determine when he bought the item planned.
3.
Users will no longer have to select multiple sheet
tabs to use other functions.
4.
Blank cells on the sheets have been reduced to
maximize each sheet’s cells.
5.
The creation of Sections helps users find necessary
and appropriate information based on what section he puts a valid data.
6.
Additional Concepts help users find more ways to
manage their cash.
7.
Lesser format problems.
