Machines screen:
- It treats each card as it's own machine and totals up all your machines to give your total active PPD.
- There was a progress bar for each card initially, but I borked it in the settings. Have to fix that.
Work Unit Screen
- Work Units info and history is now available. No longer do you have to scroll through the log to gather info.
- There is a very useful set of filters that you can use to sort through the history.
- This is the first time I have seen Stanford make this type of info available to the end user.
- So far, I have 21hrs of Work Unit info displayed on the screen. I will update with how much history it holds at one time.
