Additional minor release items:

  • Adding mentions:

When entering comments, you can use the mentions feature that allows you to attract somebody's attention to the comment and send a notification to the mentioned user via email.

To add a mention enter the "+" or "@" sign anywhere in the comment text - a list of the portal users will open. To simplify the search process, you can start typing a name in the comment field - the user list will change as you type. Select the necessary person from the list. Mentioning the user will provide access to the document only if the mentioned user has the valid access rights.The mentioned user will receive an email notification that he/she has been mentioned in a comment. 

  • If there are approvers available on a draft document, the document can be edited only by enforcing a version change:

If there are approvers available on a draft document, the document can be edited only by enforcing a version change. The system should only allow the edit of the document, if none of the approvers have approved/rejected yet, and in that case, there should be a new version of the document being created. 

As soon as an approver approves/rejects the document, the system should lock the document for any edits and the document can’t be edited anymore without creating a new version.

In that case, the document owner would see the following message in red color, on the approvers tab, above the grid:

“One of the approvers has already responded to the approval workflow. If you’d like to edit the document, please create a new version.”

 

  • New Tickets summary and details reports under the Reports module

Tickets can be filtered by status and showcase the time they were closed. The tickets can be filtered according to closing date. Additionally, the new reports display the updates that have been made to a ticket, such as notes added, resolutions.

 

  • Redirect user to last page visited after successful login:
