==Global System Upgrades==
The new features listed below are enhancements to the SmartSimple system and will be immediately available to SmartSimple users upon the application of the upgrade to their server:
===Major Updates===
<!--
====Enhanced Portal Shortcut Configuration====
Enhanced ability to configure portal shortcuts in any portal section. Instead of being limited to just a single section for all your shortcuts you may now add shortcuts to any portal section. You can also connect a shortcut to a list view in order to display aggregation summaries on the shortcut itself in the portal and to navigate to the list view.

====Bug Fix for User/Company Security Matrices Allow Permissions====
Fixed a bug with the User/Company security matrices, where allow permissions were being more restrictive rather than additive as they should be. Previously, if there was a user with two roles where one was set to allow edit of all other roles, and the other was set to allow edit of only one role, the user was restricted to only editing the latter. This upgrade will change the behaviour instead to combine the allow permissions in addition to each other.
<!--59597 - User Security Matrix issue-->
====Major Enhancements to User Interface====
Record, or object, pages have been updated for improved user experience and usability. Specific changes include:
# Lists of associated organizations, contacts, activities, etc. will be moved into a new left menu panel. The 'More' menu options will also be moved into this left menu.
# Notes will also be moved into the new left menu panel.
# Tabs created by Title Bar custom fields may move up to the top of the page depending on the layout of your custom fields.
# Any fields positioned above the set of Title Bar custom field tabs may become grouped into a new General tab. Currently, these fields always display at the top of the record as you scroll through the custom field tabs. However, the upcoming changes means that these fields will be hidden as you scroll through the custom field tabs. Note, that this change will not apply to systems that have generated a display order and customized the arrangement of standard fields.
# With these changes comes a new ability to dock the associated lists into a right-pane. This means that you'll be able to see the associated organizations and contacts concurrently with the application form.
<!--60909 - Revised object pages-->
Organization and contact record pages have also been updated for an improved look and feel. The default profile card has been updated with a new look.
<!--56545 - Contact/organization Card-->
====Minor Enhancements to User Interface====
Several minor enhancements to the interface have been made for improved user experience, and look and feel. Specific changes include:
* Updated look up lists for greater consistency and mobile responsiveness.
<!--56182 - Improved Ajax lookup-->
<!--59639 - Lookup in iphone/mobile-->
* Updated display of multiple file field custom fields for improved look and feel.
<!--60911 - Improved multiple file field list rendering-->
* Updated alert messages throughout the system for improved look and feel.
<!--60949 - New style for alerts Jquery-confirm-->
* Updated display of tabs throughout the system for improved look and feel.
<!--60940 - Improve navigation on custom field tabs-->
* Updated date/time pickers throughout the system for improved look and feel.
<!--60966 - Improved Start/End Time and Date Picker-->
* Removed dotted underline indicator from fields and moved any attributes such as field history, etc., out for greater visibility.
<!--58875 - Replace dotted underline labels-->
====New Buttons Have Moved Down to List View Action Bar====
The buttons to create new records has been moved from the top action bar down into the action bar of a list view. This was done for improved ease of use and consistency. With this change we've been able to enhance list views to more easily create objects of that type. For example, within a level 1 application, if you have the level 2 activities tabbed out into different types, e.g. reviews, payments, etc., you will be able to directly create those activities from the tabbed list view. Also due to this change, we've removed the ability to create new level 2s from within an organization record.
<!--60920 - Move new button above list-->
====Enhanced List Views Maps====
The map feature for list views has been updated for an improved experience and greater functionality. You can now dive into a record and specify the various addresses associated to the record whether it be from associated organizations or contacts.
<!--42294 - Maps Feature in List View-->
====New System Security Summary Page====
New System Security Summary page lets you easily review the security of your system at a glance. You can review this page regularly to identify any deprecated features still in use in your system, as well as any new features that we suggest you start using. A short description is included with each of the points to help you better assess the associated risks involved. This page can be found in Global Settings.
<!--61435 - Security audit page-->
====Enhancements to SmartCards====
Enhanced SmartCards with greater functionality. When sharing SmartCards with others, you can now also allow them to modify the list of records within the SmartCard too. On the flip side, you can also hide any SmartCard that has been shared with you that you don't want to see. You will also be notified via email any time someone shares a SmartCard with you.
<!--59780 - SmartCards UI/UX-->
====Enhanced Batch Update for Specific Fields====
Enhanced the batch update functionality within list views with the ability to now update specific field values.
<!--52806 - Batch update custom field values-->
===Minor Updates===
====Bug Fix for Portal Shortcut Display====
Fixed a bug with portal shortcuts that did not size them consistently all the time. This would have resulted in shortcuts of all different sizes in a portal. This has been updated instead with a more consistent styling to the shortcuts.
<!--60962 - Shortcut visual fixes-->
====Updated Width Setting for Custom Fields====
Updated the width setting for custom fields from a free text box instead to a select combo-box. This makes the creation of custom fields and forms even easier by having pre-set, and default field sizes. Fields that already have a value set for their width will still retain their previous setting.
<!--60917 - Field widths-->
====Extended Reader Log Functionality to Organizations and Contacts====
Extended the reader log functionality to organization and contact records. You can now log when organization and contact records are viewed.
<!--27000 - Reader Log on contacts field-->
====Added Brackets into Advanced Search Builder====
Added the ability to configure brackets into the advanced search expression builder. This gives a greater ability to create stronger search queries for your list views.
<!--24870 - Advanced Search: expression composer-->
====Added User Names into Data Exchange Logs====
Added the names of the sender as well as receiver of data exchange packages into the logs for easier troubleshooting. The data exchange feature is mainly used by the case management space.
<!--34393 - Data exchange: capturing name of contact sending/unpacking packages-->
====Updated Tabbed List Views with Ability to Search====
Updated tabbed list views with the ability to further search and filter the results. For example, when you have multiple tabbed level 2 list views you can now search within each.
<!--55051 - Enable Search within Tabs-->
====Extended Report Interactive View for Internet Enabled Reports====
Extended report interactive view for internet enabled reports. Previously internet enabled and externally accessed reports were not capable of this.
<!--48995 - Enabling Interactive view for Internet Enabled Reports-->
====Updated Annotations to Allow Editing Before Submission====
Updated the annotations feature to allow you to edit any annotations that you just created before you submit the form.
<!--54759 - Annotations feature enhancement requests-->
====New Ability to Search Media Library Fields====
Updated the sub fields for each media library custom field to now be searchable.
<!--60411 - Media Library - Searchable Sub Fields-->
==On-Demand System Upgrades==

===Major Updates===
====New Geo Mapping Custom Field Type====

61807 - External data source lookup
New custom field type to allow you to look up entities from third party data sources such as IRS
====New Activity Consolidation====
New ability to consolidate level 3 activities up to a single level 2 activity. This feature takes a copy of multiple level 2 activities and copies their level 3 activities into a brand new consolidated activity. For example, in the research management space where you have multiple review activities, each with their own comment activities, you may wish to copy and consolidate the reviews into a single combined review in order to publish.
