===Major Updates===
====Deprecation of Non-Compact Classic Header====Deprecated the non-compact classic header. All systems will automatically be switched over to use the compact header. The non-compact classic header is no longer supported or available.
<!--119952 - Deprecate the non-compact header-->
[[File:2021-11-ticket-119952-2.png|thumb|none|800px|All headers will automatically be converted to use the compact style.]]
====Updated Visibility of Features Under the Menu for Global Administrators====
Updated what features appear to '''Global Administrators''' under the menu icon located at the top right of the header. '''Global Administrators''' previously saw features like '''Organization Hierarchy''' and '''Email Broadcast''' automatically under the menu icon, regardless of the menu role permissions set for these features. To ensure your '''Global Administrators''' have a seamless experience after the upgrade we suggest you adjust your settings to give '''Global Administrators''' menu access to the features they use prior to the upgrade.
 
For example, to ensure '''Global Administrators''' can see the '''Organization Hierarchy''' go to '''Menu Icon''' > '''Global Settings''' > '''Security''' > '''System Feature Permission''' > '''Menu''' tab and add the desired roles to '''Organization Hierarchy - Menu Access'''. An easy way to adjust these settings is to go to '''Role Based Entry Mode'''. Then click the desired role and check what you wish to see and save.
 
<u>'''Note:'''</u> Some features have two settings: one for the ''visibility'' of the feature under the menu (found under the '''Menu''' tab) and another for ''access'' to the feature (found under the '''Feature''' tab).
 
<!--128360 - Issues when configuring access to Email Broadcast-->
[[File:2021-11-ticket-128360-1.png|thumb|none|800px|Menu access permission will be enforced for Global Administrators. If a Global Administrator is not granted access to the above menu items, they will no longer see these links after the upgrade.]]
====Enhanced List View Search====
Enhanced the list view search to always display the '''Type''', '''Status''', '''Column''', and '''Filter''' dropdowns to make searching more intuitive. These drop downs filters previously were only visible when you clicked into the search box.
