Overview
Watch this video to get a general overview of the new features in this release.
To watch this video in full screen, please click on the full screen button on the bottom right.
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
Updated List View Interface
Enhanced the user interface in several areas for greater ease of use and consistency in experience. The List View selector has been moved into the List View action bar. This was done to introduce more consistency into List Views across the system, and to make it easier to edit your List Views directly from this updated action button.
We've also updated the look and feel of the Organization Hierachy and SmartFolders with new icons.
Enhanced Security Token Implementation for Standard Fields
Enhanced security for standard fields by introducing security tokens to be validated against upon save. This functionality has existed for custom fields and has now been extended to include standard fields as well. No change in behaviour is expected from this change.
New Visualization Chart for Record History
New chart feature to help you visualize all your activities. This chart plots the activities surrounding a record as well as its status history. Use this to easily review the timeline of a record and determine its relationship with each surrounding activity throughout its history.
New Pending Workflow Indicator
New visual indicator to show whether a record has pending workflow tasks waiting to run. This icon will be displayed when viewing a record and can be clicked to display the list of workflow tasks still pending.
New Configuration Folders
New Configuration Folders feature within SmartFolders. While the files within SmartFolders are stored as files within the SmartSimple application system, the new Configuration Folders will store files within the SmartSimple database. The advantage of this will be improved ability to transfer these across environments during your change management process via tools such as the Test2Production change promotion tool. Future enhancements can be built around these files to store more meta data related to the file, such as tracking changes and file versioning. Please note that there is a 16MB size limitation on files stored within Configuration Folders.
New Trimming of Trailing/Leading Spaces on Inputs
New functionality to trim leading and trailing empty spaces for single line inputs throughout the system. This is to prevent data entry and copy/paste errors that include extraneous spaces.
New Restriction Against Common Passwords
New password dictionary introduced for enhanced security. Enabled by default, this feature validates attempts to update your password, against a dictionary of commonly-used passwords. Attempts to set your password to an easy to guess and insecure password will fail. This will enforce the use of strong passwords throughout all users in your system. A setting to disable this feature can be found in the Global Settings.
Minor Updates
Updated and brought back the Next and Back navigation buttons that progress through record tabs. These updated buttons will now also float above the save bar, so as to be visible without having to scroll to the bottom of the page as was previously necessary.
Enhanced User/Company List Views to Display Roles and Categories
Enhanced the user and company list views with the ability to list user roles and company categories as columns in the list. Note: this is just for display purposes, as the search filtering will not include this column.
New Copy Workflow Functionality
New ability to copy an entire workflow, on top of the current exporting/importing of tasks.
Updated SmartCheck Validation Display
Updated the Display of SmartCheck validation errors for improved look and feel. It will now be more obvious that you can click the error messages, and the fields with errors will be more prominently highlighted.
Updated File Versioning
Updated the file versioning feature on file uploads to use a 3-digit numbering syntax. For example, previous versioning named the files V1, V2,…etc. but will now name them V001, V002,…etc.
Updated Assignment List View Interface
Updated interface for the Assign List View feature, which has now been renamed to Quick Assign. The interface and certain text labels and buttons have been updated for improved usability.
New Import Wizard
New import wizard feature improves on the previous import wizard functionality. This new import wizard is meant for quick, on the fly data imports without having to configure an autoloader. You can find this in three locations: Global Settings -> Organizations tab, Global settings -> Users tab, or in UTA settings -> Level 1 tab.
Expanded System Change Audit
Expanded the system change audit logs to now include changes to the organization/user security matrix.
New Data Exchange Failure Notification
Update to Data Exchange that will send an email notification to a user when sending a package has failed to be received by the receiving instance.
On-Demand System Upgrades
The following features are available immediately with the application of the upgrade, but must first be enabled or configured by a System Administrator:
Major Updates
New Personal Dashboard
New personal dashboard allows anyone to create their own dashboard of list views, charts, or an aggregate value. You can create any number of dashboards as well as share them with others through SmartCards! You simply need to set the system feature permission for Personal Dashboard to enable this for users.
New Cookie Policy and Template
New feature to alert users to the use of cookies on the SmartSimple application. This feature will need to be enabled within Global Settings -> Security -> toggle on Enable Cookie Usage Acceptance, which will then alert users landing on the login page and require them to accept the use of cookies. We have also introduced a policy template that you can use to create your own cookie usage policy within your Privacy and Security Policies.
New Personal Data Erasure Feature
