New Currencies Now Supported in the System
40 new currencies have been added to the list of standard system currencies.
New Dynamic List View Filtering
List views and search filters have been enhanced with the ability to dynamically filter lists based upon the current user. This allows the creation of a single list view that shows the current user all records they are associated to in a specific role.
Updated Reports Page With List Style and Search Functionality
This enhancement extends the Arcadia list view page-style to the Reports page. This enhancement also adds search functionality.
New Level 2 Fields Now Visible in Level 3 List Views

New Advanced Search Extended to Organizations, Branches, and External Persons Connected to the Level 1
This feature enhances the advanced search for list views to be able to search attributes of associated objects, and builds on the enhancements introduced in the January 2016 upgrade. With this enhancement Advanced Search functionality has been added to the following:

- b) the branch connected to the Level 1
- c) the external person connected to the Level 1
- d) the internal person connected to the Level 1

77277 This feature enhances Consumer / Provider list views with the ability to search and filter results.
New Customizable Privacy and Confidentiality Policies and Persistent Hyperlinks
Privacy is a shared responsibility. This enhancement adds the ability for organizations to define their own policies. Separate policies can be created for individual country and language combinations. Also added is a Privacy & Security tab where all policies are managed. The policies will appear on the standard system login page as well as in the header section in user portals.
Beta Previews
New Annotate Specific Application and Form Fields with Comments
Revision Annotations allows you to mark up annotations at the field level and allow edits to be made to specific fields while keeping the rest of the record locked. Flexible security allows you to configure role-based permissions to allow different users the ability to make annotations to fields and others the ability to edit the field value, for example when requiring users to make revisions to their forms.
New Assignment Panels - Phase 1
77277
New Assignment Panels allows you navigate different list views simultaneously and easily search and bulk assign users to records. This first phase is limited to the ability to assign users in one panel to Level 1 records in the other panel but this will be expanded to in the future to allow assignment to and from more record types.
Enhanced Custom Field List Views Now Display Last Modified Date
This enhancement adds the last modified date field to Custom Field list views. This data is useful when tracking changes made to these list views.
New Invite New and Existing Contacts Into The System Via Email
This new feature introduces the easy invitation of a contact to collaborate on a system record through an email invitation. To facilitate this, invited contacts can accept or decline the invitation to associate them to the record. This new feature will send invitations to contacts who currently exist as a contact in the system and to contacts who do not exist. Contacts who are new will be directed to a contact sign-up page when applicable. This simplifies the process of inviting all contacts to participate in system activities.
Batch Create Records Based on Provider Details
This new feature enables the creation of consumer associated records in batch based on the contacts or companies associated to the provider record.
Enhanced Stripe e-Payment Integration
77277 This enhancement furthers the integration with contemporary payments service, Stripe, and builds on the initial beta release in November. Through the invoice module, payments can be accepted by credit cards using the Stripe integration.
Notes for Admins
New Style Sheet for XML Budgets and Defined Default Classes for Cells
Updated the style of XML data custom fields with a new default style sheet. This enhancement eliminates the needs to hand code HTML styling when creating XML data fields.
Enhanced Revamp of Dynamic Control Fields
Updated the design of dynamic control custom fields for more consistent and improved behavior. The improvements were achieved through changes to the way Dynamic Control fields are rendered.
New Create Arcadia X Layouts Using Pre-Made Templates With the Layout Picker
The Arcadia X layout picker enables the point-and-click configuration of portal sections using pre-made templates and the choice of Arcadia X themes and backgrounds. Arcadia X layouts built using the layout picker are responsive by default.
New Role Permissions for Submit buttons
Submit buttons can now be configured so that they are presented to users based on role and UTA role permissions reducing the need for visibility conditions.
Enhanced Record Lock Feature Added when Modifying Contacts and Companies
The Record Lock feature gives the first person to access a record in Edit mode exclusive access to the record so that others cannot edit it until released. This enhancement extends the Record Lock functionality to include Contacts and Organizations and eliminates the possibility of two users concurrently editing these records.
New Control Page Breaks and Page Orientation With SmartField PDF Options
This enhancement enables greater control of PDF documents generated from SmartField Views by one-click control of page breaks and page orientation.
Enhanced Message Queue Functionality Enables Re-Sending of Failed Emails
