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
Improved Annotation Mode Experience
Annotations serve as a collaborative tool allowing users to add notes and responses directly to specific fields within a record. With field-level annotations, users can modify individual fields and respond to comments without affecting the rest of the record.
In this upgrade, we refined the interface by hiding the left navigation panel and implementing color-coded messages: Blue indicates comments made by you. Yellow indicates comments made by others. Green denotes resolved annotation sets.
Additionally, when the Open in Annotation Mode setting is enabled, users will now directly enter annotation mode when changing to the defined status.
Users can easily view the list of annotations in the right column, facilitating navigation to specific annotation fields and drilling into the collaboration conversation. Reply and edit functionalities for unlocked fields are conveniently accessible through a modal window.
The ability to mark an annotation set as resolved is also new.
See the revised wiki article: https://wiki.smartsimple.com/wiki/Field_Revision_Annotations
New AI powered Natural Language Search option
We’ve introduced a new search option where users can enter plain text and have the AI generate filter criteria for list views.
To use this feature, click on the “Enable AI assisted search button” (robot icon) and type the desired criteria using natural language to filter the results. For example, you could type “Search for all records with the status ‘Draft’.”
Note: For added security, only data visible in the list view will be searched.
