To use these new options, create or navigate to a custom field of type '''Special - Advanced Data Table'''. For the new option '''Page Layout''', select "Default". This will surface the new setup options for '''Page Title''' and '''Page Instructions'''.

====Added Routing Options to the Create New Activity Workflow Task Type====
====Title====
+
It’s now easier to assign users to newly created activities without the need to create specific UTA roles. This change applies to all workflow types related to a specific tracking application. To view this setting, go to '''Workflows''' > Edit a workflow > Create or edit a task of type '''Create New Activity''' >''' Create for Users Assigned as'''. This gives you the option to assign the tasks to users based on either their UTA roles or if they are assigned as the owner.

====Improved Password Rendering====
<!--121853 - Randomization of test questions-->
+
In some areas of the system (such as the '''Global Settings''' > '''Communications''' > '''SMTP Relay'''), if a password was present and saved, the input will now be greyed out with an '''Edit''' button. Previously there was no visual indication that a password was present and saved.
<!--130455 - Question Set Scoring-->
+
 
 +
[[File:2021-03-ticket-131982.jpg|thumb|none|800px|Updates were made to password rendering for greater clarity.]]

 +
<!--134555-->
 +
 
 +
====User Groups====
 +
Added ability to restrict access to user group settings pages. To see the new permission, navigate to '''Global Settings''' > '''Security''' tab > '''System Feature Permissions''' > '''Features''' tab > '''User Group – Manager'''. These settings will continue to be available to '''Global Administrators''' regardless of permissions set. We also fixed an issue with the user group search where you could not search external users.
 +
<!---133837, 134182-->
 +
 
 +
====Archive Schedule Start Time====
 +
'''Archive Schedules''' will now start running at 15 minutes after the hour instead of on the hour.
 +
<!--133586-->
 +
 
 +
====Edit Profiles Via Links====
 +

 +
<!---134746-->
 +
 
 +
====System Call Task Added to User Workflows====
 +
The '''System Call''' task is now available for '''User Workflows'''.
 +

+
====Advanced Search with Modified By====
====Updates to Workflows====

Added ability to search using '''Modified By''' in Level 1 list view '''Advanced Search'''.
Updated the default '''Connect To''' option when creating a new connector in a workflow. You will now see the default option has been changed to '''Complete''' instead of '''Start''' for new workflow connectors. In general, it is more likely that you would want to connect to '''Complete''' than to '''Start''' and this change will also reduce the risk of accidentally configuring infinite loops. Added the UTA name before the status name option under the '''Termination Trigger''' field when the '''Workflow Type''' is set to '''Tracking Activities'''.
+
<!---133571--->
<!--125555 - Workflow connectors default Connect To Complete-->

====Added Indexing Option for List Views Using Quick Load Setting====
+
====Autoloader Process and Configuration Error Logs====
Added a new option to enable indexing for list views utilizing the '''Enable Quick Load''' setting. The '''Enable Quick Load''' setting is intended for list views with a large set of results. This setting returns an unsorted number of records without a total record count in order to improve the list view load time. If indexing is enabled, searches will also be faster since it will search the index instead of real-time data. To configure, edit any existing list view, scroll down to the Feature Options section under the '''Properties''' tab and toggle on '''Enable Quick Load'''. You will then see an additional toggle labelled '''Enable Indexing'''.
+
Logs located in the following locations will now show items for only the past 3 months.
 +
Menu icon > '''Gort Automation''' > '''Autoloader Process (in Process/Failed)'''
 +
Menu icon > '''Global Settings''' > '''Configuration Error Log'''
 +
<!---133958--->
  
<u>'''Note:'''</u> If list views with these settings are selected in portals, you will be restricted to using a single search criterion.
+
====Autoloader and Report Notifications====
<!--128415 - List view fast searching performance improvements-->
+
Email notifications from autoloader and report export will now use the default from address if configured. To configure the default from address, navigate to Menu icon > '''Global Settings''' > '''Communications''' tab > '''Email Options and Security''' > '''Enable Default From Address'''.
 +
<!---134000--->
  
====Added Total Send Limit on Emails====
+
====Validation of File Names with Single Quotes====
Added a send limit on workflow generated emails and emails created in batch (Example: group emails, email broadcasts, etc) if an SMTP relay is not in use. If more than 25,000 total emails are successfully sent within 24 hours, additional emails will remain in the queue until the total number of sent emails within the past 24 hours drops below 25,000 emails.
+
Fixed an issue where if a file has single quotes, it will cause errors in validation when the '''Description''' field is enabled on the '''Upload - Multiple Files Storage''' custom field.
 +
<!---134186--->
  
<u>'''Note:'''</u> Emails related to account registration will be unaffected.
+
====Test To Production (T2P)====
<!--114639 - Need to rate limit and quota limit sending of emails-->

Some unneeded tables are no longer included in the T2P comparison.
 +
<!---134553--->
  
====Added Hourly API Call Limit====
+
====Archiving Activities====
Added an API call limit per past hour. API calls in excess of 1000 per instance within the past hour will receive an error and will be blocked from using the API until the total API call count in the last hour drops below the limit. This limit can be changed on the root instance of a dedicated environment.
+
Standard field '''Associated Parent''' will now be available in the activities file when archiving.
<!--125991 - Throttle API calls-->
+
<!---134833--->
  
====Updates to GuideStar Search API====
+
====UTA File Search====
GuideStar is deprecating their older API. If you have an existing integration for GuideStar search, be sure to enter your updated API keys under '''Menu Icon''' > '''Global Settings''' > '''Integrations''' tab > '''GuideStar Search'''.
+
'''UTA Administrators''' will now have access to the UTA file search feature.
<!--121944 - Guidestar Candid API integration update-->

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

Deprecation of Classic Options on User and Organization Signup Pages

The following settings that were found on the Classic Options tab have been deprecated: Internal Entry, Internal Format, Attach Web Form, Create Folder for User. If these features were enabled, you will still see the settings. Otherwise, the settings will no longer be visible. If you create a new signup page, you will no longer have the option to enable these features.

Minor Updates

Updates to the Sent Message Queue

We have added a new button called View Message to easily preview sent email messages in the Message Queue. Email messages that contain HTML and formatting (not plain text) will no longer be automatically rendered. Instead, you will have an option to open the email contents securely in a new window. To see this new functionality, navigate to Menu Icon > Message Queue > Sent tab > Click the icon on the far left of each record.

New button called View Message added to the to Message Queue to easily preview sent email messages

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 Global Administrator:

Major Updates

There are no major on-demand updates for this upgrade.

Minor Updates

Enhancements for Question Set Builder

Added a new custom field called Special - Scoring Results that displays test scores and correct answers on Level 2 activity records using the Question Set Builder with scoring enabled. To learn more about how to set up scoring, step-by-step details can be found on the Question Set Builder custom field page.

A new custom field Special - Scoring Results can display test scores on Level 2 records

Added Ability to Choose Type as Icon Color for Level 1 List Views

Added the ability to choose the Type color for the icon on Level 1 list views. Previously, the Level 1 list view icons always used the Status color, whereas level 2s and 3s had the option to choose. To see the new setting called Color Code Based On, navigate to the configuration screen of a Level 1 list view.

A new setting in the list view properties allows users to display color based on Type or Status.

Updated the Ability to Set Role-Based IP Restrictions for Login

You can now set an allow list of IP addresses per role which will be used to only allow certain IP addresses to log into the system under a specific role. To see the new setting for this additional layer of security, navigate to Global Settings > Users tab > Roles > Edit a role > Permissions tab.

The new IP restrictions are placed under the user roles.

Added Ability to Customize the Unlink Message for ORCID

A new Unlink Button Alert input has been added to the ORCID User Standard Field. This gives you the ability to easily customize the messaging around unlinking accounts for your ORCID users. To see the new settings, navigate to Global Settings > Users tab > Standard Fields > ORCID.

Systems using ORCID now have the ability to customize messaging around the Unlink Account button.

Added Default Layout for Advanced Data Tables

Added a new “Page Layout” setting for the custom field Special - Advanced Data Table so you can easily set up this field type without looking at or modifying code. To use these new options, create or navigate to a custom field of type Special - Advanced Data Table. For the new option Page Layout, select "Default". This will surface the new setup options for Page Title and Page Instructions. The Section Builder has also been updated to include new options for Display Order (under the Section Details tab) and Visibility Condition (under the Permissions and Availability tab).

A new default layout for Advanced Data Tables makes them easier to set up.

Added Auto-Population Button for Custom Field Translations

Added a button called Populate from Field on the custom field translations screen. This convenience feature allows you to populate the translation you are currently working on with placeholder data. It pulls the placeholder values from the base field for context. To see this new button, go to UTA Settings > Level One tab > Custom Fields > Edit a custom field > Click the Custom Field Translation Settings button on the top action bar > Select a language > Click the Populate from Field button.

The new button is located on the Custom Field Translation Settings.

Added Routing Options to the Create New Activity Workflow Task Type

It’s now easier to assign users to newly created activities without the need to create specific UTA roles. This change applies to all workflow types related to a specific tracking application. To view this setting, go to Workflows > Edit a workflow > Create or edit a task of type Create New Activity > Create for Users Assigned as. This gives you the option to assign the tasks to users based on either their UTA roles or if they are assigned as the owner.

Workflow tasks that create new activities can now be assigned to the user in the owner or person fields.

Added Pre-Processing for JSON Files in Autoloader

Updated autoloader to include pre-processing for JSON file types. To see this option, go to Menu Icon > Autoloaders > Edit an autoloader > Set the File Type to "JSON"> Click the Process tab > File Pre-Processing.

Added Support for Dun & Bradstreet Integration

We have extended ssGet() variable syntax to support Dun & Bradstreet API calls. This watchlist scanning integration requires that you bring your own license.

Beta Previews

No features are available for beta preview this upgrade.

Notes for Admins

Added New Request Method to Workflow Task Type

If you create a workflow task of the type Web Service – RESTful Request, you now have the option to choose Delete as the request method.

Updates to Database Schema and Maintenance

Behind the scenes updates to connectors and database schema.

Improved Password Rendering

In some areas of the system (such as the Global Settings > Communications > SMTP Relay), if a password was present and saved, the input will now be greyed out with an Edit button. Previously there was no visual indication that a password was present and saved.

Updates were made to password rendering for greater clarity.

Media Library Thumbnail Rotation

Image thumbnails as seen in the media library (Upload – Multiple Files Storage custom field) are now being rotated based on EXIF orientation. Images uploaded after the upgrade will now get automatically rotated thumbnails.

User Groups

Added ability to restrict access to user group settings pages. To see the new permission, navigate to Global Settings > Security tab > System Feature Permissions > Features tab > User Group – Manager. These settings will continue to be available to Global Administrators regardless of permissions set. We also fixed an issue with the user group search where you could not search external users.

Archive Schedule Start Time

Archive Schedules will now start running at 15 minutes after the hour instead of on the hour.

Edit Profiles Via Links

When a user clicks a link configured to edit an Organization or User profile, if the user has view permission, they will now see the profile in view mode when they previously saw an "Access Denied" message.

System Call Task Added to User Workflows

The System Call task is now available for User Workflows.

Updated Libraries

Updated jQuery UI Libraries to 1.13.1.

Updated JQuery version to 3.6.0 and JQuery Migrate to 1.4.1

Updated Highcharts to version 9.3.2

Translations

Fixed some issues around saving translation settings.

Increased Encryption and Validation

Added encryption to the value stored against the session variable and cookie for the logout redirect. Plus, we are now enforcing server-side validation for the new password and confirmation password values.

Advanced Search with Modified By

Added ability to search using Modified By in Level 1 list view Advanced Search.

Autoloader Process and Configuration Error Logs

Logs located in the following locations will now show items for only the past 3 months. Menu icon > Gort Automation > Autoloader Process (in Process/Failed) Menu icon > Global Settings > Configuration Error Log

Autoloader and Report Notifications

Email notifications from autoloader and report export will now use the default from address if configured. To configure the default from address, navigate to Menu icon > Global Settings > Communications tab > Email Options and Security > Enable Default From Address.

Validation of File Names with Single Quotes

Fixed an issue where if a file has single quotes, it will cause errors in validation when the Description field is enabled on the Upload - Multiple Files Storage custom field.

Test To Production (T2P)

Some unneeded tables are no longer included in the T2P comparison.

Archiving Activities

Standard field Associated Parent will now be available in the activities file when archiving.

UTA File Search

UTA Administrators will now have access to the UTA file search feature.

Service Packs

June 9th 2022 (202206.01)

Fixes

  • Fixed an issue where the annotation pop-up panel was being displayed behind the footer bar.
  • Fixed an issue where the Deny Add Field was not being applied on the Association standard field when the Use Classic Association Entry View was toggled off under Global Settings > Classic Options tab.

Other Changes

  • Added a new setting to flag organizations into acting structurally like a holding folder rather than a true organization with hierarchy permissions. Users assigned to this organization would be restricted from seeing any other user or organization profiles except for their own. This feature prevents inadvertent security breaches. To set this flag, go to Menu Icon > Organizations > Edit an Organization > Actions > Edit Categories and Access > Toggle on Container.
  • Added a new setting to the Lookup - Autocomplete Options custom field that allows any entity profile links to be restricted by role.

  • Updated the CKEditor for rich text to version 4.19.0.

May 19th 2022 (202205.03)

  • Fixed an issue with variable processing on group emails where a variable in the body of the email displayed the value of the first record as the value for all records.
  • Fixed an issue with Word Merge where tables were not displaying if the Word document template contained multiple sections separated by page breaks. Word Merge will now look at the index of tables in the whole document instead of multiple sections separated by page breaks.
  • Updated System Performance Summary severity from “Medium” to “Low” when parent syntax is used inside list syntax. A check for the number of occurrences of list syntax, sslogic, sscalculation, and ReportProperty was also introduced.
