It is now possible to share communication events!
Users who have the "Create/Update Shared Communication Templates"
role, or have admin level access, are able to use this new feature.
It is now possible to schedule
communication events! Custom PDFs, Emails, and SMS Text Messages can now
all be sent at a preferred date and time.
In relation to the new communication
scheduler, there are now new reports in each application under Administration
--> Communication--> Communication Events Summary & Communication
Event Detail. These reports show information about upcoming and historic
scheduled communication events.
The Schedule section
on each application homepage has been updated to have three tabs: Personal
Pinned Reports, Communication Centre, and Global Events. These allow for
more refined organization of scheduled events.
The SMS communication
dialog in the top-right corner of the page now accepts Student ID or Employee
ID as search criteria. Previously this would only return results when
searching for a name.
A pop-out button has been added to the title bar (to the left of the X
"close" button) of inline pop-up grids. This will open the pop-up
window in a new browser tab.
A new "Save As" option has been added to the File
Share report scheduler so that specific individuals can be selected
to receive the file share at the scheduled times.
When accessing Online Documentation on the Help Menu, it will now open
in a new browser tab instead of a separate, pop-up window.
The SMS feature has been updated with a pop-out button to allow for text
messaging to open in a new window.

on several screens has been upgraded from version 2011.3.1305.40 to version
2020.2.617.45.
The
Vendor Search control on the Requisition
page now has been updated to use a new style drop-down search control
that makes searching for a vendor easier for users.
The
Print page layout now defaults to portrait mode instead of landscape orientation.
It is now possible to import from Excel on the Client
Warehouse Builder-Table Definitions screen. This will help streamline
the bulk migration of objects between environments.
All FAST applications now have date stamps on the Notification
pop-up list so it is easier to tell when a notification was created.
Excel Exports have been improved
by switching from the legacy .xls format to .xlsx format. They are now
faster, allow for export of larger file size, and have improved scalability. The
Chat feature now allows users to hold Group chats
and to name and save Group and user conversations. Additionally, requisition
forms can be attached or
linked to chat threads.
Dashboards
can now be exported into a PDF (Portable Document Format) or Excel file
simply by clicking the appropriate icon next to the dashboard title.
There is now a Page
Option (under the report level Administration tab) that allows users
to hide the left-most "Row #" column if desired when running
a report.
Dashboard Filters can now display in
any order using drag and drop and are no longer only available for display
in alphabetical order.
The email template now has options
for users to clear messages, save templates, and load saved templates.
See the Sending as Email file
for additional information.
Slight modification to the Pinned
Reports Admin page where administrators can re-assign Pinned Reports
to other groups and/or additional groups.
