Product Updates - 21st March 2024
In this latest Rise-X EOP release, we are excited to introduce several enhancements which includes the ability to manage user access to certain tasks. Additionally, we have implemented extensive improvements to platform wide validations, ensuring a more intuitive and consistent user experience. In NoCode, users can also now configure mathematical formulas within the Number Input component.
Alongside these enhancements, numerous bug fixes have been resolved to enhance overall stability and performance on the platform.
🆕 New Feature
Control of access to tasks
We have released a new feature aiming to improve access management within tasks. This enhancement allows users to control who can be invited to a task, by specifying the email addresses in an designated field. This capability can serve as a safeguard against over-sharing of tasks, by controlling the list of users that can be invited to collaborate on a task. (12317)
🪄 Feature Updates
Intuitive and consistent validations
We have improved the validation messages and prompts platform wide to offer clearer guidance and smoother user experience. Error messages now provide actionable advice, and users are navigated to the specific field when there is one validation error in the task. For multiple errors across different components, an alert will appear on the top right of the screen to inform users of the total number of fields that requires amendments.
Required fields and columns are also marked with asterisks for quick identification. Validations within table cells are also improved to be more informative, to improve user efficiency and experience across the platform. (15479)
Seamless task submit process
We have enhanced the task submission process by preventing the “To” and “Cc” fields within the submit panels to collapse when users click out of the fields. This avoids the submit button from shifting, ensuring a smoother user experience and making it easier for users to accurately click on the button. Additionally, users can now utilise the keyboard navigation by pressing the Enter button to select users from the dropdown list, further improving accessibility. (15457)
Data publishing to entities
We have streamlined the data publishing process from a work item to the defined entity, eliminating the need for manual updates by users. This will minimise chances of human input errors, and improves work efficiency. (14422)
Adding auto count column to tables
We have introduced an automatic count of columns for tables, offering users a convenient way to access this information at a glance. (15714)
Ability to define formulas for calculations in NoCode
The Number Input component in NoCode now has the capability for users to configure custom mathematical formulas, enabling dynamic due dates and calculations.
In the Workflow Builder, simply drag and drop a Number Input component and start configuring it under the Advanced tab. Users can also delve into this functionality by clicking on the “Learn more about default values” link in the bottom of the drop down list. (15585)
Performance
We have enhanced the performance of the platform by relocating the locking and unlocking of components, to ensure smoother user experience and improve system responsiveness.
🐞 Bug Fixes
NoCode fixes:
- Asset display name: We have fixed an issue to ensure that the configured Asset name will be displayed accurately for Assets created in the Asset builder. (13914)
- Activities panel: An issue where the historical activities related to updating of an asset did not display in the activities panel has been resolved. (15239)
- Default data selection: We have successfully resolved an issue to ensure that the selections made for the Default data field will be saved accurately at all times. (15724)
Permissions
- Displaying users in panel: We have implemented a fix to ensure that users invited as viewers to a restricted tasks are displayed accurately in the task permission panel. (14197)
- Removing users from tasks: A bug where users removed from restricted tasks were removed from the entire work rather than just the particular task has been fixed. (14198)
- User permissions: We have resolved an issue to ensure that when a Work Owner’s permissions in a task has been downgraded from Editor to Viewer does not affect their status as a Work Owner. (15505)
Skeleton loader
We have successfully resolved an issue to ensure that a loader is displayed when Assets are being rendered on the Kanban view. This provides visual clarity whilst additional Assets continue to load in the background. (15766)
User emails
We have reevaluated how the system handles email addresses and user names during platform login. This ensures that the server uses the correct email accurately. (15663)
Logout landing page
A fix has been implemented to guarantee that users are consistently directed to the login page upon logging out. (15006)
