The below product updates are scheduled to go live August 5, 2024. Release notes for each update will be added here once it is available in your test environment.
NOTE: These updates will only be available in your test and live environment once your site is migrated to the ColdBox framework. For more information, please reference the email about the ColdBox migration.
Bulk Edit Categories - UI Update: The UI of the Bulk Edit Categories screen has been updated to make adding parent categories and their sub categories faster and with less clicks. The updated screen can be access via the admin > Submissions or Sessions > Categories > Bulk Edit Categories. Watch video walk through here for full details.
Archived Forms: Forms that have not been edited (including questions and answers) and have not had any responses in two or more years will automatically be hidden from the Settings > Forms screen. Click the "Show Archived" check box to display all forms.
This is intended to reduce the list of forms and make it easier to find and edit forms that are actively being used.
Hiding Forms - Drop Downs: Select drop downs that contain forms will now only display forms that have been edited (including questions and answers) or have had responses in the last 2 years. To display all forms, click the check box beneath the drop down.
Session View by Day: Ability to view sessions by day in the admin by going to Sessions > Advanced Search > select "Use Tabbed View". Note, a conference/activity must be selected in order for this option to appear.
PARS Learner Data Report - Session Completion Date: Previously, if a learner completed multiple sessions within an activity at various times (i.e. RSS or Enduring Materials), the PARS Learner Data Report would tally all credits with a single completion date (the date of the last completed session).
Based on feedback from our customers reporting to PARS, this has been updated such that each session will be represented with its own line item and completion date in the report.
If multiple sessions are completed on the same date, a single line item and completion date will remain, tallying all awarded credits.
Attendance App - New User Button: The manage attendance app has been updated so that the "Add New User" button appears if any search is performed. Previously, this button only appeared if your search did not returned results. This update allows you to easily add a new user when your search returns results, but the person you're looking for is not there.
