Version 3.30

Release Date: 2019-10-12

 

Possible Breaking Change

Follow-Up Action logic has been changed. Starting with 3.31, if a Workflow Complete, Workflow Reject or Workflow Cancel action happens then the remaining follow up actions are not triggered. In order to ensure all your actions happen you will want these actions to happen at the end of the follow-up action list.

 

Highlights

This is a brief summary of the biggest and/or most influential new features

Enhanced Document Security – We have updated the Document Security to be more flexible and full-featured. Now you can give Read Write for a category to a user that has Read Only to the Record. Previously the Record Security would override the document security.

Search Results – There is now the option to download the search results in an Excel spreadsheet. The data is nicely formatted in a table. The spreadsheet also includes one sheet for each numeric field that shows a chart of the data for that field.

Workflow – Added ability to apply annotations during workflow. This is perfect for applying signature stamps as well as other status stamps to documents during processing. Use in conjunction with the Burn Annotations action to create a permanently annotated document.

Date / Time Fields – We have added the ability for the Date fields to be Date Only (04-02-2019), Date / Time (04-02-2019 8:00 PM) or Time Only (8:00 PM). Use the Advanced tab of the Date field to set your preference for that field.
