6.1.    Improved Handling of Large Reports

Figure 1.          Large report being generated

Sometimes very large reports would fail to generate, leading to an error message. This has been improved so that very large reports will now be run in the background. Running a job in the background is like a Scheduled Report but happens straight away instead of on a regular timer.

Generating in the background means that the user can leave the page and continue work on something else. When the report generation has completed, the user will receive a notification with a link to download the report.

 

6.2.    Locking Digital Document after First Sign Off

Figure 2.          Locked digital document fields in hub2

When the first sign off is completed in a digital document, the header fields, tasks, and comments fields are now locked and can no longer be edited.

Once a sign off has been completed it can no longer be edited.

This functionality has been added to both hub2 and the Companion App.

 

6.3.    Notification Groups

Figure 3.          Viewing a Notification Group

Under the “Ref. Tables” menu, there is now a new item “Notification Groups”.

Notification Groups allow the creation of a group of Authorised Persons who can all be notified at once for the same event. Currently Notification Groups are only used by the Process Builder.
