Dashworks Release Notes 5.6.7

You can use email notifications to communicate with users about project deployment and Task updates. This release includes a number of improvements to email notifications, such as the Send Now button and the ability to send multiple email notifications at once. Application Compliance has also been updated, enabling Analysis Editors to manage application compatibility and compliance more efficiently. Additionally, Project columns and filters now allow you to manage All Application Devices in Evergreen, replacing App (Group) Dashboards in Senior.

Highlights

Send Now in Task Emails

The Send now button allows you to send an email notification from an object with Tasks by clicking the Cog menu > Send Now. This useful feature has been improved so that the Send Now button sends one notification, instead of sending all the pending notifications for the Task.

Additionally, you can select multiple email notifications and send them using the action menu at the top of the Task emails grid.

Application Compliance

A user with a role of Analysis Editor can change the Compliance on the Application details page using the pencil button. This is useful if you want to change the the compatibility of a particular application.

Compliance changes are only applied when the transform is finished and changed Compliance is indicated by the crossed-arrow icon displayed next to the Compliance name.
