Features (Click here for PDF)
Access Groups
A new screen has been added at the configuration level where Access Groups can be maintained
Users using Access Groups will have their assignment rights bound by them (overriding all other security)
The User Maintenance screen has a new option to ‘Restrict to Access Group Assignments’ which when selected limits the user to assignment access rights as specified on the new screen
The Generic CSV import now supports the new tables for Access Groups, facilitating quick configuration of user/assignment relationships
Accessibility
Embedded controls (such as the list of reports and checklists) now remain open when clicking outside of the control
Assignments
Assignments with reminders can now be deleted successfully
Assignments have a new section where Access Groups can be selected, restricting the users that can view these assignments
Assignment Packages
Production reports and merge documents created with an assignment package, that are backed by an excel merge document using multiple user reports, can now be successfully created
Authorizations
The default effective date for authorization requests can now be defined. This date is used in the creation of assignment packages and cost estimates that are generated as a part of the authorization process. Note, this also applies to Assignment Packages created as part of Core-Flex authorizations
Business Rules
Corrected a scenario where the calculation input mapping could not be saved in Business Rules containing input variables specifically inside a Benefit Set Line Item
Checklists
Corrected a scenario where you could not change the tasks and reminders contact in edit mode, when one was already selected for the same contact type
Comp Accumulator
Users can now see error messages with more detail if a Comp Accumulation batch send process fails when using the Compensation Control Panel
Compensation Worksheets
Now when a split pay line item is set to pay 100% in one location, the amount in the other location will always have a value of ‘0.00’
The ‘Comp Worksheet With Categories’ standard production reports will now honor the company and will no longer display incorrect categories
Cost Estimates
The ‘Months in Host’ calculation has been updated to round the months in host to the nearest integer
This update will resolve most of the conversion errors encountered in Assignment Packages, User report, and Compensation Calculations where the months in host value was included

Emails
The ‘From’ email now takes into consideration the ‘From’ address sent in the email and is saved in the database email log table with the correct ‘From’ address
Import Process
File imports with a format of ‘txt’ or ‘csv’ and where the first line in the import starts with ‘BM’ can now be imported successfully
Solved a scenario that affected import processes, in which Resources were not being updated as part of those imports

Licensing
Reporting of the license module usage is now permitted at the Assignment level via a new Assignment Counter table
Messaging
Upgraded the Messaging feature in AssignmentPro

Now if a user is deleted from AssignmentPro, conversations involving the user will be deleted. In addition, any other users with unread messages from this user will not be notified
The unread conversations badge now refreshes correctly when messages are read

Users can now move merge documents between instances of AssignmentPro through a new migration package
Mobile Employee Experience
Employees can now view their vendor expenses from their relocation budget on the MEE widget

The font-size remains the same regardless of the chosen regional browser settings on the Notes/Communications screen

Security Enhancements
Users are now warned about unsupported characters, such as ‘<’ or ‘>’ if they are chosen in their passwords

Service/Stability Enhancements
Improved the performance of:
User Reports
User Report downloads
Assignment Packages
Download of large documents
Large file imports into the Generic CSV Import Service
Added a new system preference (code TBPMAXTHRD) that specifies the maximum number of concurrent jobs the Threaded Batch Processor will run, regardless of other thread limits. Note, this system preference is defaulted for better performance
To improve performance the system preference for user report processing limit has been changed to default at 10
Solved a problem where some users were hitting the e-signature envelope cap
