Reporting (Early Access Beta)
- Added a tab to the drop-down menu within Dash, allowing users to edit the username/password for the reporting database.
Caseviewer
Saved tasks will now be hidden from Caseviewer's default Task views, and a new filter has been added allowing Saves to be displayed as required. This applies to the New Save feature only. (Please
contact support to discuss enabling New Saves). This filtering allows CSAs and back-office staff to remove the noise of Citizens' incomplete tasks but still access those tasks if a citizen needs help completing their submission.
govService Platform
Improvements
- My Requests has been updated to achieve faster loading speeds.
Bug Fixes
- The Registration email used to welcome new Citizen Portal users has been patched to prevent intermittent failures.
- The Help Text component in Forms will now have its copy read out by screen readers.
- When saving a Form, a pop-up appears asking users to enter their email address. This pop-up was being cut off on devices with screens smaller than 320px. This has now been fixed and will no longer be cut off.
