New Features
- (BETA) Introducing Standard Work for improvement!
If you find yourself recreating the same items and workflows regularly, consider creating a Standard Work Group so that you can add all relevant items (and any attached files!) to any of your work. It’s sort of like creating frequently used items.
Reach out to your Customer Experience Lead to take advantage of this new feature. - You can now bulk edit any of your items when looking at a List in the List View or an Item List Card in the List or Detail View.
- Templates of all workflows - Improvements, Projects, Incidents, Charts, and Tasks - can now be customized to include (or not include) Resolutions.
Complete Release Notes
Improvements
- You can now copy multiple levels of nested items - not just one level. NOTE: Only the first 100 nested items will be copied.
When copying an item, check the box next to “Copy nested items” if you want to copy the items nested under it. - Select whether you want to copy “One Level” - the items nested directly under the parent you’re copying - or “All Levels” - all items nested under the parent or its children, etc.
- Select whether you want to copy all types - Projects Improvements, Charts, and Tasks.
- If you select “No,” check the box next to each workflow you do want to copy.
- You now have more control over who can create items of certain templates and what items can be related to them. Reach out to your Customer Experience Lead to add customization to any of your templates.
Your customization options now include: - Possible Parent Types - Specify under which types of items can this template be nested.
- Possible Child Types - Specify what types of items can be nested under this template.
- Required Roles - If someone does not have a certain Role, they will be unable to create an item of this type.
- Excluded Roles - If someone has a certain Role, they will be unable to create an item of this type.
- Required Locations - If someone is not a part of a certain Network Location, they will be unable to create an item of this type.
- Excluded Locations - If someone is part of a certain Network Location, they will be unable to create an item of this type.
- The
icon on a Nested Items panel on a custom layout template has been made much smarter!
When creating a new item from that button, the following information will be automatically filled in as applicable: - The “Parent” field will be filled in with the name of the parent item.
- Any Attributes you have filtered by on that panel will be added to the new item.
- If you have filtered by “Type,” you will only be able to create new items of that type or types.
- The nested items tabs - Project, Improvements, Incidents, Charts, and Tasks - on a custom layout template can now include multiple lists.
You can have an “All” list panel shown which will display all items of that workflow nested under the parent.
You can also have a list shown for each of the individual nested item panels that are on the main tab for each workflow.
Reach out to your Customer Experience Lead to take advantage of this new feature. - On custom layout templates, you can now add panels that contain multi-workflow lists.
Reach out to your Customer Experience Lead to take advantage of this new feature. - The nested item panels’ filters can now be configured on the template itself so that they do not have to be rebuilt for each new item of that type.

Bugs
- A bug was fixed which occasionally caused Bar Charts to have multiple bar segments on one data point.
- Converting a parent item into another workflow will remove the parent/child relationship when applicable:
- Projects and Charts can have any workflow as a child, so conversion into one of these workflows will not affect the child’s relationship with the parent.
- Improvements and Incidents can have Tasks and Charts as children, so conversion into one of these workflows will not affect a child Task or Chart’s relationship with the parent, but the relationship will be removed if the child is a Project.
- Tasks cannot have any children, so conversion into this workflow will cause the relationship between the new Task and any former children to be removed.
