Improved Manage Load Times

We identified the load times of the Manage Users interface as a part of the system that wasn’t performing as well as we’d like, this has now been improved and should load noticeably faster.

[4] Daily Organiser
Direct Download of Published Timetables and Daily Organisers

Users can now download Published Timetables and Daily Organisers directly from their lists in the Admin Console. This can be done by selecting one or more files and selecting download from either the right-click context menu or the File Actions menu at the top of the page. The context menu can be used to quickly download a file without selecting it simply by right clicking on it.

Improved Download File Naming

The names of downloaded files have been improved to better reflect what was downloaded and when it was downloaded. Filenames now include the location in the system the file came from i.e. PublishedTimetables, DailyOrganiser as well as a timestamp to let you know when it was downloaded e.g. a file with a timestamp of 2020-03-19T03-57-33-314Z was downloaded on 19/02/2020 at 3:57 am.

Better Custom Email Server Support and Testing

We identified that under certain circumstances users weren’t able to set Office365 as a custom email server. This has been fixed and should now return a success status. The systems account testing has also been expanded to also test custom Send-From addresses so that you know it will work, addresses that fail testing will not be available for use.
