The following table lists items that are new or changed in FootPrints version 12.1.07:
Enhancement | Description | Topics updated | Community idea |
---|---|---|---|
Allow customers to view or edit tickets created by other users in their company or department | FootPrints allows you to have multiple contacts for a single organization. Sometimes, the user who initiated a support ticket might not be the one who responds to the queries or might be currently unavailable. The organizational unit feature allows users that belong to the same organization to view or update existing tickets that are linked to their organization. | View my company or my organization unit as a customer | |
Improved layout for record history | You can get a consolidated view of all updates grouped by a user or an action that initiated an update made to a record. You can also view more history data without having to navigate to another page or using filters to narrow down to view the relevant information. This allows you to quickly evaluate the history events. Note: Ensure that you review the getTicketDetails web service format that returns the ticket history and update the existing web service calls as the old format will break the existing call. | Easier to read History | |
Saved search list limited by role | A more efficient access to the Saved Searches as FootPrints now eliminates the searches with content that the user does not have permission to view. | NA | Ability to hide saved searches and managed searches through role permissions |
Improved keyboard navigation and 508 compliance | FootPrints provides additional keyboard shortcuts that users can use to perform actions and navigate across the application. This enables you to perform your job efficiently with the improved keyboard navigation. These keyboard shortcuts support the 508 compliance requirements for the users who need it (508 section 1194.21.a and 1194.31.f). | NA | |

There are very few things that would bring a smile to my face on the first day of work after a long weekend, but one of them is having a Video Overview of the new release. Thank you for this.
I'm glad Bill. I'm also glad the release warranted a video.
