Release Update

Welcome to the Knowledgebase Release Notes page.

Please find the current month’s release notes below, as well as links to the historical release notes for each year below.

Analytics Improvements

Activity Action codes in the document history results now will display the friendly name of the action with the code returned in queries.
iManage and NetDocuments users will not be forced to include empty columns in their analytics report if the columns are not necessary for the system.

Metadata Changes

Entering new metadata will restrict users from inputting non-alpha-numeric characters except the underscore, that are unsupported to be used.

Move Tier Feature Updates

Whenever a document is moved and the author or operator is not present in the target location, CAM now will allow a default global user to be set from the Admin settings, since both fields are required to not be empty.
Documents that are checked out will not be displayed to end users from within the Move command window from Analytics or Service Desk, because users cannot move documents that are already checked out.

Permission Changes

Service Desk Updates

When exporting documents from Service Desk, information on any checked out metadata is now included with the export, such as “Checked Out Date” and “Checked Out By (User)”.

Request Workflow Usability

Request Workflow is now sorted alphabetically instead of the creation date so it is easier for users to find their workflow.

Accessibility and User Interface Improvements

Alt image descriptions and titles have been added in the CAM Administration, Overview, Controls Center, Content Mover, Data Sync, Directory, Downloads, Jobs tab, Metadata, Request Workflow, Source System Configuration, and Users and Groups for accessibility screen readers and other purposes.
The Source Systems panel has a new look and filtering capability to make it easier to see your source systems and find the ones you need to look at. Many firms will have quite a few source systems and maintaining them will be easier.

Metadata Changes

Metadata in Provisioning can be disabled via CSV by appending ?false onto the column.

Notification Caching and Checks

Caching for Background Job email notifications is added to prevent duplicate email notifications from being sent out at once. This runs every 5 minutes and checks if a duplicate email is already in the queue.
Additionally, if an authentication error appears 10 times within 20 minutes, authentication failure emails will be sent after that time. This eliminates issues with clients being ‘spammed’ with multiple emails each couple of minutes or multiple emails for the same error.

Linked Workspace Improvements

Link Workspace jobs are now treated as background jobs, and this panel is enhanced to handle the logging and management of these jobs.
Changes to Template Editor behavior for the deletions of templates and linked workspaces have been made. Read here for details.

Provisioning Validations for Workspace Creations

Whenever the iManager indexer gets overloaded, CAM does a validation if it cannot locate a workspace using the unique ID, it then searches using the workspace ID. This eliminates issues where CAM would potentially duplicate the workspace since the indexer could not find the workspace.
