Enhancements

Release Note |
|---|---|---|
|
Professional Learning |
We’ve enhanced the External Credit Request (ECR) workflow by introducing a dedicated time field to the external credit form. Previously integrated within the date field, this standalone component allows users to input and display time in a clear HH: MM AM/PM format. This improvement provides greater precision for credit tracking while maintaining a consistent user experience across the platform. |

Administrators can now customize the workflow type manage approvals screen in PD admin by selecting specific columns based on ECR form fields. This update restores legacy functionality, providing greater configurability to help teams efficiently filter and identify specific requests, such as out-of-state approvals. When viewing all approvals, the system defaults to standard columns, ensuring a consistent experience while allowing for tailored data views when navigating specific workflows. |

Streamline Data Entry with New Sub Form Fields! |
We’ve introduced a new *Sub Form* field type to the ECR form builder, allowing administrators to create repeatable, structured data tables within a single request. Administrators can now configure up to 10 customizable columns—including text, date, time, and single-select dropdowns—to capture specific details like course names or credit hours. This enhancement enables requesters to add, edit, and manage multiple related entries efficiently, eliminating the need for separate submissions and streamlining the external credit approval process. |

Control Approver Visibility in Course Transfer Credits |
Administrators using the PDadmin version of Course Transfer Credits can now control the visibility of approvers within the TCM subsystem. A new configuration toggle in the Approval Workflow Processes allows you to enable or disable the "View Approver(s)" link for specific workflow steps. When enabled, credit requesters gain transparency into the approval chain. If disabled, sensitive approver information remains hidden at designated levels. These settings are automatically preserved when copying approval processes, ensuring consistency across workflows. Notably, approvers retain full visibility of the workflow regardless of these configuration settings. |
|
Professional Learning |
Instant Component Insights for TCM Records |
Administrators can now view component details directly from TCM records, mirroring the existing course functionality. When a component is attached to a TCM record, a "View Component" option becomes available, providing instant access to specific details. This feature is available only in the new ECR module to streamline record management. The option remains disabled when no component is selected, keeping the interface clean and functional. This enhancement does not apply to the admin preview form, which continues to use standard dropdowns. |

Resolved issue with incorrect display of approvers for Credit requests |
We’ve resolved an issue in the External Credit Request (ECR) workflow where requesters were shown an incorrect list of approvers. Previously, site-based routing rules were not accurately reflected in the user interface, leading to confusion regarding the review process. The system now correctly displays only the specific approvers or approval levels associated with the requester’s site. This update ensures full transparency for users tracking their credit requests and streamlines communication with the appropriate approval teams. |

Professional Learning |
Seamless Google Classroom Access |
We’ve resolved an issue where users encountered a 500 Error when clicking the "Go To Course" button in Google Classroom-integrated courses. This occurred for users with missing Google UserIDs, preventing them from accessing their professional learning materials. We have corrected the integration logic to ensure all users are correctly identified and redirected to their courses without interruption. This fix restores seamless access to integrated course content for all educators. |

Streamlined Roster Management: Instant Access for Approved Registrations |
To streamline the registration request process, we resolved an issue where newly approved participants were incorrectly appearing as "locked" on the roster. With this fix, once a registration request is approved, the participant is automatically unlocked and immediately available for administrative updates within the roster, provided the section itself is not locked. This ensures a smoother, more intuitive experience for managing course rosters across all sites. |
