Changes and Updates

Unless otherwise noted, you will see these changes on demo sites on 2020-08-27, then on live sites on 2020-09-04.

LS-66918: The Activities block gains the option of having a "Save and Add Time" button that, instead of creating a timeslip using the built-in mini-form, allows creating a timeslip with your shiny dynamic case timeslip.

LS-67078: The Report Part block (used to embed reports on pages) gets a new "Display Filters and Allow Changes" option. As it says on the tin, this option displays the embedded report's filters on the page. It shows any filter with a default value set by a report writer, and a button to show the other available filters. This allows users to temporarily change the filters; a page refresh/reload will set the filters back to the report defaults.

LS-67759: Added an Outreach > Address Information subtable to reports. NB: Some of you have old, old reports that used the city, state, zip, etc. fields from a "special" table. You'll need to replace those columns with the corresponding ones from the shiny new subtable. Your data will be there.

LS-68157: Stop document templates from dropping accented characters. For example, Peña will no longer show up as Pea in the generated document. Et voilà.

LS-68336: Changing Case Status went wonky. Fixed on all sites on 2020-08-21.
