🪄 API mavens should review the always interesting and informative API Changelog.
📆 LS-113911: Do you let folks schedule appointments in your online intake(s) of wonder? You may be over the moon about the new Scheduled Appointments column available in the "Case/Matter - Electronic Case Transfer, Received" list view (colloquially: incoming etransfers list). Will it contain the date and time of scheduled appointments? Will it contain clickable links? We won't spoil your fun finding out.
😱 😊 LS-115213: Did you read this "The search for a lead case does not include any case associated (tagged as being the same client) with the case you are on."? Did you emit a Brando-like cry of "WHYYYYY?!"? If so, regain your calm, as we've removed that restriction.
🔍 ☎️ LS-116487: Search results for 1-512-555-5555 are different than the results for 512-555-5555. What to do? If the sought after phone number is 11 digits and starts with a 1, drop the 1, do the search.
🔂 LS-116607: Your Pending Case Transfers report of delightful data will now let you pull in phone number information on said pending transfers.
⭐ ⭐ LS-116752: Email Address is now an available column for your incoming etransfers list (colloquially: "Case/Matter - Electronic Case Transfer, Received"). Your busy intake kids may find that quite helpful.
🧣 LS-116885: Workflow mavens may find the new trigger type "New Case Current Client - Act on Prior Cases" intriguing. "Client" and "Prior Cases" are used in the LegalServer sense of associated cases that have the same Client ID.
🔍 LS-117052: The Organization Affiliation filter on the Recommended Pro Bono Users list view is now a search and select instead of a dropdown list (of possibly thousands of organizations).
⬆️ ⬇️ LS-117448: Ever wanted to set a default sort on the "Case/Matter - Cases" list view (that likely powers the first tab on your main Cases page)? Take a peek at the new Default Sort field selector and Default Sort Direction selector in the list view configuration. Not all fields are available for the sort, but you may find the one you want.
🔍 🔁 LS-117763: Have you ever put something in the search box on the Admin page, clicked a link in the results, decided it wasn't what you wanted, hit your browser's back button, then grumbled about needing to re-enter your search term? One less thing to be grumbly about.
