Changes
π Effective 2025-06-26 for demo sites, then 2025-07-04 for live sites. π
πͺ API mavens should review the always informative, interesting, and ever changing API Changelog.
π LS-11674: If you send external forms to clients and others, you will be very excited to see that you can now set Identity Verification text per verification type in the new External Forms Settings section of the Admin > Process Settings page. But wait, there's more. You can override your shiny new default verification text per process if you need to. What's not to love.
π LS=115004: There is a new Case Data > Matter Date Open Range subtable available in reports. The Date Open Range field on that subtable looks at a case's entire disposition history, and will produce multiple rows on a report if a case has been opened and closed multiple times. The existing Date Open Range that you already know and love will continue to work as is. But if your kids like opening, closing, and re-opening cases (sometimes multiple times), the new field may be just what you need.
π LS-129025: For sites with Multiple Language Support, the "Business Name" placeholder text displayed by the Online Intake Opposing Parties block will now be translated (if you have translated that phrase on the system translation page).
ππ½ββοΈ LS-130866: The Waiver feature no longer requires you to select a document template when approving a waiver.
ππ½ββοΈ LS-130868: The Waiver feature now lets you un-approve a previously granted waiver by editing it, changing Yes to No, and then kicking off the process you specify in the new "Change LSC Ineligibility Process" selector on the Admin > Process Settings page.
0οΈβ£ LS-131085: Should AGM or EVT warn you about 0.00 hours of overtime or comp time? Every person that happened to said "No", so we'll stop doing that.
π LS-131520: If someone can see the enticing "View Content (Beta)" button on a document profile page, should they get "Not allowed to view page" if they click it? Of course not. So they won't. After this change lands.
π LS=131559: AGM super mavens will be pleased to hear they can add the Allocation Amendments list view to forms free of errors.
π¦ LS-131837: The Address List block on a case profile displays the address history, but lacks a Notes column to display text entered in the eponymous field. You can click an "Edit" link to load an auxiliary form to see the Notes, but wouldn't it be grand if you could see them directly on the case profile with no need to invoke a pointing device? You thought so. We agreed.
π π¨πΌβπ LS-131729: Hapless online applicants could see "Unknown error when fetching appointments" instead of a list of appointment slots, or a message that no slots are available. People need information, not error messages, so we fixed this. Fix pushed out to all online intake sites on 2025-06-24 at 1:30 PM Eastern.
