2026-05-13 Release Notes
Everyone involved is excited about these nice folks going live next week:
Changes
👉 👉 Effective 2026-05-14 for demo sites, then 2026-05-22 for live sites. 👈 👈
🪄 API mavens should review the always-informative, interesting, and ever-changing API Changelog.
🫴 LS-141048: If you transfer cases and your recipient(s) complain about the Data Transfer Summary note on their cases having a bunch of MLP fields that are always blank, consider going to the Admin > Configure Case Transfer page and flipping the new Allow MLP fields on outgoing transfers setting to No. Unless you are using the MLP fields, then don't do that.
📅 LS-141903: The Docket View [citation needed] of the calendar gets a new Client Status lookup field with default values of Ready and Not Ready.
⚡ LS-141906: Charges can be complicated. We're making a Penalty Class Reporting Type attribute available for each Charge Penalty Class lookup value. The list of Reporting Type values is itself a lookup list, populated with whatever you desire. Given "Reporting Type" in the name, you might guess it will be available in reports, and you would be correct.
⚖️ LS-142179: The Volunteer Enrollment block that is part of SimpleJustice Pro Bono Opportunities displays Volunteer links, but they don't work. Workability being added.
🎫 LS-142662: The hint shown for Active Personal Access Tokens will be the last 4 characters of each token, as was intended from the get go.
📋 LS-143059: The first step of Mass Assignment Updates does not list all assignment types. It should. So it shall.
⭐ ⭐ LS-143363: "Can you please, please give a newly created report an ID as soon as you land on the edit page so the Copy URL icon and the fantabulous new "Run Mode" link will both work without needing a page refresh?" Bugs you too, eh? Consider it on the way.
🌊 LS-143570: Add Workflow support for Clinic Event Appointments.
🌊 LS-143571: Create an Hours Since Datetime workflow trigger type.
📃 LS-143605: If you choose to add an Additional Assignment on the disposition step of an intake, should there be any scenario in which the Assignment Type selector is an empty list of nothing? No it should not. So it shall not be.
➰ LS-143736: An NLU (colloquially: Natural Language Understanding) process might not realize it is finished and loop back to the beginning. Loop prevention is on the way.
📅 LS-143739: You can have the Attendees field on your shiny dynamic event form default to the Primary Assignment when you add an event from a case. But what about when you add one from the calendar and link the event to a case? Doesn't work currently, but we are making it so.
✏️ LS-143844: Edit pencils on Hidden Columns in reports are broken. Clickability will be restored. You can click on the label next to a pencil in the interregnum.
⭐ LS-143851: The LS4 login page text shown when Single Sign On is Enabled and Required is okay, but you'd prefer your own prose, tailored to what your kids will understand. If that's you, surely you will enjoy seeing the new SSO Required Message text box on the Admin > SSO page.
📧 LS-143864: Add an Email Address field to Office Records (Admin > Offices).
LS5
Are you testing LS5? You may find the following useful, interesting, or both.
⭐ LS-143032: Busy advocates should not need to click around in LS5 to see more than 20 assignments on their home page. Enter the new Default Page Size option in the Current Assignments list view. Up to 500 should be plenty.
❤️ LS-140935: The Search box on lists on the main Reports page will start doing what you expect in LS5. A few other little touches thrown in, including the Grinch-sized heart icons growing three sizes.
🔍 LS-141351: The Remote Service Editor (Remote Cases) can present dropdown lists of users. The block configuration is getting a Use AJAX Search option for such fields, in case you have a lot of users.
👩🔬 LS-143595: The Multiple Outcomes V2 block is not honoring the "Only show outcomes for this group" option in LS5, thus allowing undesired outcomes to be entered. Option honoring on the way.
🛠️ LS-143599: Use Static Default Values in the Assets block displays rows in LS5 that are not configured to show anything, thus allowing entry of asset types you don't want. Wants will be honored.
🎹 LS-143614: Using the keyboard in LS5 to enter dates in the Timekeeping Log Date of Service filter is frustrating. Relief is on the way.
🖱️ LS-143621: When editing a form in LS5, would you like the links in the Processes Using This Form section to do something when you click on them? Of course you would. So they will.
⏳ LS-143638: The Timer looks spiffy in LS5, but has the slight flaw of not being able to stop it and create a timeslip. Flaw removal is on the way.
🔗 LS-143641: The "Manual (Display Link)" option for external forms does not display a link to use in LS5. Linkage being added.
🖱️ LS-143690: Make sure pending case transfer lists give people something to click on in LS5.
🪗 LS-143803: LS5 accordion borders are getting more accordion-y.
⌚ LS-143811: Got EVT or AGM? Surely you will be pleased to see the My Time popup include all the pay period detail you love so much in LS4.
⏳ LS-143933: Time verifiers (EVT / AGM) miss the valuable information LS5 does not display when they hover over the icons in the Warnings column. Valuable information being added.
