The following changes have been made to the Authenticate platform


Specification Data Copy


When a user responds to a specification request and clicks to 'accept', if they have previously completed any specifications they now have the option to 'copy' data


If there are any previously completed specifications, users will have the option to 'start a new specification' or select an existing one to 'copy' from. If there are no specifications to copy from, a new specification will be created, applying any associated data as current


When selecting an individual specification to 'copy', users can select individual sections (existing in both the original specification and the new request) to copy


Once submitted, any sections which are not selected, will have details for any associated data sets applied


Where a request is set to apply 'variations', the parent variations will be applied regardless of existing data been copied for this section



Assessment Scheduler Self Raising




When requesting dates from a supplier to perform an assessment, an optional attachment can now be added


Once the site response is received, an assessment can now be raised directly from the response. A proposal can still be requested from a third party to complete the assessment at this stage if this is required


Non Conformance Sub Types


When creating site non-conformance's, users can now select new types and add associated sub-types based on the type selection


Once a non-conformance has been created, the assignee's set to manage the non-conformance can now be edited to pass ownership to other users to allow completion



Fixes and Improvements


The following additional changes have also been made as part of this release:


Assessments


  • Fixed bug showing a validation message when changing a managed assessment


Navigation


  • Fixed bug preventing the header search type being changed on some pages


Product Mapping


  • The date range to show 'rejected' requests has been updated from 30 days to 60 days when viewing the mapping progress page

Site Actions


  • Updated logic completion a non-conformance to only allow the 'creating company' to complete. This means that if a non-conformance is uploaded, only the uploading company can complete and, if a non-conformance is created in the system and then 'ownership' is transferred, it must be transferred back to the creating company for completion
  • Fixed bug showing filters behind the table header on the listings page


Specifications


  • Updated companies/supplier/search api end point to include all additional company data


Task Outbox


  • The task outbox has now been paginated to improve performance
  • When filtering, multiple 'types' can now be selected
  • The 'product link' option has been added back in to the 'type' filter options
