Releases/Autumn 2022

From Resco's Wiki
Warning Work in progress! We are in the process of updating the information on this page. Subject to change.

Release 15.2 is planned for September 2022.

Daily control over audit log maintenance

Auditing logs can get large... fast. Woodford administrators on Dynamics have now more control over how often the system checks the total volume of audit data. The data can now be evaluated on daily basis: Set Run Every to "1 day".

Use button to trigger commands

You can now bind commands (both built-in and custom) to form buttons. Tapping the button on the form triggers the command. In these scenarios, you don't need to specify button click rules.

This feature used to be available on select platforms and apps; with this release, it is universally available. Also, the configuration parameters in Woodford now offer tooltips to help you configure buttons.

New browser component in Microsoft Store app

The UWP version of the app (from Microsoft Store) now supports an alternative web browser component, i.e., the engine responsible for rendering HTML content.

Support for key-value MDM configuration for Android devices

implemented via Intune MAM SDK specifically for Intune.

Resco Cloud API changes

Due to Resco Cloud migration, the URL for API is changing.

  • Old: https://{organization}.rescocrm.com/rest/v1/data
  • New: https://{organization}.app.resco.net/rest/v1/data

Also, the following methods are now available:

  • POST GetRecordCount - Get the number of entity records.
  • POST Export - Export the organization data and metadata.

Inspections

Improved grid layout editor

Last year, we introduced the option to display multiple questions in one row. In this release, the configuration user interface of this feature received a badly needed refresh in the Questionnaire Designer. Most notably, there's now a visual indicator in case you have overlapping fields and you can easily select such fields now.

Restrict image/media actions

Designers of the questionnaire templates now have even finer control over how their users can answer image/media questions. For example, you might decide to disable some/most of the options to make sure that your inspectors answer the questions in the right way. Eliminate unnecessary options to reduce user errors.

Restrict image/media display size

You can limit the display size of image answers in the app. For example, you can set an image height limit to ensure that tall images don't cause inspectors to scroll needlessly.

Smart styles for yes/no questions

Smart styles offer an easy way to change the visual (color, font, ...) of a question depending on an answer. For example, when a question might light up in red when the inspector reports an error. In this release, smart styles are enabled for yes/no type questions.

Select language for questionnaire reports

If you are using localization of questionnaire templates, the same languages are now also available for your reports.

Skip unanswered questions in reports

There's now an option in questionnaire template properties that allows you to include only answered questions in your reports.

Dynamics backend integration improvements

The default view and form of the questionnaire entity on Dynamics backend have been redesigned. The Questionnaire Player now accessible using the Run Player button.
