Detailed Release Notes

AU/NZ Classification Codes

The following updates have been made in relation to the AU/NZ Classification Codes released July 2022.

Form Builder

  • We’ve added form object validations on the Simplified Form Builder so that it offers the same capabilities and prevents invalid data entry in the same way as the Advanced Form Builder.

Form Object Behavior

  • New validations have been added on the percentage fields to ensure that all fields on the form object are populated with valid data.
  • New validations have been added to ensure duplicate AU/NZ codes were not added to a single form object.
  • New updates have been added to make the new AU/NZ code form object accessible.

AU/NZ Code Data Records Display

  • SP Proposal/Award Dashboards
    • AU/NZ object fields have been added as available options to be displayed in the Award and Proposal dashboards. We’ve also added the ability to search for records based on these objects from the dashboard.
  • CSV/Reporting Updates
    • Updates have been made to improve the ability to display the AU/NZ code data within the downloaded CSV file or in-app reports, including the following use case: 

When a single record has multiple values for a single AU/NZ code type, each different code type will be displayed on a different line within the CSV or Report and all other column values will be repeated on each line.

  • Each AU/NZ code type has multiple columns associated with a single form object within the Dashboard, CSV, and in-app report.
