Product Updates, October 23–November 5, 2026

Workflows & Review

  • Meta-aware workflow questions: workflow questions can pull in content from other parts of the application, for example listing reviewers or committee assignments.

  • Workflow email addresses: step action emails can use a workflow-specific sender and reply-to address.

  • External review letters in Documents: submitted letters now appear on the workflow Documents page.

Faculty Profiles & Activities

  • Manual timeline events: admins can add timeline events with a label, date, and icon, and edit or delete them later.

  • Timeline event controls: institutions can show or hide auto-generated timeline event types while keeping custom field events.

  • Leave timeline fields: leave records support configurable timeline display fields, including multi-select terms such as "Fall + Spring."

  • Multiple activity attachments: faculty activities support several files per activity, with existing files preserved and shown in the activity view.

  • Unit-specific activity configurations: institutions can tailor activity categories and their properties by school or department.

  • Multiple email addresses: User pages have editable email lists with labels such as Work or Personal.

  • Email delivery controls: outbound email can go to all associated addresses, with per-address controls for non-primary addresses.

  • Duplicate status refresh: potential-duplicate flags on staged CV imports update when faculty activities on the profile change.

  • Appointment view page: appointment records can be opened to show all fields without clicking Edit.

Document Export

  • Activity table display in PDFs: activity tables in downloaded PDFs are reformatted to better display all information on the page.

Imports & Integrations

  • Effective-dated custom field imports: mapped imports can load an effective-dated history of values for profile and appointment custom fields

  • Multiple SFTP connections: each customer can have several isolated SFTP connections, including username and password authentication.

Admin & Configuration

  • Paste emails to select users: pasting email addresses into a user-selection field selects the matching users.

  • Appointment ending soon notification: the warning window can be set per institution, e.g. 3 months or 6 months prior to the appointment end date

Accessibility

  • Focus retention: focus returns to the previously active element after page updates and asynchronous actions.

  • Grid keyboard navigation: Tab exits a grid instead of stepping through every cell, and each grid has an accessible name.

  • Grid sort announcements: screen readers announce sorting accurately even when it finishes mid-update.

  • Rich-text editor: toolbar controls are named for screen readers and the editor border has higher contrast.

  • Code editors: keyboard users can leave code editors with Esc and Tab, and editors have clearer names.

  • User picker: search has a labeled input, visible focus, announced result counts, and email fallback names.

  • Focus rings and contrast: checkboxes and radio buttons have more visible focus rings, and "Saved." indicators have higher contrast.
