Display User's Current Role

When the user has multiple roles, and the Switch User Roles feature is enabled (which means users can adopt only one role at a time), the currently-selected role is displayed in the page header, next to the user's name.

Email Addresses and URLs are Always Active

Documentation Enhancements

Session Management

Session limits can be specified, to limit the number of concurrent sessions a user is allowed to have.
Learn more: Session Management

Task Assignment Notifications Controlled by Rules

When a task is created or re-assigned to someone else, an email notification is sent to the new task owner, by default. In new customer accounts, the behavior in each situation is now under the control of an Event Rule defined on the Tasks object, allowing notifications to be turned off or conditionalized so they are sent out only specified circumstances.
Learn more: Controlling Task-Assignment Notifications

The column header was hard-coded to say "Case", and wasn't changing when the object name was changed--for example, to "Incidents", or "Investigations". Other columns display fields. Those column headings can be modified by changing field labels.)

Documentation Enhancements

April Release (2 May 2015)

Sorting a View on a Multi-Object Lookup Field

A multi-object Lookup field like the related_to field in a Task record has the capacity to target multiple objects. In the past, it has not been possible to use such fields for sorting. However, objects like Tasks typically point to only one kind of record (Cases). When creating a view, therefore, it is now possible to select the target record (Cases), causing the view to be sorted Tasks by the Cases they relate to. (In the unlikely that a record targets a different object, that record is not included in the view.)
Learn more: List Views#Customizing a List View

Change to Callable Processes

  • The [New Callable Process] button lets you specify that the process will be a callable subprocess when you start creating it. That button replaces the checkbox that appeared only when you were saving the process you defined.
  • When creating a callable process, there is no longer an option to add a step that executes another (second-level) callable process.
