Essentials Release 3.8

Take a look at the new features and improvements of our 4App Essentials, version 3.8 (December, 15th, 2020).

Admin information

Automatically delete contacts when deleting users

You now have the option to automatically delete a synchronized contact from the contacts module each time you delete a 4ALLPORTAL user.
Go to the admin snap-in "Synchronized users" (General system configurations/User settings) and find the new switch "Delete contact when user is deleted".

• Enable if you always want contacts to be deleted when deleting corresponding users.
• Disable if contacts of deleted users should remain in your contacts module. (default)

Add function "Synchronize all users"

We added the function "Synchronize all users" to our "Users" admin snap-in (General system configurations/User settings). It comes in handy after adding or editing mappings in your admin snap-in "Synchronized users". Changed mappings require a new synchronization for already synchronized users (= users which were automatically created as contacts). You can now synchronize them all with one click.
Find this function as a new action in your toolbox. You may also select and synchronize only certain users.

Other changes

• The field due_date of the module task is not longer a CETimestamp field. It is now a CEDate field. Now, the dates in email notifications should be correct.
• Only allow user with feature permission global.has_superadmin to set role of users
• Add tooltips to main view (header, subheader, left sidebar, search control and rich tile). For detailed information have a look at the CoreEngine's Release Notes (3.8.).

Resolved bugs

• Fix issue with change field due_date of the module task to CEDate. Now allow value null in field.
