Feature Improvements
The app's field permission settings have been made more user-friendly.
You can now search for field names and quickly select which ones to set permissions.
A new feature has been added to the Process Management settings page. It checks whether the status can be deleted when the Delete button is clicked.
Before, the system only checked if the status could be deleted when the user clicked "Update App." If the status could not be deleted, an error message would be displayed, and the user would know for the first time that the status could not be deleted. Unfortunately, the entire app setting sometimes had to be discarded to undo the status deletion.
Now, users quickly realize that the status cannot be deleted and take action.
The PC version's header and side navigation bar has been migrated to the revamped parts of the front-end architecture.
There are no significant design changes. Some parts have been slightly modified to improve accessibility and standardize the UI components.
Our Kintone development team is in the process of revamping the development architecture. As part of this process, we have changed the date and time parsing library used for file importing.
After the July updates, an error may occur if a date and time format other than the ones listed in our Help is used during file import.
New Features in Development
You can input numeric values with commas as thousands of separators to make it easier to read and understand. When you copy a number with commas from elsewhere, you can paste and save it as is without deleting the commas.
Before, commas were only visible on the page after saving the record, but now they can also be seen on the edit page.
To activate this feature, go to "Kintone Administration" > "Update Options" > "New Features in Development" settings.
Please note that this feature is being developed, and the specific release date has yet to be determined.
