Feature Updates
Streamlined Process Management: New Flexible Status Management Features
For example, you can configure actions that let a team member update the status on behalf of an assignee who has been away for a long time. Furthermore, the requester can now revert the request's status without waiting for the assignee's confirmation.
This increased flexibility broadens the scope of business processes we can manage effectively.
Example 1: Allowing the Assistant Manager to Update Status on Behalf of the Manager
If the section manager is absent for a long time, you can establish a process that allows the assistant manager to review requests and update their statuses as needed.
You can set up a process that allows the requester to revert the status to its original state if a mistake is found.
For urgent approvals, you can create a process that permits the final approver (the manager) to bypass confirmation from the assistant manager (the intermediate approver) and directly update the status to "Completed."
Other Updates
Redesign of the Administration Page Header
The front-end infrastructure of the Administration page header has been successfully updated.
Refer to the announcement regarding the App Settings Facelift for a comprehensive explanation of the changes made to the front-end architecture.
