HelpMaster v20

First released - February 2020

May 2020 Release

The May release addresses several issues with searching for control-set data, as well as other reported issues. This release also includes a range of enhancements and improvements for workflow - particularly with Control Sets.

The new “Show Control Set” workflow object can be used to display a control set for the user to fill-in at a certain point in a process workflow. This is a great way to capture data at different stages of a process. The control set validation can also be set so that required fields are correctly filled in.

All control set workflow objects now display in a drop-down box that groups the available control sets into 3 grouping:

On Job: Controls that are already part of the job
In Workflow: Control sets that appear, or are referenced in the workflow, but are not currently linked to the job
Others: All other control sets that are not part of the job, or workflow

This simple grouping makes it easier to understand the context of how Control Sets are being using within your jobs and workflow.

In addition to the fixes and enhancements, the HelpMaster development team have been developing the next-gen web portal that will appear in a future release.
