What's New in 19R3.3
The Align19R3.3 release includes several new features as well as User Visible and Behavior Changes.
Our release notes offer brief, high-level descriptions of enhancements and new features. Configuration is available by selecting the feature name.
New Objects and New Fields are also included.
Features
Roster Management Enhancements
Align admins can create and manage CRM users directly within Align, simplifying the alignment process by enabling the administrator to perform these actions in Align rather than in CRM. Align administrators can use the User Management module to perform the following tasks:
- Control which users are mastered by Align versus CRM. Mastering refers to which system is responsible for managing changes made to a record. Changes made to a record on non-mastered systems are overwritten during the next data synchronization.
- Update roster members in Align and push the changes to CRM
- Create new roster members in Align and push the new record to CRM along with all of the proper assignments
User Visible and Behavior Changes
Most new features require some configuration, however users are able to view the following changes immediately:
Targeting Feedback
- The Accounts table now displays more columns on a single screen to minimize the need to scroll horizontally
- The header row in the Accounts table repeats every ten rows in the table, enabling users to easily see which column corresponds to which goal
- Users can now increase product goals to be greater than the corresponding channel goal. If a product goal is increased to be greater than the channel goal, the channel goal automatically updates with the new product goal
- The target icon on Account table rows now updates when submitting an add or remove target challenge, rather than only updating once a challenge is approved
Roster Management
- The new CRM User Management section now displays on all roster_member__aln record detail pages. This section displays the following fields mapped to the User object in CRM:
- mastered_by_align__aln
- crm_user_status__aln
- crm_profile__aln
- crm_role__aln
- alias__aln
- username__aln
- manager__aln
- delegated_approver__aln
- email__aln
- email_encoding__aln
- crm_language__aln
