Improved reporting of updates and hotfixes

The LMS Documentation 9.x help space now includes an improved method of reporting updates and hotfixes in UniFocus Release Notes.

In versions 9.14 through 9.18 of UniFocus Release Notes, update and hotfix notes appeared in every affected version. For each version of the release notes, the Updates and hotfixes notification section included an overview of the issue and a link to the corresponding Fixed issues page.

Starting with

RMS

• A centralized view of all updates and hotfixes—The new Updates and hotfixes for 9.x releases page consolidates all release notes for updates and hotfixes to 

  RMS

  9 software. You no longer have to check each UniFocus Release Notes version to determine whether an update or hotfix has been added to your software version. All notes are now available in a single page.  
• Additional information—The Updates and hofixes for 9.x releases page contains an overview table with key information about each change:
  • Date—The date when the update or hotfix was published.
  • Ticket—The ticket number for the update or hotfix.
  • Overview—A summary of the change.
  • Category—The main component of UniFocus software that was affected by the change.
  • Type—Whether the change was an update or hotfix.
  • Updated Versions—UniFocus RMS software versions that are affected by the change.

• Improved user experience—Not only does the overview table contain important information about each ticket, but it also allows you to sort by column headers and quickly access the detailed note by clicking the link in the Ticket column.

   Click here for instructions on sorting the table.

  Click any column header to change the sort order of the table. For example, if you want to see the newest updates, click the Date column to move the most recent changes to the top of the table.

  Clicking a link in the table takes you directly to the corresponding update or hotfix note. 

  

  Tip: If you are looking for a specific ticket, just press Ctrl+F (or Command+F in Mac) and enter the ticket number. If the note is on the page, you'll find results in both the overview table and in the detailed notes section.

• Improved notifications in affected release notes—On the landing page of affected UniFocus Release Notes, the Updates and hotfixes notification section still contains summary statement of each change. However, the link in the section now takes you to the Updates and hofixes for 9.x releases page for more information.

   Example:

  Using the example above, the note for ticket 19038 is introduced as a fixed issue for the primary Fix Version 9.17 and then added to the Updates and hotfixes for 9.x releases page. The Updates and hotfixes sections of affected release notes now contain a single link to the Updates and hotfixes for 9.x releases page.

  

• Build numbers added to updates and hotfixes section—In previous versions of the UniFocus Release Notes, updates and hotfixes were grouped by the date when the release note was published to the online help space. Starting with this release, updates and hotfixes are now grouped by build number. The build number is the number associated with the software release version.
