We have added a new column on the table below called “Action Required” this shows several new status labels:
SETUP_REQUIRED - some setup will be required to use this element
NEW_PERMISSIONS - new permissions have been added
RECOMMEND_TRAINING - training is recommended - usually for new major features.
screen_changes - changes have been made to existing screens
This is to help highlight to you anything you need to ensure is set up for the day of release or in advance of this. We do still recommend that all of the release notes are read.
low impact medium impact high impact We are also adding a column for Potential Impact to you our customers, this is an estimation of any impact to your businesses the work may have. This is just offered as a guideline, as we appreciate you all use EPAPro slightly differently.
Epic | Key | Type | Action Required | Summary | Release Notes Description | Potential Impact |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| TASK |
| System - Library updates | We have performed internal upgrades to the various backend and frontend dependencies we have made. We have also done a minor upgrade to Bootstrap, our front-end visual framework, which will come with small tweaks to the look of the application. However, there will be nothing major. | low impact | |
| FEATURE |
| Notifications - Updating description | The description for the Assessment Resit notification has been changed to better and more accurately reflect to whom the notification is sent to. | low impact | |
| FEATURE |
| Global Search - Use permissions to control visibility | We have adjusted how the global search decides what user types to search on. Previously this was controlled by the user type, now it’s a combination of permissions and user type to add additional restrictions for some users. The global search will now work as follows for each of the user types it returns:
| medium impact There may be some potential changes you need to make if your current user types didn't have these permissions initially. | |
| FEATURE | NEW_PERMISSIONS | Apprentice Files - Edit Any permission | We have added a new “Edit Any” permission to apprentice files. A user with this permission will be able to edit any file that has been uploaded to the apprentice files section. To keep existing functionality this permission has been added to the owner and awarding organisation roles by default. Please note that any custom roles may need updating to have this permission if they’re are given to awarding organisation users as they require this functionality. | medium impact this will be dependent on your current user roles set up within EPAPro. | |
| FEATURE | RECOMMEND_TRAINING | Standards - Copy an existing standard | We have added functionality that allows the copying of existing standards. This copy feature can be accessed from either the header on the Standard management screen via the ‘Copy Standard As New' button, or on the Add standard screen via the ‘Create Copy of Existing Standard’ select. On being directed to the ‘Copy standard' screen all details relating to the standard being copied will be pre-filled except the following information on the ‘External Details’ tab:

| Users - Error when activating / deactivating (Remaining element of this is a display related fix, that we split out from the Hotfix Version 5.01.1 - 13/10/2022) | We have fixed an error when activating or deactivating some user types. We have also tweaked the status column on the listing screens replacing the full background with a badge which reduces the notice and provides a cleaner list. We have also fixed the EPA and EPAM listing screens which were using the incorrect status to decide the active or inactive state, this is unlikely to have shown the wrong result but was not consistent with the edit screen. These changes apply to:
