Feature Enhancements in v25.4

Issue Resolution

Platform Roles Alignment - BV01 Viewer Role

This release introduces a new standard role BV01 specifically for Platform Viewer license holders. This role provides strictly read-only access across the platform, resolving the previous issue where Viewer license users could unintentionally input values through workflows and forms. This standard BV01 role is also available for Bizview legacy users.

Key characteristics:

  • Read-only access to all assigned content

  • No input capabilities in forms or gridforms

  • No design mode access

  • Full viewing capabilities for reports, dashboards, and analytics

Platform Roles Alignment - BV20 Power User License Capability Extension

For scenarios where Power Users require Client Admin and Workflow Designer access (BV20 role), administrators can now grant this elevated permission through a new extension mechanism.

Custom Date Range for Log Viewing

This release provides a minor enhancement to Events Log and Jobs Log by removing the 'All' option and adding a Custom Date Range option in the View menu.

The 'All' option previously caused performance issues by attempting to load entire log histories containing millions of records, leading to browser timeouts and poor user experience.

The new Custom option opens a modal dialog with From Date and To Date pickers, allowing administrators to query specific date ranges. The View dropdown displays the selected date range as "Custom (MM/DD/YYYY - MM/DD/YYYY)" and persists until another option is selected. Date validation prevents invalid ranges, future dates, and ensures To Date is not before the From Date.

Default values as set as follows when not specified:

  • From Date - 30 days ago

  • To Date - today

AI Report Assist Dashboard Enhancement

This release provides a minor enhancement to AI Report Assist by adding support for three default dashboard areas: My Favourites, User Information, and Workflow Tasks.

Users can now prompt AI Report Assist to create these dashboard areas, and the system ingests the corresponding functions to successfully insert them into dashboards with correct data display.

This enhancement expands AI Report Assist capabilities to include these commonly used dashboard components that were previously only available through manual creation.
