August 2024 Official Release (5.0.0.71)

This month’s release offers many enhancements and bug fixes as well as some updates to our latest new feature, ReportWORQ Contribution.

PowerPoint has received support for Excel text boxes, merged cell and text boxes with cell ranges. We have new selection dialogs when selecting source reports, additional files in the distribution options, and PowerPoint templates. We have made some performance improvements to the RWSUPPRESS formula. Users can now dynamically configure job distribution options in the API to choose output format and destination. We have also added support for format range row heights in Planning Analytics dynamic report. Users concerned with password security in ODBC and OLEDB connection strings can now use encrypted substitution variables.

We have made many improvements to ReportWORQ contribution. The navigation experience in the Contribution input Web form and view screen has been enhanced, and we have added the ability to have the same user be both a contributor and an approver. The ability to specify enforcing input validation in the Contribution RW.CHECK formula, before a form can be submitted has been implemented. Users can now enable or disable the Contribution options in bulk when importing or exporting Contacts. We have added Email From and Bcc options for Contribution Campaigns. Users now have the ability for Contributors in a Contribution Campaign to download (and upload) the input form for contributing directly in Excel.

Hello Everyone! Just a quick update to this months version of ReportWORQ. We had a small problem with our build for this months release, so while all the features listed above remain accurate, the version number is now 5.0.0.73. I apologize for any confusion this may cause when updating ReportWORQ.

Have a great month,
