Release Notes 3.8
Release 3.8 was released to Demo on the 5th March for customer testing and will be released to production on Monday 12th March.
New Features
Release 3.8 contains foundational changes to make way for the addition of Supplier and Community 'Sites' in future releases. The Sites changes will not be visible to the user in 3.8, however an explanation of how this will impact future functionality is explained below:
- Sites functionality will allow Unimarket to have a single parent supplier with multiple child supplier sites (e.g. different supplier branches). Each site will be able to have different supplier details, however they will be tied to a common parent record.
- On the Community side, Sites will allow a Community to identify multiple child sites such as internal organizations which can each have different information. For example, a University system will have the ability to define each University campus as a separate Site if needed.
