Improvements

  • Improved handling of archived modules in Training Structures

We have improved how Training Structures handle archived modules.

When a SCORM or Module Builder module is archived, any restrictions referencing that module are automatically removed, preventing invalid or blank restrictions from remaining in the structure.

Why this Matters

Archiving a module could previously leave behind broken restrictions, making Training Structures harder to update and maintain.

This update removes that friction and helps keep Training Structures valid and easy to manage.

Key Benefits

  • Automatic clean-up: Restrictions linked to archived modules are removed automatically
  • Easier updates: No need to manually fix broken or blank restrictions
  • More reliable behaviour: Training Structures remain valid after module changes

 


 

  • Improved Appraisal Question setup

We have improved how additional information settings work when configuring appraisal questions.

The Additional information mandatory for manager setting is now only available when Show additional text field is enabled. If the additional text field is switched off, the mandatory setting is also switched off automatically.

Why this Matters

Reviewers could previously be blocked from completing appraisals if a mandatory additional information field was enabled but the field itself was not visible.

This update helps prevent invalid appraisal question setups and makes configuration clearer.

Key Benefits

  • Clearer setup: Mandatory additional information is only available when the text field is visible
  • Fewer blockers: Reviewers are not blocked by mandatory fields they cannot complete
  • More reliable configuration: Invalid combinations are prevented automatically

 


 

  • Training Calendar in L&D menu for read-only users

We have made the Training Calendar visible in the L&D menu for users with read-only access.

Users with the appropriate permission can now access the Training Calendar through normal navigation, with read-only functionality applied.

Why this Matters

Users with read-only access could previously only access the Training Calendar via a direct link, making the feature harder to find and use.

Adding it to the L&D menu improves visibility and aligns it with how other features are accessed.

Key Benefits

  • Improved visibility: Training Calendar is accessible from the L&D menu
  • Consistent navigation: Aligns with how other features are accessed
  • Appropriate access: Users have read-only functionality as expected
