This release focuses on platform stability, improved functionality, and enhanced user experience. Here's what's new:

✨ New Features & Enhancements

• Post‑submission corrections via Pending Correction (IC can add deficiencies; no deletions): Enabled Inspection Companies to add deficiencies and change report status from Compliant to Deficient during the Pending Correction phase, while preventing deletion of existing deficiencies. Updated the workflow to ensure all corrections are initiated by AHJ, maintain a complete audit trail, and provide clear notifications and UI guidance throughout the correction and approval process. This enhancement improves deficiency tracking integrity, streamlines post-submission corrections, and ensures accurate communication to all stakeholders.
• In-line Deficiency Management with Digital Reports: When using the digital reports with the auto-deficiency creation process, we've updated the workflow to include an inline modal that will populate the field data from the inspection form into the Deficiency details, allowing you to enter the deficiency details immediately and then save. This will save the deficiency to the Form workflow, and allow you to continue with your report process without having to scroll to enter additional details. 
• Automated Deficiency Follow-up Notification (Second Notice): We have now added an automated deficiency follow up email notification template that can be configured to send based on a time interval set by the AHJ. This secondary notification follow up can be configured to your preference and timing, and will automatically send a follow up notice to premises contacts informing them the deficiency is still past due. To enable this feature, please connect with our support team.

🛠 Platform Improvements

• [AHJ]-[Parent AHJ sorter is not working properly]: Implemented and validated correct sorting logic for the AHJ parent column, ensuring that clicking the column title now consistently sorts entries as expected. This update improves data organization and enhances user experience when navigating and managing AHJ records.

• Role-Based Comment Permissions and Edit/Deletion Restrictions on Reports: Enhanced role-based logic for comment section on Inspection Report Details ensuring clarity of when specific comments can be added/edited/deleted for all users including AHJ, Inspection Company and Premises users.

• Past Due Inspection Report - Mass Email - Assign Template: Added the ability to send a mass email using the Past Due Template from the "Past Due Inspection Report" page. You can now select, and will have the ability to mass email any selected user listed in the Past Due Inspection Report page and will send or re-send the past due email template.
• API: create webhooks api's: Introduced new API endpoints for managing webhooks, enabling users to programmatically create, update, and delete webhook configurations. This enhancement streamlines integration with external systems and automates event-driven workflows, providing greater flexibility and control for developers.

We also included the GeoZone assignement button to be placed at the top of the map for better functionality. This will improve the use of the Pre Plan Module
• Custom Payment Receipt for Paid Internal Reports and Public Permit Payments: We've now added the ability to send invoices that will better represent the AHJ by offering a customized invoice template for use in internal paid inspections, and permits being offered. This will avoid end users receiving an invoice from LIV, where it primarily pertains to capturing a payment from the Fire Department
• Corrections on system type creation at AHJ Child: Updated the system to ensure that premises assigned by a Child AHJ now correctly receive the appropriate child system types, and retroactively corrected existing reports to reflect these assignments. This enhancement improves data consistency and ensures accurate reporting for all affected premises.
• Premises Details - Hydrant Fire Flow Field: We added a new field to the Premises Details to enter "Hydrant Fire Flow" to collect details associated to any Fire Hydrant and allow storage of Fire Hydrant Flow for tracking. This is an option field now available.

🐞 Bug Fixes

• Downloading Emailed Notices: Updated the email notice download functionality to ensure the full content of emailed notices is included in the generated PDF from the premises email log. Users can now reliably download complete email messages without missing or cut-off content, improving accuracy and record-keeping.
• Fix Search Query Handling for Apostrophes in Premise Names (OpenSearch): Enhanced the premise search functionality by updating query handling and OpenSearch analyzer configurations to properly support apostrophes in premise names. Users can now reliably find premises whether or not they include apostrophes in their search queries, ensuring consistent and accurate search results.

This ensures a predictable and user-friendly experience when clearing filters, aligning the behavior with user expectations.
• undefined array key due date: Added validation to ensure the "due_date" array key is present before access, preventing undefined key errors and improving application stability. This update enhances error handling and ensures a smoother user experience when managing due dates.
• [BUG] Schedule Re-Inspection Date Selection: Resolved bug where selecting a specific calendar date, instead of the pre-defined day selection now allows save and creation.
• [BUG] - Deficiency Map View - Not displaying data or filtering to user: Resolved Deficiency Map View to display appropriately.
• External Premise Creation Form For Fire Watch Feature: Updated the external premise creation workflow to correctly transfer and display the entered address, ensure the AHJ field is populated and editable upon approval, and fully render the linked external form data within the premise profile. These enhancements provide a seamless experience for users managing Fire Watch premises, allowing AHJs to accurately view and manage all submitted information.
• State selection is missing data: Updated the data retrieval logic for state, country, and city selectors to ensure the full list of options is displayed. Adjusted backend queries and frontend rendering to prevent incomplete data loading, providing users with comprehensive and accurate selection choices.
