We are thrilled to announce the latest series of updates and improvements across our platform. With a focus on enhancing usability, administrative features, and backend stability, we aim to provide our users with a more seamless and efficient experience. Below are the highlights of our latest release:

Backend Improvements improvement 

• PDF Upload Optimization: Updated constraints to remove blank pages and limit PDF uploads to a maximum of 50 pages.
• S3 Storage Clean-up: Implemented clean-up processes for AWS structure to improve data organization and access efficiency. 
• Bug Fixes: Addressed a critical bug affecting the 'submit and save report' function and resolved Laravel model issues post-update for smoother backend operations.

Customer-Centric Updates New Feature 

• Knoxbox Description Field: Added a description field for Knoxbox, allowing for more detailed information to be captured and displayed. 
• System Type Field Adjustment: Made the Last Service Date optional instead of required when adding a system type, offering more flexibility in data entry. This is used to provide a known last service date of a system type that may be added to LIV that the inspection was submitted prior to go-live. This will allow you to enter a date, and then leverage the LIV notification system and reports to see next due date(s). This only needs to be used when adding a system type to a premise that a report was sent to the Fire Department, before LIV was available. 

Hotfixes fix 

• Columnset Saving Issue: Adjusted columnsets to ensure they are saved correctly, addressing a critical usability concern.
• Phone Field Resolution: Fixed an issue with the phone field in the create user modal, ensuring accurate data capture. 

Future Preparation New Feature Feature Request 

• Some features such as the Internal Paid Report Section preparation work are not live yet and are in preparation for future releases. More to come on this as it becomes available. 

This release underscores our commitment to continuously improving our platform to meet the evolving needs of our users. We appreciate your feedback and are excited to see how these updates will enhance your experience with our service.

Thank you for your continued support and trust in our platform. Stay tuned for more updates in the future!
