Earlier Release logs

 Releases 2020

December 23rd 2020

Bugfix release

  • fixes some problems when showing pre-assigned reviewers (reviewers assigned by using the workflow builder as shown below) on the Workflow Report

              

December 16th 2020

We are introducing some security improvements onto the current approvals configuration different setting options.

  • Anyone can approve (no restrictions)
    • from now on, approvals with the configuration Anyone can approve (no restrictions) won't be assignable anymore
    • workflow state dialog will NOT ALLOW reviewers assignation

  • Users can be assigned through the (workflow popup) UI
    • this option allows manual assignation of reviewers by using the workflow state dialog. This will remain working the same as now. → So It will still be possible to leave the approval with no assignees or assign specific reviewers:


Workflow state dialog will ALLOW the assignment of reviewers, but you can add users in the approval editor to allow PRE_ASSIGNMENT of reviewers.

A user with VIEW & EDIT permissions over the content will view enabled approve/reject buttons but these approve/reject buttons are disabled if a user has been assigned but the current logged-in user is NOT ASSIGNED to the approval.


  • Set all reviewers that have to approve
    • from now on, approvals with this configuration won't be assignable anymore. It'll still be mandatory to pre-assign the set of reviewers to the approval

    • workflow state dialog will NOT ALLOW the assignment of reviewers. A user accessing the content who is not assigned as a reviewer will see the approve/reject buttons disabled (greyed out)



October 15th 2020

Now you can set a minimum number of approvals/rejections (whatever happens first) for the approval to transition even when the approval setting is defined as "Set all reviewers that have to approve" (up until now you could set a minimum just for the other two approval settings).

September 16th 2020

A fix in the workflow builder so that states that are referenced in triggers can have their names changed.

April 24th 2020

Resolved issue with email notifications for approvers on the QMS workflow.

April 7th 2020

The new name better describes the scope and use of the app. While workflows will continue to play an important role, Comala Document Control offers much more than just approval workflows.

    • Approvals with E-Signatures. Reviewers need to use their email and password to confirm their identity (this is a compliance requirement). The e-signature does not work with SAML SSO yet.

The latest version of Comala Approvals features a significant update to how Approvals handles user activity. Specifically, Approvals now includes OAUTH user impersonation on all back-end operations. This resolves some existing issues and adds new functionality:

  • Eliminates most add-on user permission problems

  • Webhook transitions are now accurately ascribed to the user who triggered the event

  • Improved permissions validation

As this update includes changes to user permissions, it must be installed manually by the Confluence Administrator; the update will not roll out automatically. Click "update" in the Add-on manager and a pop-up will prompt you to accept and update; if you accept the update the new version of the add-on will be installed on your cloud instance instantly.
