APM R20 - Release Notes

3/12/2020

 
R21-0108
  • Project Notes are now Project Notes and Stories
    If you follow Scrum or Scrumban, you can now use this panel screen in projects to define your user stories, functionalities, features. You can still use this also as notes of course. Sam does not make a real difference between the two. A Story is a Note after all. It is not a task although it might have tasks attached to it.
  • You can also archive Notes and Stories.
    This is useful if you have notes you want to discard or hide because they are no longer relevant. Or if you want to archive stories you want to retire from your backlog.
  • You should consider Project Notes / Stories as the backlog of the project. They are not tasks though. A task is something to do, assigned to somebody. A Note or Story is the context of a task or a group of tasks.

R21-0104
  • Happy New Year!
  • Project Notes, Logs and Emails have now a filter. You can select to "show only star" documents. Star is a way to highlight a note or log or email for others in your team. Depending on the project type, you may use "stars" to mark notes you are actively working on, or emails with very important information in them.
    If you have many more non star documents, the ability to filter and show only star documents can help you a lot. You will not miss any important documents with this feature.
  • New task category "Sooner".
    In addition to Soon, Rush and Later, you may now use "Sooner" for a task. This is mostly useful to sort tasks in your dashboard. Especially if you have many active tasks. Sam still schedules for you all your tasks. It does not treat Sooner any differently than Soon. But a "sooner task" will appear higher in the list, so you can focus on it first. Rush will still be treated with the highest priority by Sam scheduler.
  • New logo and icon, if you reinstall or refresh your browser only.

R20-1212
  • New shortcut link to login.
    The old link still works. However, it will slightly have a lower performance in network speed.
    We recommend using the new link. If you use the installed version of Sam through Chrome, you should uninstall it (delete the shortcut) and reinstall.
    To reinstall is simply a matter of login from the new link and click the install icon in the menu bar.

R20-1118
  • Big change for logins.. Simplified : no need to type PIN every time on a safe device (your personal, non shared device). There will only be a validation by email once a week.

R20-0923
  • Increased batch uploads to a maximum of 10 files at a time, instead of 5.
  • Simplified scheduling by removing need to forecast number of hours per task.
  • Improved: server performance, more reactive.

R20-0917
  • Fixed : In Projects views (for the team), jump to Log now correctly brings you to the project's log screen, instead of note.
  • Increased time out to upload or download files. This should help users with slow connections getting big files.

R20-0910
  • Fixed : In Projects views, the details (rich editor) was not refreshing consistently.

R20-0904
  • Sam remembers the last project and client you select in most screens. So when you jump from screen to screen it will try to show you data for the same client or project when applicable.
  • More servers fine tuning for performance.

R20-0825
  • Increased emails display area.
  • Downloads safety increased with extra protection against malware.
  • Auto detects new versions faster, will logout and ask you to login again after update.
  • Fixed Clients being displayed has always hidden by mistake
  • Fixed a wrong auto switch to first tab after selecting task or project in the left list.
  • Fixed auto stop timer when task is complete while a timer was running on it.

R20-0821
  • Increased emails display area.
  • Downloads safety increased with extra protection against malware.
  • Auto detects new versions faster, will logout and ask you to login again after update.

R20-0820
  • You can now upload up to 5 files at a time max (each max size is 2GB). When you need more uploads for your projects you could first zip your files, then upload the zip. Otherwise, upload them 5 at a time, no real limit on the total files (except storage in your subscription).
  • Removed preview of files when uploading. Replaced with simple easy to read file names.
  • Sam now checks upload sizes against expected size. In case of missing or corrupted internet communication, the upload is cancelled with error message. You should simply try again. We want to make sure what is in your cloud account is correct for others.
  • For your safety, emails no longer display remote images. Embedded images are still being displayed because they are safe.
  • Various UI streamlining.

R20-0816
  • Upgraded servers to support upcoming features. These should also improve performance of downloads and integrated email processing.
  • Fixed issue preventing saving memos or task details with long texts.
  • Inbox : we now show email attachments' size.
