Breaking Changes

On Questionnaire Export, a fix has been applied for the Section Id. It has been identified that on some instances, the Section GUID was duplicated as part of the Id e.g. “[GUID]_[GUID]_[repeat Id]”. This has been corrected to “[GUID]_[repeat Id]”.

For On Premise customers, Ideagen Healthcare Guardian now uses features of SQL only available in 2017 onwards.

If any entity has custom permissions, users with the “Performance Modeller” role will no longer have Author rights. These users will need to be added to the permission of the entity either directly or through a group. If an entity does not have custom permissions set, they will still have Author rights.

Important Changes

Sites using SSO only, will now see a splash screen with a Login button. The text on the button can include the name e.g. Azure AD, NHS Mail to help end users. This is configured by Ideagen Healthcare Guardian.

Incognito Access will in a future release have File Upload and Employee search prevented by default, but there is no forced change in this release. This release does support an Ideagen Healthcare Guardian configurable ability to:

• Prevent File attachments when opening in Incognito, but available via SSO or Logged In or the requestor is within a trusted IP range.
• Prevent Employee questions when opening in Incognito, but available via SSO or Logged In or the requestor is within a trusted IP range.

Questionnaire – Organisational Unit Questions

A new question type of Organisational Unit is available with the ability to select the level in the hierarchy. As with cascading List questions, creating multiple questions of this type for a sequence of levels will automatically cascade the available values, allowing end users to easily select the correct organisation units for each level.

Questionnaire – Link Object Name/Org Unit

A new question type of linked Object Name/Object Org Unit is available for Audit/Survey types. This allow conditionals to be configured for specific Audit locations.

Questionnaire – Calculated Working/Calendar Days

Two new question types are available that will calculate the number of working/calendar days between two dates in the Questionnaire.

Questionnaire – Move to Different Object.

Audits/Surveys can now be moved to a different object in Instance Admin.

Live Connect – Working Days

Ability to use Working days for calculations instead of just calendar days:

Questionnaire - Workflow Permissions

Buttons to move a questionnaire instance to another workflow stage can now be restricted to users inside of selected groups:

Questionnaire – Workflow buttons

Due to the inconsistency with button size/lengths due to the custom labels, buttons on the questionnaire are now full width. The access to the History has also been updated using the standard history icon used within Ideagen Healthcare Guardian

Other Enhancements

Trends – Cell Alignment options for Live Data

Cell alignment options are available for reports showing Live Data e.g. Questionnaires.

Scorecard – Comment Icon not filtering

The Scorecard now correctly filters the Comment Icon to the selected Subject.

Scorecard – Sparkline alignment

The sparkline in the Scorecard is now top aligned. Previously long cells e.g. comments, could cause the sparkline to move out of alignment with other cells.

CSV – Export from Widget

The download dialog now closes after the download has begun.

Admin - Employee filtering

Some of the employee filters included a space for initials causing the search to fail when entering full name. Using first or surname was unaffected. Full name search now works as expected.

Live Connect – First Word/Last Word optimisation

Improved performance of calculated fields using First/Last word on SQL and Questionnaire sources.
