2023.1 Prerelease Notes

We are excited to announce that the 2023.1 Release has been tentatively scheduled for the week ending February 17th!

This release will occur on or after February 15th.

These are the features and enhancements that may be included in the upcoming release. Please note that this list is subject to change.

The prerelease notes are essentially a summary, or abstract, of the release notes that will be published the day of deployment. If you read the prerelease notes and not the release notes, you will miss details regarding major features, as well as minor changes and defect fixes that cannot be published this far in advance of a release.

• These items are currently undergoing testing for quality assurance. If our QA team deems an item unfit, it will not be released. This means that we might not release everything on this list.

• To avoid surprising you, we will not release any major change that is not on this list.

• We will still publish full notes on the day of the release. Here’s what you’ll find in those that you may not see here:

  • A complete list of the features and updates that were actually released

  • Detailed instructions on how to use new features

  • Bug fixes and defect fixes

  • Minor tweaks to the UI that improve the user experience without substantially changing it

New

  • A user will be able to edit the Display Name field without changing the First Name, Last Name, and Credential fields.

Updated Module: Vendor Pulse Check

To access Vendor Pulse Check, your organization must subscribe to it, and your user profile must have the appropriate user role and permissions. If you have any questions, contact your Admin.

Vendor Pulse Check, Phase 2 is a major update that will deliver added benefits. This major release will:

• Increase flexibility by offering more options for building survey forms or questionnaires.

• Centralize and simplify the process of creating and managing survey campaigns with improved workflow design.

• Organize myriad contract surveys into campaigns for greater visibility and easier management.

• Provide a new role, Survey Moderator, to allow work to be distributed to others.

• Enhance reporting to give you the ability to include both questions and their responses in a single report.

• Make it easy to add and remove surveys, participants, reviewers, and moderators to in-flight campaigns.

• Provide an option at the campaign level to allow contracts' Responsible Parties to be designated as survey respondents.

• Allow all respondents, moderators, and initiators to view and manage their work via a central worklist.

Vendor Pulse Check will be available at the organization level as opposed to the tenant level, so that Pulse Check campaigns and workflows will be organization-specific. [339845]

Vendor Pulse Check Roles [327117]

A Survey Respondent can open, view, and modify their assigned pulse check survey form to evaluate the performance of the vendor/provider. 

A Survey Initiator can create and manage the campaigns to ensure the correct VPC survey forms are sent to the Survey Respondents. Note that this role does not have access to contract files. If a Survey Initiator needs access to contracts, assign them a Contract Moderator Role. [339875]

• Access Explore > Pulse Check.

• Set up new campaigns.

• Edit, delete and cancel campaigns.

• Cancel individual workflows.

• Survey Initiators permissions are assigned at the organization level.

  • Survey Initiators must be assigned contract permissions to access contracts (typically the Contract Moderator role).

  • Survey Initiators with access to a contract can modify the Pulse Check participants assigned to that contract.

  • Survey Initiators have read-only access to the vendor and provider directories.

A Survey Moderator has read-only access to any assigned VPC survey forms so they can monitor the results. (This role is new to this version of VPC.) [418662]

• The Survey Moderator must be assigned other contract permissions to access contract menu items.

• The Survey Moderator can comment on assigned workflows.

An Admin can access, set up, and manage campaigns and surveys, and perform tasks on behalf of the Survey Initiator.

For detailed information about Vendor Pulse Check roles, see the VPC Role Matrix.

On a Pulse Check form, an Admin/Super Admin can add the new Negative Response trigger to a custom field on the form. [418828]

The Negative Response trigger type is only available on Pulse Check forms.

Workflows on which the Negative Response trigger condition has been met will be flagged. [484531]

• If a workflow contains a response to a question that meets the negative response trigger condition, a flag will be added to the survey. [459731]

  • A warning icon will appear alongside the triggered field. Hovering over the icon will reveal a “Negative Response” tooltip.

  • A dismissible banner above the phase status tracker will state “Negative Response Requires Review.”

• The application will check for trigger conditions each time a survey is saved or submitted. If a survey respondent changes the response that fired the negative response trigger, then the flag will be removed from the survey and the triggering question. [578164]

• If the the survey is retracted and the user changes their response, the Negative Response flag will be reset.

• Users can report on flagged surveys using the Negative Response field under Reporting > Pulse Check.
