We are thrilled to announce the release of Capacitor V6.2.0, which includes new features and critical performance updates to enhance your user experience. This version focuses on improving the functionality of the Time Log, Link Account, and Activity modules, as well as optimising the overall performance of the system.

Here’s what’s new in this release:

Feature Enhancements

1. Node Version Update:
   • The frontend CICD pipeline now uses an updated node version, ensuring smoother and more efficient deployments.
2. [Authentication] “Remember Me” Feature:
   • A new “Remember Me” option with Refresh Token support is now available, allowing users to stay logged in for up to 30 days for an uninterrupted experience.
3. [Link Account] Enhancements:
   • Restrict users from linking the same entity account multiple times to avoid redundancy.
   • Email Enforcement: Linking and unlinking accounts must now use the company email, enhancing security.
4. [Time Log] Improvements:
   • Added a “Leave Detail” dropdown action for better visibility of leave days.
     
   • Introduced a “Time Log Detail” dropdown to allow clearer tracking of time logs.
     
   • New “Action” column added to staff reports for improved reporting.
   • Added an “Apply” Button for date range selection to improve user experience, making filtering easier and faster.
5. [Activity] Date Range Selection:
   • An “Apply” Button has been added to the date range selection feature to enhance the user experience, similar to the Time Log module.
6. [Performance] API Optimization:
   • The /v2/users/manager?managerId= API has been refactored to only return necessary data, improving performance and reducing load times.
7. [Alerts] Enhanced User Experience
   • Sidebar Hidden for Notifications and Alerts in Mobile View: To streamline the mobile interface, we’ve hidden notifications and alerts from the sidebar. This allows users to enjoy a cleaner experience. The full alerts and notifications remain accessible through the designated alert pages.
   • Green Dot for Unseen Alerts: In the new update, a green dot will appear next to any unseen alerts, helping users quickly identify which notifications require attention without needing to open the full alert list.
     
8. [Notifications] Redirection Enhancements for HR System
   • HR System Pop-Up for Notifications:
     We’ve made it easier for HR to act on notifications by introducing redirection pop-ups in the HR system. These notifications now provide key updates and prompt actions for admins and managers, such as:
     • Performance Review Reminder: “[Employee Name] is due for a performance review within 1 week. You can start arranging the performance review process.”
     • Probation Period Completion: “[Employee Name] has successfully completed their probation period. Please update the employee’s status accordingly.”
9. [Quest Management Module] Compensation Leave Redemption and UI Update
   • Adjustment of Compensation Leave Price: Admins can now adjust the compensation leave price in the reward settings, giving more flexibility in setting the value of leave.
   • Activation of Compensation Leave Setting: A new toggle allows admins to activate or deactivate the compensation leave setting, ensuring full control over when this feature is available to employees.
     

Bug Fixes

1. [Link Account] Unlinking Issue:
   • Resolved a bug where some accounts couldn’t be unlinked successfully.
2. [Performance] Refresh Time:
   • Fixed an issue where unknown code was causing longer-than-expected refresh times, ensuring quicker updates.
3. [Time Tracker] UI Fix:
   • Corrected the display of the arrow next to “Projects Assigned” in the Time Tracker for a better user interface.
4. [Quest Management] UI Fix:
   • The UI for tooltips and toggle buttons has been revamped to ensure smoother interactions and better visibility across different devices.

As always, we are committed to improving your experience with Capacitor, and we believe these updates will contribute to a more seamless and productive workflow. Your feedback is invaluable to us, so please continue sharing your thoughts as we work toward future improvements.
