Multi-runbook dashboard (Release 3.67)
A minor enhancement has been made to the Multi Runbook Dashboard Lateness component, with % values now being shown alongside the existing Lateness value. This change allows users to see at a glance what % of runbooks falls into which category of lateness.
Runbook search for filtering (Release 3.66)
Customers can make use of the runbook search functionality to filter for specific runbooks by entering a list of comma-separated runbook IDs.
Multi/Single-Runbook Dashboards - Improved options for sending frequency (Release 3.65)
You can now send Multi- and Single-Runbook Dashboards on a more frequent basis such as hourly, every 30 minutes, or every 15 minutes.
CSV export: Optional change to export data (Release 3.65)
You can now exclude predecessor and successor task information, where the tasks referenced in those columns have been filtered out of the export.
Dynamic Fields (Release 3.65)
Customers now have the ability to reference a runbook’s text field in its tasks. For example, you can store information such as “client version = EU-1.87.01” at the runbook level and every time you need to reference this information, simply refer to that runbook field, instead of having to manually type it out each time.
Cutover User Interface Updates (Release 3.63)
