New Features

Report Generator v1

First implementation of the report generator interface for administrators to create templates for users to run. This will be improved and added to over time.

To provide system administrators with an interface to create their own report templates which can then be run by certain users at the click of a button. This first implementation will deal with just reports on events with reports across users and documents to follow later.

Versioning of Event Types

To version control all event types so that retiring, creating a new version and publishing/updating the version is all done within a single event type rather than having to create a completely separate one.

Each Event Type has the ability to be versioned with details of the version kept within the event types themselves. The current version number and whether it is currently in a published or draft state is clearly displayed.

Creating a new version keeps the previous one published and creates a new draft. There can be only one draft version at any one time. Publishing a new version automatically retires the previous version, and versions can also be retired at any point without requiring a new draft to be created. Creating a new version will retain all the information from the previous version which can then be edited rather than having to enter large parts of the event again.

Each event type contains an audit log which shows: version details, dates of actions, authors of actions.

Some elements of event types are kept changeable when the event type is in a published state: colours, tags, select default view.

For an end user this then means that searching by event type only displays to the user the name of the current version of that event. When performing the search we return events that match every current and historic version of that event type. Individual events are labelled within the event view with their version number and the original name of the event so that no data is lost.
