Release 2.50 includes minor changes and fixes for the core product, Space & Relocations, and Dashboards & Reporting.

General Changes

Report Builder

Enhancement - A timetable can now be defined in Report Builder. This allows a date or time range (e.g. May 1 - May 31) to be defined and the level of time visible within that range (e.g. see a row for every day in the range or see a row for every hour in the date range). This streamline viewing daily or hourly reports over a date span.

Reporting Dashboards

Enhancement - Flexi desks on a Dashboards floorplan report can now be shown as triangles instead of dots.

Enhancement - The legend of a floorplan can now be hidden when building a report. A Report Designer can now choose to build a table to describe the contents of a report, instead of using the built-in legend feature.

Enhancement - The Feedback form can be disabled or enabled in Serraview Workplace by updating the "Enable Feedback Form" check box on the Configuration > Setup > Workplace form.

Smart Environments

Smart Environment (SVLive, Locator, Locator Mobile (web) and associated technology) releases are generally not aligned with the monthly releases, however for May 2017 they are being rolled out together. Due to the large number of changes this month, we have separated the Smart Environments notes out into their own page. 

Notable Changes and New Features

MLS (v1.13.0) - Support for SNMP v3

Support for SNMP v3 has been added, allowing for greater security controls. The implementation of SNMP v3 will support the following privacy protocols:

  • AES-128
  • CBC_DES

And the following Auth protocols:

  • HMAC-MD5-96
  • HMAC-SHA-96

It is important to note that we only support the standard protocols listed above. Non-standard protocols that aren't listed above are not supported.
