The September 2024 release of Alinity was deployed to Test environments on September 10th and will be deployed to Production environments on September 19th. A summary of the changes included in this release appear below.
Verification of the shared features of Alinity on each upgrade is taken care of by our development team. These are features appearing primarily in the Administrator Portal area of the system. Our team does not, however, verify the custom configured components on your Member Portal since requirements for these are often unique and cannot be addressed within the monthly upgrade period. Therefore, we recommend that you review and verify all member and public-facing features on your system before each upgrade. Please see our Verification Introduction article for further details and guides for testing.
This list is incomplete, please check back shortly.

New Features
Admin form change preservation | Admin
When an admin makes changes to a form via the “My Forms” utility, Alinity is automatically notified but finding the specific changes so that they can be saved for future deployments was a manual process. New code is now in place to automatically detect and highlight the specific changes made to ensure all are identified and brought back into our source control management. This will prevent possible overwrites of form changes.

Feature Improvements
By Contact Information query | Admin
“By contact information” will let you find organizations via their phone number, fax number, email address, and/or website. Each parameter supports partial matches which means you can find all 780- numbers, or websites under a shared domain.
By register query refinement | Admin
The “by register” base query now has an additional optional component to exclude users whose accounts have been deactivated. This can be useful in the context of Applicants, or potentially non-practicing members, under specific scenarios. The new default is to exclude deactivated accounts.
Bug Fixes
Improved “Groups” search page performance | Admin
We fixed an issue where, in order to return the count of members, the current-time had to be calculated twice per member in the group. Now the current time is only calculated once per group decreasing page load time. For example, page opening time decreased by 70% for a regulator with 100+ groups.
