Product releases

We added a new page “Emails” for the activity settings, on My Page. There you can find notifications that will be sent within the course. Each notification has its own default text, which could be changed by a course administrator/editor according to their needs.

How to use:
– Go to the tab “Emails” on a course card on My Page, as a System Course Admin/Course Super Admin/Course Admin/Course Editor
– Select the notification that you want to change
– Edit information in the chosen notification
– Save your changes

If you need to change several notifications, you can do the changes first in all of them, and then you click “Save” to apply all of these changes. Warning: IF you made changes but you skipped the “Saving” step, those changes won’t be applied to your notifications.

Now back-office admin can generate a new report “Payment from unregistered” from the invoices tab, in the Back-office. This report reveals information about people who were registered for the certain course(s) and paid for it, but they have an “Unregistered/Not finished” status in the course. So you’ll be able to see these persons and courses in one report, by setting up the date range when you’re creating your report.

How to use:
1. Go to the back-office, as a back-office admin
2. Click on the “Invoice” tab
3. Click on the “Export” button and choose “Payment from unregistered” report
4. Set the dates “From” and “To”, in order to generate your report
5. Click on The “Export” button

Warning: The “Total amount to pay” and “Total amount paid” display the full cost of the invoice. That means if you got few people in the invoice you will see the full cost of the invoice, not the cost for the particular person.

We added a new block and storage for gathering information needed for the special course report generation. This report is obligatory for organizations in Norway that want to get funding for educational courses that they hold in their organization. The new block appears on the My Page, in the “Settings” tab of the course. This block will be available only for organizations that requested to enable this feature for them. The full functionality of the feature will be released in the next two sprints.

Added a possibility of download the course certificate before you publish it, for the course participants.

1. Go to My Page as a System Course Super Admin/Course Super Admin/Course Admin/Course Editor
2. Enter t0 the course
3. Click on the “Activity” tab
4. Check if the course certificate toggle is enabled (if it’s not, then enable it and fill in the information for the course certificate)
5. Click on the “Generate Certificate Course” Button
6. Open downloaded file the course certificate preview

We added the opportunity to generate manual invoices for the course participants. To create a manual invoice you need to go to My Page as course administrator, select the particular course, and then you can generate the manual invoice by selecting the participants for whom you want to generate an invoice and click the “Generate invoice for course” button(see the screen)”.
Warning: The invoices which were created manually, won’t be credited automatically, in the cases when the course participant was removed from the course. To credit those invoices administrator should go to the Back-office and credit those invoices manually

The feature was added for the invoices in the Back-Office. Now, when the Back-office admin is changing invoice status to “Paid” he/she must approve the payment sum in the pop-up form. Payment sum is the sum that was actually paid by the person, it could be equal, more or less compared to the sum of the invoice.

How to use:

1. Go to the Back-Office as a Super Admin/ Extended Super Admin
2. Click on the “Invoice” tab
3. Search and open the invoice that you needed
4. Change the invoice status into “Paid”
5. Enter payment date and sum
6. Save the changes
7. See the updated status of your invoice and paid the sum in it

Course admin with the write rights is able to make text to be bold, italic, underlined. It is also possible to add numbers and bullet lists for your certificate text.

We added the default logo for the course certificate. It could be changed for the organization, in the case when it will send their logo to the development team.

Every organization can send their text signature for the new format of the course certificate. This signature will be the same for all course certificates of this organization. 

We added the text reminder and the link to the activity categories, below the “Certificate text” field in the course settings of My page. That was done in order to inform the users about where we get these prefilled texts for the “Certificate text” field. The person who has the rights of  System Course Super Admin or Course Super Admin can click on the link and go to Activity categories settings, where he/she can change the default text for the category. Persons with other writing rights will not be able to change the text for categories, but they still will have the possibility to change the certificate text despite the prefilled values.
