Spring Updates
There have been a lot of new features over the last two months so we have listed the majority here.
Reports
A Job Listings report is now available from the Jobs Admin page which shows you the number of new, existing and delisted vacancies per employer per month, for the selected employers.
On the report server you can now find the Import Log report showing you information about the University data - number of records imported etc.
Shop sales report now shows breakdown by payment method.
Election/Referendum Voting Profile report now lets you select from a dropdown list rather than having to enter the election ID number.
Emails
There is now the option to re-use text on an email your organisation has sent allowing you to check or resend your emails to a new set of recipients.
We have added a very snazzy new email template builder which we will be contacting you about separately as soon as the support documentation is finished.
Events
The Seating Plan can now be used with transaction numbers meaning you do not have to issue paper tickets to use this feature. For more information about this please contact us as we are currently rewriting the Events support documentation.
POS
You can now specify customisations to apply once per item no matter how many are bought.
Payment types are no longer limited to cash / cheque / credit card - you can specify as many as you like (e.g. club and society transfer, voucher etc)
Widgets
The photo widget now gives you the option to display a list of photos rather than just the gallery cover.
A new Voter Popup widget which allows you to display different messages to your logged users depending on whether they have started / completed voting (or not) in a specified election.
We have added a tag cloud widget that works with news tags. In the future we will expand this to news and events.
Memberships Admin
When you copy a group you can now specify where that group will be created and copy all its explicitly defined permissions.
Voting
The Polling Station application can now be used for referenda as well as elections.

And being released next week:
Surveys
Surveys can now be set as anonymous, there is an option to allow you to add in paper responses and we added to the question types available. We have also included links to the survey reports from the survey admin area and a CSS class to questions so it easier to style your surveys. Most importantly surveys have now been widgetized allowing you to add them to any page.
Voting
The referenda admin area has been rewritten to make it more intuitive, including allowing admins to directly edit the for and against motions without having to add themselves to the respective groups. The referenda widget now lets you hide links to the case for and against if you do not wish to use the system pages. In addition, both the election and referenda list widgets now have the 'include child organisations' option to bring them into line with the others.
