Version:
2021.01
---------------------------------------------
Better user experience / Reducing the burden
---------------------------------------------
Improved - Changed the text on the Interoperability uploader page to inform users when it will be turned off. Research organisations can upload publication information for awards on behalf of researchers at their organisation. This function will be turned off between February 12th and March 11th 2021.
Improved - Location search in collaborations - form for Collaborations & Partnerships now appears inline, within the form. When a researcher adding a Collaborations and Partnerships entry adds a partner, the form appears in-line on the form and not as a separate window..
Improved - Publications API search look up - UI set up to accept unique ID. When researchers adding a publication entry with a publication source ID, or adding manually, have entered text into the search box and results are returned, they are able to see the publication source ID as a clickable link in the listing.
Improved - Amended Research Databases & Models section of the common question set to include the term 'Datasets' When a researcher entering information about a Research Databases & Models entry sees reference to this in the platform or in guidance text, we have added the term 'Datasets.'
Areas of the platform where this will change:
- Name of the section
- Section guidance text
- Question text
- Question guidance text
- Note that these were label changes only
Improved - Location search API search look ups are aligned to behave in the same way when the user adds manually. The 3 location searches for Next destinations, Collaborations & Partnerships and within Further Funding manual entry behave in the same way when the user adds the location manually.
Improved - Word change in the Engagement Activities (STFC) Additional Question. A Researcher with Awards at STFC that have the Engagement Activities Additional Question is\ filling in the question (TBC), they will see 'Perc high rating":"% of audience rating your resource 4 or more out of 5'
Improved - Made sure the dates for 2021 have been added into the platform everywhere necessary.
Improved - Added platform specific guidance text for National Biofilms Innovation Centre (NBIC).
Improved - Updated Primary Investigators user guides for the 2021 submission period. Content changes will be applied to the pages below:

Help & Support
Fixed - Primary Investigators were seeing an error message/page when they attempted to search their outcomes. Now, any outcomes that match the search criteria entered are returned as expected.
Fixed - Fixed issue with duplicate awards in bulk actions. Using The 'select all' option to bulk update awards now works as expected. The bulk action dropdown was sending duplicate awards in the payload. This was then causing the queued bulk action to fail.
Fixed - Country filter is working as expected when option used is in format "state(country). Fixed issue happening when a Primary Investigator was adding a new Spin Out entry and searched using the search block, and then filter the results list using the Country column, the results list would be filtered, but no Results were returned when option used was in the format "state (country)".
Fixed - Location search working as expected. Location search is no longer returning deprecated locations. Work was recently done on the locations search, and as a result, deprecated locations were being returned. This has been fixed.
