New Features & Enhancements: • Decoupled Workflows: Introduced a Workflow Library that decouples approval flows from specific workspaces. This allows a single centralized workflow to be referenced across multiple workspaces, simplifying updates. • Automated Routing: Implemented a Routing Selector logic. This acts as a pre-router that automatically picks the appropriate workflow based on conditions like amount bands, vendor preference, or category before the artifact enters the approval engine. • Sourcing Qualification & PQQ Workflow: Added a Pre-Qualification Questionnaire (PQQ) layer to the sourcing process. This can be triggered before an RFQ is sent (to qualify a pool of vendors) or before an award is finalized (to qualify a specific chosen vendor). Includes the ability to verify answers and mark vendors as qualified/unqualified with a simple "Yes/No" logic, ensuring vendors meet specific capability or licensing requirements. • Direct Award & 6-Point Justification: Requesters can now specify a preferred vendor during the request stage to indicate a Direct Award intent. To support organizational governance, a 6-point justification form is now available. This requires the requester to select from predefined reasons (e.g., urgency, specialist capability) why a single-vendor selection is necessary. • Saved Approver Groups: Users can now create Approver Groups (e.g., "Finance Committee" or "Board of Directors"). When building or editing an approval level, selecting a group automatically expands it into the individual members. This allows for centralized maintenance of group membership without needing to update every individual workflow level. • Gated Technical & Commercial Evaluations: Established a formal "gate" for Sealed Bid RFPs. Commercial submissions are now strictly hidden until the technical evaluation is completed and approved. Only vendors who pass the technical evaluation will have their commercial bids revealed to the commercial committee. Scoring privacy is enforced: members cannot see scores from other committee members until the entire scoring process is finalized. • Technical Evaluation User Experience: Refined the interface for technical evaluators to prioritize the scoring activity, making it the primary call to action. Added a "Privacy Mode" setting that allows organizations to hide responses and scores of other evaluators from peers to ensure unbiased results. • Questionnaire Modification for E-Source Managers: E-source managers and assignees now have the flexibility to modify technical or PQQ questionnaires after a request has been created. This flexibility is available up until the RFQ is submitted to the first vendor, at which point the criteria are locked to ensure fairness. • Bulk Field Selection & Updates: Added bulk selection tools for Expense Accounts and Classifications during Request and Order creation. Users can now select multiple line items and apply a single value to all of them simultaneously, significantly reducing manual data entry. • Advanced Filtering in E-Source: Introduced advanced, shareable, and saveable filters for E-source list pages. Users can create custom views based on complex criteria (e.g., specific categories or statuses) that persist across sessions. General Improvements: • System Stability & Bug Fixes: Fixed multiple issues related to data consistency, UI responsiveness, and API performance. Improved application stability through extensive bug fixes across all modules.
