This update provides a summary of ARMATURE Fabric’s evolution through the second quarter of 2019.  Although our team continues to release version updates every 2-3 weeks,  we will be providing official release notes shortly after the end of each quarter.  


In order to experience the full benefits of the ARMATURE Fabric Platform, we recommend that our customers update their software following each quarterly release.  If you have specific requests or wish to see post-release updates, please contact your project/account manager for more details. 


April

In the month of April, our team focused on making continuous improvements to our Accreditation & 

Certification functions including enhancing system configurability, improving the re-usability of artifacts 

(documents, emails), and introducing a new feature called “Events”.  These improvements were released 

across two version updates including: 


Version 1.0.19098.4 – released on April 9th, 2019

April updates include the following additions / modifications:

permissions).

between initial application and renewal)

manage data at the “Site” or “Location” levels) 


Allow “Addresses” to be included within a certification record (without obtaining their own certification) 


Events

product release
