Improvements
Work-Based Learning Logbook Activity View Export (AX-14101)
When viewing a Logbook in the Work-Based Learning area, you are now able to export Logbook evidence with the information grouped by Activity. The export was previously only available when grouping the Logbook by Entries. The evidence for each Activity can also be individually exported or filtered by Activity Type. This provides more flexibility to the way logbook evidence can be utilised.
Online Assessment Previewing Improvements (AX-14490)
A Preview Button has been added to the top-right of the Online Assessment Management page. Users are now able to preview the Assessments if they have the ‘Assessment - View’ permission but not the ‘Assessment - Update’ permission. Previously, the 'Assessment - Update' permission was needed to access the Assessment Preview while authoring. This makes it possible for users who don't have access to author Assessments to still view the Assessments their Learners will be undertaking.
AX-14387 - The State & Suburb list for addresses has been updated to use the latest official AusPost data as of 10/05/2022.

A new field has been added to Classes to allow Additional Trainers to be specified. Trainer users logged in to aXcelerate will see all classes where they are assigned as the Default Trainer or as an Additional Trainer. This will help control and provide more flexibility for which users have access to particular classes within the system. This was a modification of the existing Assessors field that was available for accounts using Online Assessments. All Additional Trainers, as well as the Default Trainer, will be added as Assessors for any Online Assessments linked to the Class.
Credit Transfers for Multiple Workshop Enrolments (AX-13642)
Improvements have been made to Credit Transfers applied via the Workshop Booking page for multiple Accredited Workshop enrolments. When existing unit completions exist for the Learners being enrolled, there will be an option available to 'Apply Credit Transfers for each enrolment'. You can also view the details of existing Unit completions for the students being enrolled before applying them.

AX-14320 - When enrolling students into a Learning Plan, the system will now by default deselect modules if there is no E-learning content for the student to do for those modules either because they were granted CT for the related units or the E-learning or units were simply not included for that student's enrolment. Previously, modules were still selected if they contained an element of information content.
AX-14325 - Contact Categories have been moved into the main information section on the Contact View page. Previously this was in the Additional Information tab.
AX-14417 - We have made some improvements to the way user sessions are handled which should improve the speed and reliability of the system.

Improvements
AX-14485 - The 'Hide in Learner Portal' setting available for Portfolio Types will now also prevent any items uploaded with that type from appearing to Learner. Previously this would only prevent Learners from uploading new items for that Type, now the items will also be hidden in the Learner Portal. This allows you to add documents against a Learner's portfolio that Learners will not be able to see even when a Learner's Portfolio is made accessible to them.
AX-14298 - We have added the ability to view comments for tentative bookings with "unknown" details. Comments can be viewed by hovering over the Comment icon shown next to the bookings of this type that have comments provided.
AX-14310 - Learner names displayed on the attendance marking UI are now hyperlinked to their contact profile.
AX-14188 - 'Learner Email’ and ‘Learner Mobile Number’ have been added as dynamic fields to the Certificate Builder. This allows you to include the Mobile and Email of Learners on Certificates that are issued.
AX-14356 - The Report Builder charts have been improved to focus on the highest values when running a report with too many values to put on the chart. All the remaining values will be added together to form an "Other" value. Note that this only applies to a simple bar or pie chart and only when the chart value is a field that is summed.
AX-14291 - 'In-House Purchase Order Number' has been added as a new display field to the Workshops Warehoused Report.
AX-14090 - The design of the dashboard course card in the learner portal has been updated.
AX-14293 - Some minor visual updates have been made to the login screen.
AX-14287 - We have added the ability to page through all Statements in a Learner's SCORM E-Learning Activity Stream. Duration calculation has also been improved to show the statement durations for the current page as well as for the whole stream. This is only available at the learner level and not at the course level.
AX-14388 - The assessors select dropdown on the Bulk Update Assessment Details page has been improved to allow for more flexibility when searching on assessors that have a preferred name defined.
AX-14501 - Learners are now prevented from clicking on Learning Plan Elements when the corresponding “Show Assessments/Learning” setting is disabled.
AX-14010 - A new API endpoint 'course/instance/extratrainer' is now available to view, create, update and delete Workshop Extra trainer(s).
AX-14405 - Information about Workshop Close Days is now available to retrieve via the '/course/instance/detail' API endpoint. Some updates have also been made to the documentation for the '/course/instance/detail' & '/course/instance/ endpoints'
Fixes
AX-13897 - An issue has been resolved where when exporting an invoice belonging to an organisation that has been linked using the Xero Contacts tool, the contact name is appended with the contact ID despite it being unique in Xero.
AX-14041 - An issue has been resolved where the email subject set in a workflow task was being overridden by the subject set against the template.
AX-14331 - An issue has been resolved where trainers would not correctly appear for non-accredited workshops added via the calendar with the trainer competencies feature enabled.
AX-14364 - An issue has been resolved where adding a Contact from an Organisation profile was not working correctly.
AX-14436 - An issue has been resolved where the wrong page could rarely be shown when navigating in Online Assessments and Learning Plans.
AX-14461 - An issue has been resolved where a global system message could cause the Work-Based Learning navigation bar to become hidden.
AX-14473 - An issue has been resolved where the Learner Portal would display 'null' in certain date fields that had no value. A blank value is shown instead.
AX-14478 - An issue has been resolved in our API relax console that allowed users to specify complete URL paths. The console will now only call APIs within the domain you are using it in.
AX-14479 - An issue has been resolved where video content would not show after adding in a Learning Plan module overview.
AX-14504 - An issue has been resolved where the “View Placement” link on the class enrolment page would not take the user to view the Placement linked to that enrolment.

Work-Based Learning
Learner & Supervisor App Notifications (AX-13986)
Push notifications are now available for the Learner App and Supervisor App for events related to Work-based Learning. This will mean that users will be notified when important changes are made regarding placements they are associated with. This includes a Learner being notified when the status of their Placement is updated, or a Supervisor being notified when a Logbook Entry has been submitted that they need to review. This will be available by default for users of the Apps, but can be controlled using the 'Enable App Notifications' setting on the Learner Portal & App tab of the System Settings. Users will also be able to disable these notifications on their personal devices through their notification permissions.
AX-13649 - The Schedule in the Work-based Learning area has been updated to now better display activities that start before 7am or end after 10pm. By default, the calendar timeframe will show between 7am - 10pm, but will show a broader timeframe if visible events exist outside of that time range.
AX-14353 - The Work-based Learning admin area has been made more responsive to user permissions. This will affect users who have Work-based Learning view permissions, but not permission to add, edit or delete. Anywhere where there are options to create new system objects (such as new Placements, Activities, and Presets) the option will be unavailable if users do not have the add permission. This works similarly for options to edit and delete available in the Work-Based Learning interface.
AX-14354 - An issue has been resolved where users were unable to select a trainer when creating placement from the class enrolment page.
AX-14296 - An issue has been resolved where Work-Based Learning template fields did not get populated based on Workflow Placement triggers. Those that have already set up automation tasks for placement events will need to save them again in order for the fields to be populated as intended.
Improvements
SVTS Unit Update Warnings (AX-14240)
We have added a validation check to the Set all Competency Statuses and Student Unit Summary pages for Victorian classes to present a warning icon when a unit is updated from NYS or NR to an active/completed outcome more than 60 days from the unit start date.
AX-13034 - We have updated both the import Moodle user and the Moodle completions feature to attempt to read the enrolment date from Moodle and set this date as the Booking status log for the learner. The status log will have a comment if set automatically in this way. Note that the Enrolment date in aXcelerate will not be updated, this will continue to be the date the enrolment was imported or added to the aXcelerate SMS. Only the booking status log entry date may change.
AX-12814 - The Model Answer is no longer shown when marking Marking Criteria question types in Online Assessments.
AX-14063 - We have updated the focus state style for fields on the Contact View page to help users identify the field they are modifying.
AX-14085 - We have added an option to restore a certificate file if it can no longer be found. This is to help resolve rare intermittent issues where a file can't be found. When the error is now shown to say the file is missing, a link is now available to restore the file.
AX-14158 - The Invoice Line Items report now has a filter for contact categories that are applied to the invoice contact.
AX-14164 - A new system setting has been added to the RTO and VET settings to “Automatically create Workshop session”. If enabled, when creating a Workshop that spans a single day, a complex date will also be created for the same date and time. Complex dates are needed to mark workshop attendance, so this will now make it easier to set up a single-day workshop that requires attendance marking.
AX-14227 - You can now group Workshop Bookings reports by 'Key Student Status Enter By' which refers to the contact who entered the booking into aXcelerate.
AX-14278 - We have improved the Learner Portal Calendar and Virtual Classroom notifications to account for the Timezone set in the Account Settings.
AX-14318 - The Bulk Update Assessment Details page now has the ability to show all assessments without displaying any student information via the new 'Show All Assessments' button located beneath the 'Find Learner' dropdown. This allows for all enrolments under all assessments of the class to be updated in bulk via the new check-all checkbox in the left-hand column of the table. Additionally, when selecting a single student, all assessment columns will be displayed.
AX-14288 - A new certificate field for 'All Workshop Dates List' has been added to workshop certificate types. This will display a list of all training dates set up against the workshop and will use either complex dates or a simple date range and output a line for each date.
AX-14277 - The [Unit Assessment Methods] template field will now display the assessment alias where no abbreviation has been supplied, or the original label if neither alias nor abbreviation is present.
Fixes
AX-14316 - An issue has been resolved where some clients that have integrated with our login, were not seeing the user properly redirected if they hit it when logged into aXcelerate.
AX-14412 - An issue has been resolved where, due to site Referrer Policy settings, the Ezypay payment method form would not correctly complete enrolment. This issue did not affect the aXcelerate system, only external websites where the Referrer Policy was explicitly set to "no-referrer".
AX-14341 - An issue has been resolved where the resume point is not retained when the user navigates back to the assessment in Learner Portal.
AX-14034 - An issue has been resolved where the announcements for cancelled enrolments were being shown in the Learner Portal.
AX-14289 - An issue has been resolved where contacts could appear multiple times in the email content when performing a mailout.
AX-14300 - System messages have been excluded from being displayed on areas where the information is able to be printed. This includes the print attendance area and the print view of Online Assessments.
AX-14319 - An issue has been resolved where when enrolling a contact in a Qualification, the contract and schedule did not carry over to the final confirmation screen.
AX-14324 - We have moved the System Action migration message to the top of the page to reduce interference with other areas within the system.
AX-14374 - An issue has been resolved where deactivated users would cause errors to be thrown if they had been assigned as assessors for Online Assessments.
AX-14389 - An issue has been resolved on the Bulk Update Assessments page where page controls would be shown that should have been hidden.
AX-14419 - An issue has been resolved in the Learner Portal where when opening a workshop, navigating back to the home page, then opening the class again would disable any Learning Plan features associated with that workshop.
AX-14432 - An issue has been resolved where the time of workshops and virtual classrooms displayed to students in the Learner Portal was being calculated incorrectly. The time will now be displayed based on the user's local time in relation to the timezone determined in the account settings.

Fixes
- An issue has been resolved where for bulk-duplicated workshops, the “Workshop Created By” reporting fields reflected the user who created the original workshop rather than the one who performed the bulk-duplication. The user captured in the workshop log is always an accurate reflection of the system user responsible for creating the workshop.
- When bulk-creating accredited workshops, the “Owner” of the auto-generated accredited classes will now be set at the “Workshop Owner” for public workshops and will continue to be set as the user who created the workshops for other workshop types.
AX-14239 - An issue has been resolved where certain .m4a files could not be uploaded as an assessment submission.
AX-14271 - An issue has been resolved where units linked to a new version of an Assessment in a Learning Plan would not be automatically commenced/completed in some cases.
AX-14299 - An issue has been resolved where adding multiple Contact notes would cause the "Add Note" button to instead say "Update Note" under certain instances.
AX-14344 - An issue has been resolved where Virtual Classroom Recordings would be hidden if all workshop sessions had finished but the workshop end date had not passed.

In-house Workshop Invoice Template Improvements (AX-13992)
A new template link has been added to in-house workshops next to each invoice. This lets users create templates that have access to both workshop-related and invoice-related fields together to allow for more complex templates to be created. This also means that invoice templates can be issued which include the list of Workshop participants as well as the appropriate financial information.
Work-based Learning in the Trainer Portal (AX-13982)
Work Placements are now accessible via the Trainer Portal for Trainer users who have been given Work Placement user permissions in accounts where the Work-based Learning feature is enabled. Trainers with access will be able to view this area from the Courses menu with the list of Placements being filtered down to those that the Trainer has been assigned to by default. Other areas of the Work-based Learning area (Acitivities, Presets, and Host Employers) are not available for Trainers as these are intended for use by Administrators.
Other Improvements
AX-13559 - The price for Finance Items now supports three decimal numbers which should help improve GST calculations.
AX-14084 - Improvements have been made to the error message shown when deleting an organisation linked to a Host Employer in the Work-based Learning area. The Delete Host Employer button has also been disabled when there are placements linked to the Host Employer and it cannot be deleted. The Host Employer can still be deactivated instead.

Work-based Learning
View Logbook Entries by Activity (AX-13404)
When viewing a Learner's Logbook, you are now able to group evidence by Activity instead of the default view by Entry. Grouping by Activity helps to give insight into what tasks Learners are participating in overall while working with their host employer.
AX-13666 - When viewing media evidence recorded in a Logbook Entry, you can now use the arrow keys to cycle between each file and click the escape key to close the media viewer.
AX-13672 - Logbook Entries will now show a thumbnail image when there is at least one image uploaded against the log entry. This will also be shown in the list of entries displayed in the Learner and Supervisor Apps.
AX-13949 - Qualification name is now displayed below the Learner's name in the header of the placement details page.
AX-13987 - A template field has been added for 'Work-Based Learning Placement Trainer'.
AX-13945 - An issue has been resolved where opening Logbook Filters would cause the first entry in the list to become selected.
AX-13950 - An issue has been resolved where the filters on the Placements tab could become out-of-sync when swapping between tabs.
Work-based Learning was released into open Beta for all Turbo accounts late last year. We are continuing to gather feedback and make improvements to make the feature the best it can be.
In addition to general improvements and fixes, we're currently working on:
- Allowing Learners to record time and evidence against each activity within a Logbook Entry
- Making Work-based Learning more accessible to Trainers
We're also hosting a Work-based Learning Webinar on February 2nd to talk about the feature, answer questions from the community and gather feedback which you can sign up for here.

Other Improvements
AX-14015 - A new Assessment Type setting has been added to control Automatic Question Numbering. When the setting is disabled, only the Question Title will be shown, if it exists.
AX-13511 -The Contact Street Address State and Postal Address State are now available as filters in most reports.
AX-13976 - We have updated the Assessment area menu to direct to the new Learning Plans page.
AX-13696 - We have updated the Skills TAS validation rules for ANZSIC and ANZSCO fields to allow for blank values when a learner is unemployed.
AX-13895 - Improvements have been made to duplicate contact detection. Contact duplicate detection now matches on the email address or date of birth of a contact where their given name and surname are the same. A warning has also been added to the contact page for when other active contacts are detected with the same USI.
AX-13960 -When an Accredited Workshop instance is created assigned to a Partner, the linked class will also now be assigned to the Partner.
AX-13977 - Recognised Revenue now supports finance models so the calculation for the "Total value of Enrolment" field will consider "per unit or "per hour" rules.
AX-13994 - The list of NCVER Validation Collections is now ordered by the latest year and period.
AX-13878 - The Assessment Overview will now only be shown on launch and will not be displayed when resuming an Assessment.
AX-13751 - New finance endpoints are now available via our API:
- /accounting/invoice/. - Get an array of invoices for an account (GET). Or create a new invoice (POST).
- /accounting/invoice/:invoiceID - Get the details of an invoice / Update an invoice
- /accounting/creditnote/ - Get an array of credit notes for an account (GET). Or create a new credit note (POST).
- /accounting/creditnote/:creditnoteID - Get the details of a credit note / Update a credit note
- /accounting/catalogueitem/ - Get an array of catalogue items for a account (GET). Or create a new catalogue item (POST).
- /accounting/catalogueitem/:itemID - Get the details of a catalogue items (GET). Or update details of a catalogue item (PUT).
Fixes
AX-12739 - An issue has been resolved where E-Learning completions would not set a class enrolment as complete when the 'E-Learning Completion Updates Subject' setting was enabled.
AX-13704 -We have removed the "E-Learning Completion Updates Subject Start Date" setting. This setting was problematic and caused more issues than it solved - working for only a very niche use case. Going forward, if you would like for E-learning launches to automatically update unit start dates, this functionality is available as part of commencement, not completion.
AX-13844 - An issue has been resolved where users would be unable to upload a profile picture in the Learner Portal on some mobile devices.
AX-13855 -An issue has been resolved where it was possible for users to be charged twice for the same invoice payment by credit card using EzyPay.
AX-13889 -An issue has been resolved where a Workshop with complex dates and multiple venues would overflow the Workshop Overview section in the Learner Portal.
AX-13923 -An issue has been resolved where attempting to update a Workshop type could unintentionally truncate the name.
AX-13959 - An issue has been resolved with the manual contract reconciliation tool where certain combinations of schedule outcome rules and unit enrolment attended hours against withdrawn units would cause an error when attempting to generate the invoice.
AX-13972 - When multiple System Message modals are shown on a page, the selection made for the 'Do Not Show' field will now be applied to each subsequent message when cycling through them.
AX-14019 -We have altered the system behavior when launching/commencing E-Learning from our Learner Portal, especially SCORM packages. Previously, when a student launched E-Learning, this would trigger the system to set the "Access Start Date" of the learner to the moment of launch - if that date was blank. For learners outside the client timezone, this could have the effect of removing their access. Access Start should reflect when the student has access, not the commencement date. There is a commencement log that is also entered on launch that should be used as the commencement date for the student.
AX-14022 - The Base Type of an Assessment Type can no longer be changed after it has been created. This is to prevent potential issues where invalid question types could be selected in an assessment - for example, non-auto-markable question types in a Lesson.
AX-14025 - An issue has been resolved where switching between Hotspot questions in an Online Assessment could cause the question descriptions to be duplicated.
AX-14027 - An issue has been resolved where using the Learning Module view mode in the class matrix on a module that contains Assessments could result in an error.
AX-14032 - An issue has been resolved where accessing assessments in the Learner Portal produced an Error status of 500.
AX-14035 -An issue has been resolved where assessment items appeared out of order under specific conditions on the assessment mapping page
AX-14051 - An issue has been resolved where in some instances creating a 'Multi-Session' workshop would cause an error.

You are now able to create a new version of an assessment to allow you to have full editing control and make substantial changes to published Assessments without needing to create a new one. When a new assessment version is published, any In Progress, Satisfactory or Unsatisfactory enrolments in the assessment will remain on the previous version. Any Not Started enrolments will start on the latest version of the Assessment with their first attempt.
This allows you to easily create and deploy new versions of your Assessments when training packages change as well as streamline compliance by recording what’s changed in the version history.
Preview Learning Plans (AX-13319)
Learning Plans can now be previewed to inspect how a student would see the Plan in the Learner Portal. All elements in the preview will appear as if they were unlocked. When in this Preview Mode, elements can be added but not removed or edited.
Online Assessment Info Block Component (AX-13677)
A pre-made Info Block component can now be inserted into Online Assessment questions. This can be accessed by right-clicking within the editor to open the Context Menu.
Online Assessment & Learning Plan Approval (AX-13813)
Both Online Assessments and Learning Plans now both have a new 'Publish' permission that prevents non-authorised users from being able to publish them. When users without the permission attempt to publish an Online Assessment Task or Learning Plan, it will be set to Pending Approval until a user with permission approves the Assessment/Learning Plan and publishes it. Any users or roles that have the 'Edit' permission for Assessments or Learning Plans will have the publish permission when this change is released.
Hiding Portfolio Types in the Learner Portal (AX-13885)
A new setting has been added to Contact Portfolio Types to 'Hide in Learner Portal' which will prevent Learners from being able to view these Portfolio Types in the Portfolio section of the Learner Portal.
