We are now introducing SCORM override configuration settings which will give administrators the ability to override SCORM manifest settings per their system requirement.

Rule Engine Enhancement: Addition of Course Fields 

Description:  You can currently automate assignment of learning object via the rule engine. We have further enhanced the rule engine by providing the ability to create rule sets based on course specific fields to manage automatic enrollment. For example,  

1. If you want the ability to automatically enroll users/groups based on course completion 
2. Or enroll everyone who has completed a specific course(s) to a group (they then get access to documents, etc.) 
3. Or enroll everyone who completed a specific course (or combination of courses) in a specific time frame (like within the last year) gets enrolled in a course. 

All this is now possible via the new course fields on the rulesets. 

System & UI Changes: 

1. Three new fields are available under rule sets -> rules 

1. Course (This corresponds to course name) 
2. Course Status 
3. Course Completion Date

1. Info panel will be hidden initially, then when one of the course fields is selected it appears. The info panel stays shown if a course field is selected.  
2. Info panel reads ‘As a best practice, we recommend creating rules with course, course status, course completion date fields in conjunction, to avoid performance issues’ 

Introduction of ‘Purchases’ Widget on User Profile 

Description: Purchases widget is currently not available on user profile. With this release we are introducing a purchases widget on user profiles.

In addition to this, admins will also be able to manually add refund details against individual purchase and report on it. 

System & UI Changes:

Certification Transcript Report Enhancement   

Description: New columns have been added to the certification data set to report on credits earned by learners. This will help with the use case where a manager wants to run a report to see how an employee is doing towards earning their certification.  

Existing certification report does provide the status of each requirement (complete/incomplete) but it does not allow them to see how many credits have been earned so far. We have added two new columns – ‘Requirement Credits' and ‘Requirement Credits Earned’ to the list of columns on the user certification transcript report to enable the above use case. 

System & UI Changes: 

1. Highlighted in the screenshot below are two new columns - ‘Requirement Credits' and ‘Requirement Credits Earned’. 

Catalog & Course Information Report Enhancement   

Description: Currently, when you report on ILT module sessions, and choose to pick the date/time for the session, the catalog and course information report will display multiple line items for a single session if the session is scheduled of multiple time slots. We have introduced three new columns – session type, first session date/time and session end date/time which will allow you to choose if you want to pull all session time slots or just the first one in your report.  

System & UI Changes:

Email Notification Enhancement: Addition of Hours Option

1. A new ‘Hour(s)’ option is now available under email notification -> properties. You can choose to configure the notification to be send certain hours before or after the session. 

Quiz Module: Question Limit Enhancement

Instructor Led Training: ‘Add User’ to Waitlist 

Description: Administrators can now directly add users to an ILT session’s waitlist. In the system today, there is no provision for admin to add users directly to a waiting list other than by adding them to the enrolled list and then demoting them to the waiting list. Additionally, there is no way for admins to add learners to a waiting list once the roster is full other than having to log in to each learner account and enrolling them one by one.  

System & UI Changes: 

A new ‘Add User(s)' button is available under the waitlist. This option is visible to admin’s and users with ILT manager role and instructors other than the ones added in limited access instructor section for a session. The video below shows the new configuration. 

Instructor Led Training: Session Type Enhancement 

Description: Once an admin creates an ILT session of any type and saves the session, the type field will become non-editable. If you are required to change the type of session, then you can use the existing duplicate session functionality to clone the session and make the required changes. 

System & UI Changes: 

The video below takes you through the new functionality. 

Instructor Led Training: Private Session Setting 

Description: A new configuration setting is introduced at the ILT session which will provide admins with the ability to create ‘private’ sessions within an ILT module. This setting is introduced keeping in mind the situation where the trainer wants to conduct training sessions for specific audience and not open to everyone. 

System & UI Changes: 

1. A new config setting called ‘Private’ is available under ILT session -> Properties.  

2. The setting has two values – Yes or No, No being the default value. 

3. If configured as 'Yes', the ILT session would not be visible under catalog and enrollment to the session can only be managed by users who have access to the session roster. 

4. If configured as 'No', the session will function as it does today. 

5. ILT module level setting like ‘Standalone Enrollment’ will overwrite this setting. This means if at the ILT module level, standalone enrollment setting is set to yes and at the ILT session level, private configuration is set to yes then the module level setting will supersede and the session will be available for enrollment under catalog. 

6. Video for configuration setting 

7. Video showing what learner will see once the setting is turned on 

Custom Data Set: Permission Management 

Description: In the system today, if you have ad-hoc custom data sets there is no way to restrict the view of custom reports for certain users or groups. To overcome this issue, we are introducing a new custom reporting permission which will dynamically appear in reporting permissions if you have custom data sets for your portal. Using this permission, you can manage which users have access to these reports. 

System & UI Changes: 

1. Your Inquisiq LMS portal will dynamically show the custom report permission if you have custom reports for your organization. You can choose to configure a role’s access to custom reports. 

2. Once configured users with access to custom report will be able to see the custom report under reporting as shown below.

Bug Fixes 

1. A bug has been fixed for certificate functionality. An awarded certificate was not displaying properly when it had an apostrophe in its name. This has not been fixed. 
2. It was observed the ‘select supervisor’ action list available on supervisor tab of user profile was displaying the user for whom the supervisor is being selected as one of the available selection options. This has been corrected and the user for whom the supervisor is being selected in no longer available on the selection list. 
3. An issue had been identified with ‘auto-join rules’ under certification which has not been fixed and the functionality is working as expected. 
4. A bug had been reported where, the last login date was not getting updated for users when user registers and then completes a course in a single go. This has now been fixed and the last login date is getting updated in the system.
