1. Important changes

As of this release, users of onCourse are required to have an email address against their user record in the system. Users who do not will no longer be able to login until they have a valid email address against their user record.

We’ve also begun to remove some older portions of the application that are no longer in use, beginning with the AVETMISS 7 export window and the old Scripts window. We’ve also removed the feature that could allow you to freeze documents to a specific version.

2. Major features

2.1. Tag colours

The new monochrome theme and the tag colours features

We have implemented a colour picker that will allow you to assign a hex colour to any tag, which will help with visual identification of records in across certain parts of the application.

2.2. New font

A change of the font used throughout the user interface. The new Inter font is more readable and has some nice stylistic options for numbers which makes them clearer.

2.3. New user interface

The new user interface has now been rolled out to the following areas:

  • Certificates

  • Voucher products

  • Memberships

  • Products

  • Sales (product items)

  • Messages

  • Student Feedback

  • Applications

  • Invoices

  • Discounts

  • Payments In

2.4. Use of credit notes in online checkout

Students can now use any credit saved on their student records for online checkout. When they make a purchase from your website, provided they use the same first name, last name and email address as the record that has the credit saved, that credit will automatically be applied to the final total at checkout. Any credit not used will remain available on their account for future use.
