Release notes for version 4.1.0.0

Version 4.1.0.0 of Xpand Portal introduces the following features and improvements:

Comment attachments

We are delighted to introduce enhanced commenting capabilities on Xpand Portal, now allowing front end users to easily attach images as well as other files directly to their comments. This feature streamlines communication by providing visual context and reducing the need for a separate attachments section on portal pages.
Added comment attachments can be displayed in a carousel format or as a list of files. You can preview image files in your browser, while document attachments will be automatically downloaded when you select them.

Comment synchronization between Xpand Portal and ERP system

Xpand Portal users can now exchange comments related to specific entities (such as orders, invoices, etc.) directly with ERP system users (e.g. Business Central) through comment synchronization between Xpand Portal and an ERP system. This new feature enhances communication between portal users and internal departments, improving transparency and efficiency in handling orders, invoices, and more.
An example of a new comment on an invoice on the portal:

• Improved consistency across the dictionary
• Revised wording in numerous dictionary items to improve clarity
• Corrected grammatical mistakes and typos
• Moved select hardcoded values to the dictionary to make them customizable and to provide the ability to translate them into different languages
