The 4.26 release contains a number of changes, primarily relating to Milsoft’s WindMil v8.6.1 release and our MultiSpeakStaking integration. Additionally, v4.26 marks the first release of our implementation of Distribution Inspection on Partner Mobile. As such there are many improvements and changes relating to Distribution Inspection to support its use in a mobile environment.
Partner Complete Distribution Inspection on Desktop and Mobile now supports the use of synchronization to Partner Hosted Services using Partner Passport user authentication. This allows managers to identify and track work done by individual users and more directly assign tasks to those users in a secure environment.
