Hi @Josh Boston‚ - one quick question: right now, Group (or Subgroup) Business Leader is just a metadata field for now. There is no special access or permissions given to the person right?

Hi @Anthony Imgrund‚ yes you are correct. Right now the Business Leader on groups does not have special access or permissions on the group they are added. Here is more information on the Business Leader capability on groups including a demo video.

That's what I thought. One of my group admins interrupted the release notes like they were a group admin as well so just wanted to confirm. HAHAHA!

Thank you! :)

Question about the predecessor email notifications. It seems they changed during the release and now don't show the project name they're referencing. Is this something that will be changed?

The project name should be under the parent section.

The format of the "New Work Request" notifications is not good. They are difficult to use and decipher the information. The avatars are not displaying, even after manually clicking on "Download pictures" in the email.

We are using Outlook.

We are fixing the issue with Microsoft outlook. Temporarily you may start receiving the old UI template.

Hi Patrick, the main one is the task assignment one and it doesn't provide you any info about which project. We are using templates, so the tasks are very similar so the information they are looking for will be the name of the project. I also noticed the format for PC outlook and Mac outlook so not sure if the team tested on both platform before deploying it. I am attaching both format for your reference.

For the PC view, the icon for view was a weird blue. The icons are all aligned to the left too much.
