CCOM X Release 4 - 2026

📦 APRIL 2026

Clarity. Control. Fewer Surprises.

This month’s release focuses on visibility and control — making it easier to understand what’s been read, what requires attention, and who is responsible. We’ve added long‑requested document tracking features, improved notifications and filtering, and fixed several issues that got in the way of smooth daily work.


🌟 New Features

📘 Document Read Receipts – Full Visibility

We’ve significantly expanded read receipt functionality across the system.

What’s new:

  • Dashboard widget showing document read receipts at a glance
  • Read Receipt views for both individual users and admins
  • Read Receipts on user profiles, giving clear insight into document compliance
  • Admin settings for read receipt behavior and visibility
  • Clear definition of who is required to confirm reading a document

Why it matters:
No more guessing who has (or hasn’t) read critical documents. This closes an important loop between publishing and compliance.



🔔 Improved Notifications for Documents

To support the new read receipt functionality, we’ve also added:

  • Document read receipt notifications, ensuring follow‑up doesn’t rely on memory alone

Simple, clear nudges — right when they’re needed.


✍🏻 Revision History - Improved

You now have better control over changes made to documents. The revision history has been reintroduced, with improved tracking of changes made throughout the document’s lifecycle.



📑 Better Identification of Reports

Reports are now easier to identify and search, especially in larger datasets.

Improvements:

  • Report ID is now included in search
  • Report ID can be copied, making follow‑ups and references faster and less error‑prone

Small changes, big usability win.


🧾 Automatic PO Emails – CC the Approver

Purchase Order emails sent to suppliers can now automatically CC the approver, improving transparency and reducing manual follow‑up.


📘 Workflow Improvements

🎯 Smarter Filtering Across the System

Filtering continues to improve across modules:

  • Filtering by job position groups and roles is now supported in "Responsible" column
  • Department selection and identification has been clarified in reports and printouts

Better filters mean faster access to the information you actually need.



📄 Clearer Responsibility Handling

We’ve improved how responsible roles are handled across multiple modules:

  • Certificates
  • Medicine
  • Reports

Fewer disappearances, clearer ownership, less confusion.


⚙️ Under the Hood – Performance & Stability

Some of the biggest work this month isn’t visible — but you’ll feel it:

  • Large‑scale Angular Signals refactor across most of the application
  • Background improvements and refactoring to improve stability and throughput

This lays the groundwork for faster, more predictable behavior going forward.


🐞 Bug Fixes & Improvements

📄 Documents

  • Fixed wrong revision dates shown in document indexes
  • Prevented removal of revision dates without editing the document
  • Corrected inconsistent document naming
  • Fixed issue where documents from all departments appeared identical in dropdowns

⚓ Shift & Manning (ABSM)

  • Fixed an issue allowing activities to be confirmed on top of already confirmed activities, which caused problems with sign‑off and Work Schedules

👤 Users & Admin

  • Fixed error 500 when sorting job areas by name
  • Prevented tagging of deleted or paused users in comments
  • Fixed multiple issues with sorting and searching in competence lists

📋 Reports & Risk Assessment

  • Fixed issues where roles disappeared after performing Risk Assessments
  • Restored ability to change row order in Risk Assessments

📨 Notifications & Emails

  • Fixed wrong year in report IDs used in automated emails
  • Prevented emails from being sent to deleted supplier contacts

✅ General UI & Text

  • Corrected minor text issues (including capitalization of “Pending”)
  • Fixed indicator behavior for “Perform Task”
  • Resolved errors triggered by “All Departments” selections

✅ Wrapping Up

This release is about trust — trusting the system to show the right information, notify the right people, and behave predictably in everyday work.

As always, thank you for the feedback. Keep it coming — it directly shapes what we build next.
