AD-20625 Submission Manager > Add an organisation setting to make the deadline mandatory

Some organisations -- or even industries -- require approvals from specific people/groups within timeframes that allow work to be deployed quickly, while maintaining a high level of compliance. As far as sending approval requests to the correct people, admation already has you covered, and submitters were able to optionally set a deadline for approval.  

Approval Templates already had the ability to set a default deadline, but we have now added a configuration option for an organisation to specify that all approval requests need to have an approval deadline set.

If you feel that mandating the setting the of deadlines on approval requests would benefit your business, please talk to your Client Success Manager and they will be able to assist you with this.

Bug Fixes

AD-20745 Approval Submission > Outbound Checklists are not displayed under certain conditions 

User Groups can be configured in such a way that an Approval Submitter is required to fill in a Checklist before they can submit work to this group. 

If an approval submitter had selected the “Use these approvers next time” option, when they later came to submit another approval request then the approver list -- including the User Groups -- would be automatically specified, but the Checklist would not be presented. This issue has now been fixed.

AD-20770 Password verification emails were sent to SSO users upon account creation 

Fixed a bug where users who were set up as part of an SSO installation were still sent Account Verification emails when their accounts were created.
