Improved Features
This section shares information about updated features for Docupace that make life easier for you, our clients.
User Settings

Fixes
This section shares information about user interface issues that have been fixed by this release.
Confusing Confirm Action Message Replaced
Change: The message that appears when users attempt to navigate away from a work item without saving has been replaced with a new, more concise pop up. This fix is applied by default.
Benefit: The new message makes it easier to save work items and is less confusing.
Description: In older versions of Docupace, when a user attempts to navigate away from a work item without saving, they see a message with the option to select Cancel to continue working or select OK to continue navigating away without saving. This message caused confusion on what a user’s actions would result in. The message has been changed in newer versions to "Do you want to save data before leaving the page?" Users can choose Yes to save and leave, No to leave without saving, or Cancel to continue working on the page.
