Summary of changes

Individual - Update employment status logic

The default employment statuses are now editable fields whether they are in use or not.  However, if the field is updated, as with the custom fields, it will update for every individual with that status throughout IAR.  Therefore, any overnight imports will need to be aligned with the new employment status value so that a change exception isn’t generated for the individuals on the exceptions page.

The ‘Employed by’ field has been made available for all employment statuses and is no longer mandatory on the ‘Fixed term’ option.

If any individuals currently have the ‘Fixed term’ employment status, then the value set in the ’Employed by' field will remain unchanged.  For all other employment statuses, a value can now be entered either manually or via the individual/overnight imports.

Key Indicator - allow data from multiple IAR instances in one data source

It is now possible to share key indicator source data across multiple IAR instances.

When sites are linked and a new key indicator, breach type or section is created they will be added to all the linked sites.

The names can be changed on any site and will not affect the name entered on the other sites.  However, if the key indicator, breach type or section are removed they WILL be removed from all sites.

When creating a breach record, it will only be visible on the site it is created on and will display the key indicator, breach section & types as it appears in the site it is created in.

Show SMFs on the assessment summary page

Senior manager functions will now appear on an individual’s assessment summary page.

Senior manager functions that are on draft and live SoRs will be listed.

Ireland – Update PR’s - remove 35, 36 & 37

Prescribed responsibilities 35, 36 & 37 have been removed. They will be removed automatically from draft SoRs. If they are on a live SoR, they will be removed when the SoR is amended and will not be available in the handover process.

Ireland - Update PCF-32

The name of PCF-32 has been updated from ‘Breach Managers in Ireland’ to ‘Branch Managers in Ireland’.  Any live statements of responsibilities that contain the function will display the old name until the statement of responsibilities has been amended in some way.

Ireland - Remove CBI only approval option

The ‘CBI only approval’ option has been removed when approving a PCF. The regulator type will default to ‘CBI approval’.

Jurisdictions other than Ireland will be unaffected by the change.

Change session expiry notification

The session expiry notification will now start to flash and turn red when a user has 1 hour remaining in the session and they are automatically logged off.

Logging out and back into IAR at any time will reset the user's session time back to 7 hours.
