5. IMPROVED RULE MANAGEMENT

In previous versions 4.44 and 4.49 we introduced new, improved UI for creating and editing rules set by users across the app. After some time and feedback from our users we went on further to simply the workflow of copy-pasting IDs for vast rules.

Two ways of managing items inside rules – 1) manual selection and search using a dual list; 2) inserting copied list of IDs – are now separated. Using a copy-paste icon you can switch between the two modes and combine them. Dual lists including search by item name or ID remain unchanged while the field for pasting multiple IDs has improved validation. It helps to identify items that are not found and ignores duplicates. After inserting a copied list, a validation dialogue appears showing the number of items that are not found or duplicate. You can copy the list of items not found using a “Copy list” button.
