 +  * The 'Node topology - Add subnets’ form now supports multiselect on ports AND subnets allowing for quick assignment of a series of subnets to a range of ports on a device, including connected interfaces when topology exist.
 +  * The ‘Build’ main-form ‘search’ function has been extended and optimized.
 +  * Password-sensitive fields in the database are now stored encrypted in the database. Includes customer-based key-management and customizable field-selection. Encryption uses AES256 algorithm. See [[guides:reference:database:encryption|Encryption]]
 +  * Support of customizable ‘Change-id’ requirements in jobs. See [[guides:reference:jobs:job_configuration|Job Configuration]]
 +  * Support of Job approvals. Each job-type can be assigned requirements on job-approvals before being executed. The approval requirements can be defined in high detail using thresholding, limiting and authorisation level parameters. Jobs requiring approval are listed as ‘pending’. See [[guides:reference:jobs:job_configuration|Job Configuration]]
 +  * Reworked ‘Scheduled jobs’ tool to support Job filtering (change-id, status, jobs-id, user), manipulation (cancel, suspend, resume, now) and approvals (approve, reject, comment). See [[menu:operate:job_status:scheduled_jobs|Scheduled jobs]]
 +  * Job notifications. Email notifications can be sent automatically for jobs pending approval (sent to user-group email-list of job owner). Also notifications can be issued for approval rejections, job cancellations or expiry (sent to owner).
 +  * New customizable tool-setup XML file where scheduler queue and per-job-type configurations can be made (approvals, notifications, auditors, change-id validations)

 +  * Extended job-tools with text-box entry for 'SiteCode' values
 +  * Subnet name and Subnet description now have distinctive references in the forms. Description is shown were relevant
 +  * Many forms now allow for column sorting in its primary grids

 +  * HP Comware-7 vendor module 
 +  * Additional tools that support 'Change-id' field and customizable approval settings
 +
 +=== Optional trial release ===
 +  * A rewrite of the service types including enhanced syntax checking and full API and custom-variables
