RPT Online has had MANY changes made to it since its creation. While we'd like to say that all are recorded below, we suspect that these are mostly the highlights and major changes to the interface.

07/28/06

• Set default year to 2006. No other year is selectable. Effectively removed the multiyear ability of the application in favor of a clean slate each year. See point below.
• A Clear RPT option has been added to flush the old information from the database and prepare for a new year's worth of information in either the entire RPT system or just information added by one college or department.
• On the "Manage Roles" page, users full names are now displayed. The button text has also been changed.
• Also on the "Manage Roles" page, a Unity ID/User Lookup has been added to allow users to be searched for if their Unity ID isn't known.
• The text changes requested by Tom Conte were made
• An interface has been added to upload sample documents to a college/department
• The text about the 15MB upload limit has been made more prominenet and is followed by instructions from Adobe about how to reduce the size of a PDF
• Documents can now be renamed
• Milestone bug that prevented a college from passing a professor back down to the department level has been resolved.
• Descriptions of milestones now appear on the bottom of the page that lists all the candidates and their current milestone.
• Comments are viewable only by RPT Committee Members at the level at which they are made. Departmental comments can only be seen at the departmental level, college at the college level, and so on.
• Added information on the date a candidate document was uploaded as well as what level it was uploaded at (i.e. D for Department, C for College)
• Revamped the document permission system. The current things are now true:
  • Documents can be viewed, deleted, and renamed at the level they were uploaded at;
  • Department documents can also be viewed at the college and university level;
  • College documents can be viewed at the college level and the university level
  • University documents can be viewed at the university level only

RPT launched for COE usage. Quickly realize that instructions on how to keep PDFs under 15MB is needed.

• Voting added
• additional ranks and sample documents added.
