Release Highlights 🎉

This update introduces the most impactful improvements in this release, designed to enhance how you work and get more value from the product.

Filter Collections - Save & Manage Your Filters

Managing multiple filter configurations is now easier with Filter Collections. Filter Collections let you save, rename, duplicate and switch between different filter configurations right within the grid. Create up to unlimited collections per grid, duplicate them, rename them, and switch between them in seconds.

Filter Collections

Autosave keeps everything up to date in the background. And for grids with existing filters, they'll carry forward automatically as the "Default" collection. Find out more about Filter Collections here.

Default Filter

New Enhancements ✨

New capabilities are introduced to give you greater flexibility and support evolving business needs.

Grid Controls — Import, Export & Toolbar Visibility

You can now control whether users can import or export data directly from Grid Controls. Both are enabled by default, but unchecking them removes the buttons from the grid entirely; no confusion, no clutter.

Import and Export records

We've also introduced two new checkboxes to hide the Filters and Rules buttons from the runtime toolbar. Perfect for when you've pre-configured everything and want users to stay focused on the data, not the settings.

Toolbar when “Hide filters in toolbar” is enabled.

Toolbar when “Hide rules in toolbar” is enabled.

As part of this update, access control options have been reorganized to the right panel for a cleaner admin experience. Find out more about the Grid Controls here.

Date Filters Made Simpler and Smarter

The old No Date / Calendar switcher has been removed. Date literals are always visible and ready to use. Choose from options like Yesterday, Today, Next Week, or enter a specific number of days (up to 99,999). Need a precise date? The calendar picker remains available.

This enhancement also applies to Rules and Filters, ensuring a consistent experience across configurations. Fiscal Year is currently not supported for Rules and Header Filters, but all other date literal options are available.

Date Filters

Display Formatting for Matrix X-Axis

We’ve enhanced the Matrix timeline by introducing predefined Date Format options for the X-axis. You can now control how dates are displayed using a simple dropdown without impacting the underlying data.

What’s New

• Date Format Dropdown Select your preferred date format from a list of predefined options in the Timeline settings.

• Built-in Format Preview Each option in the dropdown includes a sample display (e.g., MM/DD/YYYY – 12/01/2025) to help you choose the right format.

• Apply on Save The selected format is applied to the Matrix X-axis after saving your changes.

• Locale-Aware Display Date formats adapt based on user locale where applicable.
