Small but useful: the Selectus release 5.3

7. December 2022 In Release By Christine Benesch

The latest Selectus release provides useful enhancements to custom fields in the application workflow and to the management of referees and experts.

If you add a new custom field of the type “text” to the application workflow, you can now select whether the input field for the applicants is a single-line or multi-line field. For multi-line fields, you can specify the maximum number of characters.
Referees and experts can now optionally enter a comment when they reject a request, e.g. to justify their rejection or to suggest alternative experts.
Referees and experts may also provide feedback via email. There is now the possibility for staff (and other roles managing referees/experts) to enter an administrative comment to a reference request in order to store such feedback or other remarks in the system.

Furthermore, the new release contains many other smaller improvements. For a full description of the new release, please refer to the release notes.
