Powerful New Features Boost Task Management and Process Tracking
Work-Relay Version 8 has arrived, bringing a suite of exciting updates designed to streamline task management and increase visibility across your organization. From an enhanced Task Manager experience to powerful new planning and governance capabilities, v8 equips your teams to work more effectively than ever. Here’s a breakdown of what’s new and how these updates can transform your workflows.
1. Enhanced Kanban Task Manager Dashboard
The Kanban view of the Work-Relay Task Manager has been reimagined to deliver a modern, intuitive experience fully aligned with Salesforce’s Lightning interface. This user interface overhaul improves information clarity, addresses accessibility concerns, and grants users greater control over dashboard configurations. With this new design, users can track and complete tasks more efficiently, enabling departments to seamlessly relay work and reach performance goals at an unparalleled pace.
2. Process Component Change Audit for Greater Transparency
Work-Relay v8 introduces the Process Change Audit Trail, a critical new feature for tracking and accountability. This audit functionality records process modifications, detailing when, who, and why changes were made. Users can even add comments when saving adjustments, fostering transparency and regulatory compliance. The new “Audit Trail” tab on the Process Overview Page allows managers to view detailed logs for every change, ensuring easy access to audit information whenever needed.
3. Predicted Duration Metrics for Improved Planning
With v8, Work-Relay introduces Predicted Duration Metrics, using statistical averages to estimate the time required for each process step. These metrics are visualized across components, including the Workflow Line Component and Progress Dashboard, making it easier for users to anticipate timelines. This enhanced visibility into task durations allows teams to better plan and manage processes, reducing bottlenecks and increasing productivity.
4. Process Analytics for All Users
Standard Work-Relay users can now access key Process Analytics via the new Lightning Component, “Process Totals.” Previously limited to Admins, this update empowers all users with access to essential metrics as determined by the Admin and can be viewed on any Salesforce Lightning Page. This wider accessibility promotes collaboration and enables teams to stay informed on process status across departments.

With Work-Relay v8, your organization gains powerful tools that make task management and process tracking simpler, faster, and more transparent. Soon, you’ll be able to take these new features for a test drive directly through the Salesforce AppExchange, where you can explore the enhanced functionality firsthand. Stay tuned for the official release, and prepare to see how future versions of Work-Relay can elevate performance across your teams and departments!

Also on the way is the Progress Dashboard Wizard, a user-friendly feature that simplifies dashboard customization, enabling teams to configure their views effortlessly. These forthcoming features are designed to bring even greater control and flexibility to your Work-Relay experience—stay tuned for more updates!
