What We've Fixed

Conducted Audits Report Generation We've resolved an issue that was causing errors when generating the Conducted Audits report. Here's what's improved:

The Conducted Audits report now include a new Legend page, providing a directory of all audit questions with direct links to their corresponding data tabs — making it much easier to navigate large reports and locate specific information.

We've introduced a unique identifier for every audit question, preventing conflicts when questions are created or duplicated. The Conducted Audit Reports will now accurately count all questions without any duplication errors.

What This Means for You No action is required — the fix is applied automatically. Your Conducted Audits reports will now generate successfully, and the new Legend page gives you improved navigation throughout.

How This Version Will Be Made Available

This update will be automatically rolled out to all customers on Thursday 26th February between 10:00PM and midnight. No action is required — the new modules will be available in your ACC environment once the release is complete.
