July Release #1, 2023

The following updates have been implemented in AG5’s skills management software.

Stacking for prerequisite rules with auto-achievements

Previously, you could create prerequisite rules that, when completed, would auto-achieve target qualifications.

Now, you can stack them – helping you streamline your employees’ certification and qualification statuses.

For example, when an employee has achieved the qualifications “Start Machine A”, “Stop Machine A,” and “Maintain Machine A,” you can choose for him or her to automatically receive the “Operate Machine A” qualification. Additionally, you can now specify that employees with “Operate Machine A, B and C” qualifications will automatically obtain the “Machine Lines Know-how” qualification.

Added language and date format support for UK English

We are pleased to announce that support for English UK is now available in AG5! This also includes the date and time format for the British language.

The date format for English UK will be presented as DD/MM/YYYY, whereas English US will remain as MM/DD/YYYY.

Improved counter for results to approve

All qualification results that require administrative approval are now included in the counter in admin users’ “Control Center.” Previously, only those that required approval by the logged-in user were counted. The new manner of display aims to better enable admins to oversee and approve pending results.

Improved prerequisite rules dialogue

We’ve improved the dialogue for prerequisite rules, with a new button allowing you to specify the relationship type for a given qualification. Additionally, employee scope selection has been moved to the top of the dialogue.
