Release 40

Published on:
September 10, 2018
**These Release Notes represent a single point in time. Future releases may impact the information below.**

In this release, we focused on enabling you to immediately see relevant work and we have enhanced filtering to enable you to pull the exact data you are looking for out of your unified content database.


Star functionality allows you to manually promote work items (Processes, Companies, Contacts) you are interested in. The stars are “smart” - they are automatically added to the processes you initiated or you get assigned to. Of course, if you manually star or unstar a work item, the system will display your selection. Star functionality impacts the entire Alchemy platform, so we updated every page you access from the menu in the left nav.


Enhanced Analytics are also rolling out in this release. They will help you visualize and learn from the data entered in Alchemy.


Below is detail and screenshots of the updates:
